ISIS has more firepower because it is active in actual warzones.

Of course 9/11 was an expected consequence for America fucking with the world. But that doesn't make Bin Laden a hero.
So you first admit that there are Islamic terrorists organizations, but then you proclaim that America dealing with them is a fuck-up that deserved 9/11 as a consequence. How does that work? Should US just leave Islamic terrorists organizations alone?
For example, Boko Haram is plowing through Nigeria right now and nobody cares, not even the US.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
