IS didn't appear out of the blue, they started in Iraq through alqaeda and ISI and were fully supported by arab nations and even a large number of governments. That was when their sole objective was to find fight and kill the shia and everyone was alright with that.
As for syria, the same ideology was already present from the beginning through jubhat Al Nusrah/ FSA (first groups to emerge in Syria). ISI members from Iraq later went to join the Syrian alongside jubhat Al Nusrah. Until the nusra/IS split happened eveyone in the arab and Muslim world was supporting them, they were even receiving weapons.
They were loud and clear from the beginning with the notorious anthems "we want to behead Shias and Alawites", as well as their plans to bomb religious sites for "blasphemy"
This was what changed the Iraqi view in the beginning otherwise the vast majority of shia Iraqis were anti-Bashar, including myself.
Trying to hide their stink at this stage and pretend that their ideology never existed from the beginjng of the revolution is ludicrous.
