Resistance groups during WWII were not warring with each other by religious sect, tribes, family grudges, local warlords, etc. At least I have never read or heard that they were.

The problem we don’t know who is the ‘resistance’ in these place ... or what they are resisting.

I have in mind something like the "liberator" - cheap, single-use, disposable. To be used against an occupier at close range, but not very practical on a real battlefield.

The alternative is siege or frontal assault on a fortified position, very messy. If the locals can thin the ranks and keep ISIS worried about their 6, taking the city would be easier. Assuming that's what we want...
