Modern Iraq (even if you think of only the actual ISIS of 2013-2014, beginning with ISI in 2006), Egypt, Afghanistan under previous gov, Nigeria and a shitload of other African countries across the entire continent, Phillipines... "Israel's enemies"?
Syria was already destabilised, what ISIS (a de facto Iraqi invasion) actually destabilised was the Syrian rebellion that was plunged into infighting and lost the momentum at the verge of victory in late 2013. Somewhat ironically, the dominant faction at the time was ISI's very own JAN (Julani having been sent by Baghdadi personally), before ISI declared ISIS and attacked JAN/AQ and everyone else.
If Israel wanted to destabilise the enemy, they would support the Kurdish separatists in Iran. Who would have even zero problem working with Israel, unlike the Arab separatists in Iran (who had been championed by Saddam, with the Persian oppression of Arabistan being the official reason why Saddam invaded Iran back in the day).
ISI was started by former Saddam's people btw. Following the deliberate radicalisation of Iraqi Sunnis in the Faith Campaign during the last decade of the previously secularist regime. Along with Saddam's creation of Kurdish Islamist groups to destabilise the Kurdish separatist movement that took control of much of the north after the Gulf War. And was then supported by Assad family (previously the third nemesis of Saddam family, other than Iran and Israel, then America) against the Americans and the new Iraq.

Balkans, and I'm pretty versed in Muslim politics and ideologies (and religion).
In the Balkans too, for that matter.
