ISIS has flat-out told the world what they are after and it's not revenge for colonialism or anything like that. They want their big kingdom and their crazy religion to rule the world.
But it cannot be denied that western meddling/invading lead directly to the current situation. And that meddling ain't ancient history.
This isn't self-loathing or western guilt. It's just obvious. Look where they have taken their stand. It's not a coincidence.
