Are ISIS really just Luke and Han?

I just came across This Video in which a former CIA employee discusses something I’ve long said:
No one thinks of themselves as the bad guy.
I recommend watching but if you can’t the point she discusses is this:
When you watch films like Star Wars, The Hunger Games, Independence Day… there hero is a small group of untrained rabble, rebelling against this big, technologically advanced invasion.
To them, we are the Empire, and they are Luke and Leia.
That when you talk to them about their motivations, it’s not just “death to America”, it’s worry for their families, their children, their way of life.
Thoughts?
