What are the differences among the Hamas, Hizbul Mujahiddin, ISIS and Boko Haram?

*Hamas: is a Sunni Palestinian Islamist
organization containing a military group within
it. Although some of its members have stated
goals that are aligned with the aims of jihadist
organizations, the primary goal of Hamas is to
end the Israeli occupation of Palestinian
territories.

*High-ul-Mujahideen: is a Sunni Kashmiri Islamist
and jihadist organization whose primary goal is
the independence of Kashmir.

*The Islamic State (formerly known as ISIS/ISIL):
is a Sunni Islamist and jihadist organization that
originated from Al Qaeda. It has claimed itself as
a caliphate . Rather than restricting itself to
certain areas like the previous two groups, it
believes that it has authority over all Muslims and
its aims are therefore global in scope. It seeks to
dominate the Muslim world first, starting with
Syria and Iraq, and then eventually establish its
authority over the rest of the world.

*Boko Haram: is a Sunni Nigerian Islamist and
jihadist group that seeks to establish an Islamic
state in Nigeria. It has recently declared its
support for the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), Al
Qaeda, and the Taliban.
