Just spotted it while I was randomly browsing Greenlight. The story/settings could bring some heat on Internet forums in the upcoming days (marketing stunt again?)
The greenlight page:

For those wo don't wanna click, copy/paste of the description:
„IS Defense” is a game set in politically-fictional 2020 – where the
expansion of ISIS went out of hand. They took over all of Northern Africa,
spreading their genocidal understanding of the world’s order. Strongly
armed, vast in numbers and prepared for everything, the Islamic State is
launching the invasion upon Europe, over the entire Mediterranean Sea.
The player takes the role of NATO’s stationary machine-gun operator,
deployed to defend the shores of Europe. His task is to blast as many of
the invaders as possible, until his glorious death. To do so, he has NATO
support forces, his Machinegun and Rocket Launcher at his disposal. During the progress of this heroic defense, he gets the opportunities to upgrade his gear, his body and army rank – which affects the efficiency of the called support.
This game is our small side-project and is our personal veto against what
is happening in the Middle East nowadays. As well as an attempt at
resurrecting a pretty dead genre of games like „Operation Wolf” or
„Beach Head” – in a state of the art, modern adaptation.
EDIT: Due to the overwelming popular demand of one person, I link to the GOG wishlist entry:

EDIT 2: Wanna play a nice, modern and free "inspired by Operation Wolf"? Check out Major Mayhem!
