HTS/ISIS is not refusing to fight israel because they are afraid of them. These are guys who were fully prepared to die to kill other muslims and Arabs. They are refusing to do it because they are allied to Jews and are probably ideologically aligned with them.
HTS/ISIS are absolutely capable of fighting and inflicting damage on Israel. The same kind of swarm attacks they have done in the civil war can be done against the Jews, whose forces are spread thin and are tired and would be totally shaken by such a surprise attack.
They could do one of their lightning offenses at the Jewish forces on the border with Israel and make significant progress and inflict severe damage on the Jewish state. They would lose men, but they never cared about that before. They fought a coalition of Russia, Iran and Syria and lost thousands upon thousands to superior forces. They are not afraid of death.
So why don't they fight the Jews? We have to assume it's because of some ideological alignment and agreement between their leadership and the Jews.
