[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the attractions of ISIS is that it bills itself as pure Islam, free from the financial corruption of many of the Arab  regimes.  I do not for a minute believe that ISIS's leaders are not siphoning off funds from their oil revenue and donations for their own benefit.

Let's set some forensic accountants to work, freeze their assets in whatever financial institutions they've put them and publicize.  Exposing their financial corruption will go a long way to showing duped followers that ISIS is yet another cynical power and wealth grab by an elite few. [/quote]

But first we should go after the money that is funding ISIS.  There must be complicit financial institutions--there is way too much money coming in daily for there not to be.  If we can stop the flow of money and freeze what has been stored up, ISIS will run out of funds to pay its soldiers.  A lot of them, particularly the Iraqis and Syrians, are in it for the income to provide for their families and will fall away if they are not paid.[/quote]
