Re: Isis’s slaughter of the Yazidi is a new Rwanda happening before our eyes
ISIS control oil and gas fields in Syria and Iraq producing output which can be sold for over $3 million per day on the black market. This means that even before you factor in tax collection from the areas under control, their annual income is over $1 billion per year. Add into that fund raising efforts amongst sympathetic Sunni populations in the Gulf, and you have a huge amount in income without needing any foreign government support.
