ISIS pay cuts: Terror group reportedly slashes fighters' salaries
[FOXNEWS] In a sign the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
terror group could be pressed for cash, a new report claims its leaders slashed the salaries of all its fighters in half.

The "Treasury Ministry" of ISIS blamed "exceptional circumstances," The Jerusalem Post reported.

The terror group reportedly did not explain exactly what those circumstances were. However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes...
the announcement came out in December, before the Pentagon revealed that a January Arclight airstrike took out an ISIS cash stockpile in djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, Iraq.

Terror leaders said this would not affect the collection and distribution of Zakat, a religious tax benefitting the poor, the Post adds.

Treasury minister Bayt al-Mal reportedly cited the Koran, which prioritizes "jihad of wealth," or spending in beneficial or charitable ways, over "jihad of soul."
Rudaw adds:
The coalition has since afflicted an even graver toll on the group's financial operation when it bombed the headquarters of Bayt al-Mal in djinn-infested Mosul incinerating millions of dollars in cash that ISIS had gained through oil smuggles and illegal trade.

The ISIS governor in Mosul has issued a fatwa which allows members of the group to get further money by taxing the locals who are also likely in fairly dire straits after living under the yoke of the group since June 2014.
