| #4 Before Russia went after the oil trucks, oil was their primary source of funds, I believe, followed in no particular order by antiquities, drugs, ransoms, girl slaves and taxes collected from the dhimmi population. But now their caliphate is contracting rather than expanding, so there is considerably less of all of those things in addition to the collapsed oil price. The recent bombing of money storage facilities added to the shortage as well. No doubt the financial advisors are explaining this to al Baghdadi as a black swan event. ;-) |

| #3 I wonder if a big part of their "lack of financial resources" is due to fracking - through the collapse of oil prices. |
