Title: ISIS
Post by: Sir Tigger KC on 23 June 2014, 00:07:47: Who's funding and equipping them, and why? ??? As they seem to be a bit better than your average ragtag militia. :-\

Post by: chrisgixer on 23 June 2014, 00:13:12: Same people who funded them in Syria. Assad. How else did he escape the lynch mob, murder half the population. Etc etc...

...I'm guessing obviously. No idea in reality. But that's who I'd bet in if I had to.

Post by: chrisgixer on 23 June 2014, 21:01:27: While there have Hummers as well, it was noted they have a lot if Russian armour. Hence the Syrian thinking, along with the more obvious point that that's where they came from, of course.

I would guess at the Saudi's :y

bang on.. but they also self finance their group.. they robbed a central bank in Musul/mosul.. and they rob everywhere..

they also use russian weapons because those weapons are sold freely in that zone.. cheap as chips

Post by: aaronjb on 24 June 2014, 15:03:55: I'm sure I remember reading that after the bank robberies they are likely the most well funded terrorist organisation currently in existence..
