Reports from the UK Parliament released on Tuesday seams to concludes that
there is enough evidence of various US allies funding and supporting ISIS. The report, released by the Ministry of Defense, shows that ISIS received funding from within Arab Gulf states:
“[There]
is historical evidence of financial donations to Daesh [IS] from within
Gulf states. Furthermore, it is understood that family donations are
being made to Daesh, through the unregulated Alternative Value Transfer
Systems (AVTS).”
AVTS include ways of globally transferring money that
includes little information about the individuals involved in the
transaction – examples include the open source online currency Bitcoin.
The MoD cited as evidence an incident
in September 2014 when an ISIS official was sanctioned by the US Treasury Department after receiving a $2m donation “emanating from the Gulf”.
