Saudi is also a major source of support for ISIS. Since the latest offensive in Iraq, hashtags translating to #TheAgeOfTheISISConquest and #ABillionMuslimsForTheVictoryOfTheIsis have overwhelming been originating from Saudi Arabia. Almost 95 percent of all mentions of the latter hashtag emanated from Saudi Arabia over the last week, by far eclipsing those from Iraq and Syria, where the ISIS is actually operating at present. The geographic distribution of those mentions covers the entire Saudi Arabian territory.

Saudi support for the ISIS traces back to the conflict in Syria. Approximately 1,000 and 2,000 Saudi nationals have been involved in fighting inside Syria, with several hundreds believed to have already returned home. The Saudi government in February issued a royal decree banning Saudis from fighting in foreign conflicts. Both the Syrian and Iranian governments have drawn attention to purported financial links between ISIS and Saudi Arabia in recent weeks. Syrian state media directly accused Saudi Arabia of funding ISIS in an editorial on June 12, while the Iranian leader President Hassan Rouhani made a thinly veiled reference to “Muslim countries that support the terrorists with their petrodollars” in remarks on the website of the Iranian state broadcaster in recent days.

...ISIS already maintains a presence in the country and even has sympathizers in the Saudi military

I was writing specifically about monetary funding.

While SA funded them in the outset as their team to take out Assad, they have become self-sustaining through their booty and the oil sales from their occupied areas.

Why we are not bombing oil fields is beyond me...but that is a discussion for another day.

The link below connects the links between the bad Saudis to 9/11 and now the IS threat.

When, A U.S. President IS Muslim Brotherhood Member, bad stuff happens in the Middle East and around the world.

Now, we have an excellent insight into cui bono, or who benefits from all of the past lies and bs about what has happened and is happening in Arab/Islamo lands.

This should be read by any us with questions about what has happened and is happening in the Arab lands.

Excerpt from the link below: “If you’ve ever beaten your head against the wall trying to figure out the post-9/11 strategy of the U.S. and why we went into Afghanistan and then Iraq instead of confronting Saudi Arabia directly, the video below might help explain the thinking. It was relayed to us by a reliable Middle Eastern source who has been monitoring the court proceedings (note Arabic subtitles for trial)”
