The death of a prominent Islamic State leader prompts us to ask fundamental questions about the so-called war on terror. When we see terror groups mobilizing, there is often that jarring moment when we all wonder how is it possible with all the global military might terrorism can still prosper?
More puzzling is how these terrorist groups buy arms, vehicles and ammunition to wage their jihad. Do they simply steal oil and sell it on the international markets, or is there something else at play that we should all know about if we are to defeat these hate filled mercenaries?
To work out who really funds Terror Inc, Host Ross Ashcroft travels to Kakanomics – the leading economics festival in Norway. Here, he talks to the former Norwegian ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Carl Schiotz Wibye and the terrorism expert Loretta Napoleoni.
