Re: He's not completely wrong

ISIS has billions of dollars sitting around, I would think that there're at least a few ISPs / TelCo's that are unscrupulous enough to give them a connection. Orascom (an Egyptian company) provide cell services to the North Korean government and they happen to have fiber in Syria, I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't have any qualms about letting ISIS use their links.

As for Satellite links, ISIS has been known to create fake non-profits and charities and I wouldn't put it past them to use one to purchase a bunch of Sat Phones and internet subscriptions.
