If its true that money is the root of all evil, then it would behoove the United States-led coalition to find wherever ISIS (Islamic State, IS, ISIL, Daesh) keeps its dough, and pulverize it. Because, then you’d be — both literally and figuratively — ridding the world of evil.

Well, guess what? That’s exactly what they did Monday, according to the U.S. military Tuesday.

Coalition airstrikes incinerated a warehouse in Iraq that was being used by ISIS to store millions of dollars in cash.

It’s part of their plan to hit the organization where it hurts most — their piggy banks.

This from USA Today:

Coalition aircraft targeted a “cash distribution center” near Mosul, Iraq’s second largest city, which is under control of the extremist group, the U.S military said in a daily report on details of airstrikes.

A senior Defense official said the coalition has targeted similar facilities in the past. The official, who is not authorized to discuss the strikes publicly, said coalition aircraft dropped two 2,000-pound bombs on the building. Mosul has been under Islamic State control since 2014, when the militants swept into Iraq from Syria.

In recent months, coalition airstrikes have targeted oil production and distribution centers in territory the Islamic State controls in Syria, reducing the group’s daily oil revenue to less than $1 million from a peak of about $1.3 million.

According to the U.S. military officials, the coalition received a much greater understanding of the terrorist organization’s cashflow after a U.S. special operations mission this past summer killed a top ISIS capo in Syria and — more importantly — seized his computers.
