How are the ISIS allowed to sell oil for cash? Wouldn't a political intervention be better to slow down their cash flow? Simply make it illegal to buy oil from ISIS..

It's because a lot of influential people benefiting from illegal oil trade take as an example the Turkish president.

How about SIMPLY making it fucking illegal for psychopaths, that retards vote into office, to systematically destroy country after country thereby IN EFFECT creating more and more terrorism which they then can bomb to create even more of the same. How about making it illegal for retarded people to participate in elections? Would that help? I guess if you need to get rid of a tree you start chopping relatively close to the roots. Maybe some people start from the top picking off leaves and working their way down until the tree is gone, wouldn´t be surprised.

Ministry of Defence (MoD) bosses warned Prime Minister David Cameron against claiming there are 70,000 moderate Syrian rebels ready to fight Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), fearing the assertion would echo Tony Blair’s Iraq “dodgy dossier.”
The revelation comes after the House of Commons voted to extend airstrikes from Iraq into Syria, with the first bombs falling hours later.

According to the Times newspaper, military figures also feared Cameron’s claim of such a rebel force may lead MPs to wrongly believe there was a ready-made army on the ground in Syria, therefore influencing the vote.

They are not fighting each other. But some of the FSA groups such as the Al Nusra Front and the Ahrar Al Sham are having issues with the Kurdish groups. Other than that, they are united in their fight against the Syrian government. They have some-sort of an understanding with the ISIS, and many of the rebel fighters travel to Raqqa to receive training from the ISIS. The UK government can use them to fight against Assad (if they are not already doing that), but they are not going to fight the ISIS.
