Well let's see where this leads now. I know the US has claimed Assad is buying the ISIS oil as well. Let's see if the Pentagon has proof.
"Russia has today accused the Turkish president's family of involvement in the illegal oil trade with ISIS - part of a black market enterprise which adds millions of dollars to the terrorists' coffers.
Speaking to reporters in Moscow, defence minister Anatoly Antonov sensationally revealed satellite images which, he claimed, showed tanker trucks freely crossing the Syrian border into Turkey.
Mr Antonov also said Russia had seen evidence that Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his family are linked to ISIS oil.
His comments come as both countries refuse to back down in an escalating war of words following the Turkish army's downing of a Russian jet it claims breached its airspace last week."
It claimed the footage was filmed from the skies above border crossings in ISIS-controlled Iraq and Syria
