ABC News: US Officials Ask How ISIS Got So Many Toyota Trucks

U.S. counter-terror officials have asked Toyota, the world’s second largest auto maker, to help them determine how ISIS has managed to acquire the large number of Toyota pick-up trucks and SUVs seen prominently in the terror group’s propaganda videos in Iraq, Syria and Libya, ABC News has learned.

Toyota says it does not know how ISIS obtained the vehicles and is “supporting” the inquiry led by the Terror Financing unit of the Treasury Department -- part of a broad U.S. effort to prevent Western-made goods from ending up in the hands of the terror group.

WNU Editor: Its always about the money.

Toyota is big in the USA .. The "moderates" must be having auction sales maybe .. or something far more sinister ..

What I find kinda strange is after seeing the way, back in the 1991 Gulf War the Highway of Death Saddam's retreating troops chewed up, and seeing ISIS lined up on the highway in long lines why haven't they been chewed up?
