treasury secretary, jacob lew, because many of the countries are being represented by finance ministers is who knows more about money than people who have expertise in this area. they want to send out a symbolic message as well as having the force behind it to go after the money funding isis. as you mentioned they want to stop the oil and gas sales, specifically going after money used for kidnapping for ransom as well as money that isis is getting from the sale of antiquities. especially significant today, this resolution can be backed up by sanctions against countries that violate it, including the possible use of military force. that is highly unlikely, but the bottom line here today, the u.n. wants to send a message to isis this is a resolution that has teeth. the question now, does the u.n. have the resolve to back up this resolution. in the past other resolutions simply did not have the bite. >> you mentioned a couple of ways isis makes money, david lee. can you tick off the list for us? >> reporter: here's the laundry dries. bank looting brought in between $500 million and $1 bill
