It follows an Islamic fundamentalist doctrine of jihad and is in allegience with Al-Qaeda. It originated in 1999 as Jama’at al-Tawhid wal-Jihad (The Organisation of Monotheism and Jihad) before adopting its current name in 2014; and was active in the Iraqi insurgency (2003–2011) and the Syrian Civil War (2011–present). It is currently led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (born Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim al-Badri). Iraqi intelligence obtained information in 2014 that ISIL had assets worth US$2 billion, although this figure is contested.
