When you do the interview, could you please ask what economic system they are using for major services like electricity, gas, and water? Is it a socialist style system where the local population is dependent on the ad hoc ISIL government to pay for and provide the services or is it a free market system where those services are provided by private entrepreneurs.

Also if you could ask if the government system is clearly a theocracy or if it has fascist leanings (militaristic system with a centralized economy and a constant enemy who must be attacked)?
