Back when David Cameron was Britain's prime minister, he commissioned an inquiry into revenue streams for extremist groups.
Cameron agreed, reluctantly, to produce the report if the Liberal Democrats supported an extension of British airstrikes on the Islamic State militant group.
They did, and the study was commissioned. Now, nearly 18 months later, that report has become famous. And it's not because of what's in it. At least, not exactly.
Theresa May, who succeeded Cameron as prime minister last year, has refused to say whether the report is done or whether it will ever be released to the public. This has fueled frustration and suspicion. Many people suspect that the research ties Saudi Arabia to terrorist attacks in Britain, a finding that could damage an important alliance.

May the terrorists be with you - yes, they are terrorists, but they are our terrorists and they've got lots of money!
