There is plenty of money flowing to ISIL from wealthy individuals in the Sunni GCC countries (Saudi, Qatar, UAE, primarily), but the ruling houses of these countries would not survive an extremist Sunni revolution. They are universally reviled by Salafists and Wahhabis of all stripes, and are about as devout as the Borgias.
Yeah... that whole caliphate thing wouldn't work out very well for the Kingdoms (Saudi Arabia, Bahrain).
