Qatar hosts three major US military bases on its territory. And it is becoming one of the most important clients for US military contractors. Earlier this year Qatar signed an $11.4 billion dollar arms agreement with the US. At the same time, according to the Calacalist report, Qatar is the major bankroller of ISIS and al Nusra in Syria and Iraq. It gives $50 million a month to jihadists in Libya. It gives Hamas $100m. in annual aid. And in the past two years Doha has provided Hamas with an additional $620m. dollars, including $250m. it transferred to Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal’s personal bank account, and $350m. in military aid to Hamas, transferred after the Egyptian military forced the Muslim
Brotherhood government from power last July. Add to that the $100m. per year that Qatar pours into Al Jazeera’s satellite network – which has dedicated itself to undermining pro-Western Arab regimes while popularizing the likes of al-Qaida and Hamas, and Qatar is the largest financier of international jihad in the world. Rather than notice that
Qatar and Turkey are playing a double game, and treat them with suspicion, the Obama administration has embraced them. Chances that Kerry will secure a cease-fire in the near future are small. In all likelihood, the government will be able to buy the time necessary to complete the mission in whole or large part. But the fact that the US has chosen at this juncture in the operation – with Israel enjoying unprecedented support from the most important Sunni states in the region – to side with Hamas and its state sponsors in their demand for an immediate cease-fire speaks volumes about the transformation of US foreign policy under Obama’s leadership.

ah, that article is trouble ... too much truth and haven’t even opened the link.
WE are bankrolling ISIS and Hamas and whatever jihadists come down the pike. Every dollar we give the SultAns and Emirs for bases and for oil that they do not need for their opulent lifestyle goes straight to Jihad against ultimately US.
selling out and subverting USA and our allies and faith traditions and moral values and defenses and our economy and jobs....
he’s been doing a very, very effective job in the WH

Why don't they make a video of this and show this on YouTube at the very least?
