WikiLeaks released an August 2014 e-mail from Hillary Clinton to John Podesta, who currently serves as her campaign chairman, stating that the governments of Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been providing clandestine financial and logistic support to ISIL and other radical Sunni groups in the region. Evidently President Obama has not heeded Hillarys concern, or chose to ignore it. In December 2014, Obama praised Saudi Arabias significant role in helping to fight ISIL (also known as ISIS and the Islamic State) during a meeting in Washington with the Kingdoms Minister of Interior Prince Mohammed Bin Naif Bin Abdulaziz. And at a meeting he hosted with Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, the Emir of Qatar, at the White House in February 2015, Obama said, "Qatar is a strong partner in our coalition to degrade and ultimately defeat ISIL."
Putting aside Obamas state of denial, which has characterized his whole approach in dealing with the Middle East mess he helped to create, the information in Hillarys e-mail is not particularly surprising. Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been playing us for years, pretending to be allies in countering terrorism while actually helping to advance the terrorists jihadist agenda. For starters, Saudi Arabian government front groups and individuals linked to the government have been implicated in possible involvement with the al Qaeda 9/11 attacks on our homeland. A member of the Qatari royal family, Abdallah bin Khalid al-Thani who headed Qatars ministry of Interior until 2013, is said by American intelligence services to have tipped off the 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed back in 1996 when he was already under indictment on terrorist charges, as FBI agents were closing in on Mohammed while he was in Qatar. In addition, ABC reported, based on statements from U.S. intelligence officials, that bin Laden himself visited Abdallah bin Khalid al-Thani in Qatar between the years of 1996 and 2000. Both countries funding of ISIS and al Qaeda in Syria and Iraq are just a continuation of this long pattern.
What makes Hillarys e-mail noteworthy is the irony that the governments of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and groups aligned with them, have not only been major funders of ISIS and other jihadist organizations, as she indicated, but they also have been big funders of the Clinton Foundation for years. Hillary has had no trouble taking money for her foundation from regimes that fund terrorists, oppress women, execute or imprison gays and apostates, and severely punish the exercise of free speech.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia contributed between $10 million and $25 million to the Clinton Foundation through June 2016, according to the Clinton Foundations own website (which only reports in ranges of total contributions). Wealthy individuals with close ties to the Saudi royal family have donated millions more. For example, Nasser al-Rashid, a multibillionaire adviser to the Saudi royal family, has donated between $1 million and $5 million.
A group calling itself Friends of Saudi Arabia also contributed between $1 million and $5 million. The National Review described the group as a thinly veiled public-relations organ of the repressive Saudi regime. National Review quoted a critique of Friends of Saudi Arabia by Ali Alyami, executive director of the Center for Democracy and Human Rights in Saudi Arabia: These are Saudi apologists. The country depends on propaganda. . . . When I saw the name Friends of Saudi Arabia, I knew exactly what they were going to do and who was paying them. I just wrote them off.
Although the Friends of Saudi Arabia group was trying to create a false positive image to American audiences of conditions for women in Saudi Arabia, which in fact are amongst the most repressive in the world, Hillary Clinton did not write the Saudi propaganda group off as long as the money kept flowing into her foundations coffers. As Alyami observed, Our government and our people are for sale, and the Saudis know how to buy.
The State of Qatar and a government-run World Cup Qatar host committee have also contributed to the Clinton Foundation. The State of Qatar gave between $1million and $5million to the Clinton Foundation. Qatars World Cup host committee, known as the Supreme Committee for Qatar 2022, donated between $250,000 and $500,000 to the foundation. The Supreme Committee for Qatar 2022 is an extension of Qatars government. Its Board of Directors is headed by Qatars Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani and consists of other high-level government officials such as the prime minister.
It has been all about pay-for-play, buying access and favors during Hillarys tenure as Secretary of State and looking forward to more of the same during her possible presidency.
In a letter from Senator Charles Grassley, Chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary, to Attorney General Loretta Lynch dated August 15. 2016, Grassley noted that prior to Hillary Clintons tenure as Secretary of State, Qatar was the recipient of approximately $271 million in military related export deals. During her tenure, Qatar was the recipient of approximately $4.3 billion a 1,482% increase. Saudi Arabia received a 97% increase in such export deals during her tenure.
With Hillary Clinton as president, we may hear some tougher talk than we have heard from President Obama criticizing Saudi Arabia and Qatar for their support of jihadist groups and their funding of the spread of jihadist ideology. However, it will be just words, since Hillary will not want to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs for her foundation.
But since they make their money the old fashioned way
off of slavery, rape, and murder, the Bushes, Obamas,
and Clintons cannot suck up enough.
WOW! Just think of the awesome contracts some of the FOB’s could get if helldabama were to be (s)elected. CHA frickin’ CHING!
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

The wahhabist tentacles are threaded throughout the US government and the halo of nomenklatura allied with the uniParty. They follow the Soviet model of infiltrating everywhere, like a poison gas. The enemy is not only inside the fence, they are inside the command structure.
Finally the correct interpretation of the email that sits in breaking news(starting with “Its over”).
This kind of thing is why I’ve maintained that I’ve blown out snot blobs with more moral fiber than the Clintons.
And, for what it's worth:
Albeit long, this well sourced summation of financial ties to IS/ISIL/ISIS is worth reading/bookmark: The Long Arm of Qatar It ties Turkey and the U.S. To this nightmare
Also consider, released detainees from GITMO were released to Qatar, including GITMO-5 (exchanged for traitor Bergdahl), a sanctuary for Islamic terrorism, including leaders of the Hamas terror group noting that Hamas political chief Khaled Meshaal continues to operate in [Qatar's capital] Doha "
That's just some of the disturbing ties . . .I'm sure there's plenty more.
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, ISIS and the Clinton Foundation all have the same goal - destroy America.
Evita has a goal only slightly different.
She wants to stuff her pockets... THEN destroy America
Then obama as cic backs out of the region and Isis flourishes armed by the Clinton state dept
obama and the Clintons are killing and wounding 100s of thousands of people and AMERICANS for money.
The corrupt media missed all of this.
