Isis and Clinton Foundation both funded by Qatar and Saudi Arabia, says Julian Assange

Wealthy officials from Qatar and Saudi Arabia who donated money to Hillary Clinton's charitable foundation also provided financial support to Isis, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has claimed. In an extended interview at the Ecuadorian embassy in London with documentary maker John Pilger for RT, Assange said the same Saudi and Qatari officials could be seen to be supporting both the Clinton Foundation — founded by Clinton's husband Bill — and funding the activities of Isis.

Pilger asked if Assange believed that "this notorious jihadist group, called Isil or Isis, is created largely with money from people who are giving money to the Clinton Foundation"

"Yes," Assange replied.

The WikiLeaks founder pointed to an email exchange between presidential hopeful Clinton and her campaign manager John Podesta, leaked by his organization last month, which he believes "is the most significant email in the whole collection".
