WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, has revealed the small fortune earned by the US Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, from selling arms to ISIS in Syria.
Clinton earned $100k from her role as Director of French company Lafarge that was tasked with arming rebels in Syria.
In an interview with Democracy Now, Assange claimed that Clinton, along with the office of the Secretary of State, was handling the United States’ secret mission aimed at toppling Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and his government.
When asked about evidence in Clinton’s emails, Mr. Assange told the interviewer, “Hillary’s hacked emails include info on Hillary arming the rebels in Syria – which ultimately became the Islamic State militant group,”
“As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton helped arm the terrorists in Syria and Libya, she helped overthrow President Assad, and even laughed about the death of former Libyan President Gaddafi”, he added.The whistleblower, who’s currently held up in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, urged the Federal Bureau Investigation (FBI) to prosecute Hillary Clinton for these charges, “if they really want to”, adding that her emails were archived like “the library of Alexandria, there is proof within those emails that she knowingly armed jihadist including ISIS”.
Earlier, immediately after FBI announced not to file any charges against Hillary Clinton over leaked emails scandal, the Wikileaks head had announced to publish more information about her.
He said that the information could easily be used by the government to indict Clinton, but was skeptical if the FBI would ever actually pursue this course of action.
“The contents of those emails will confirm that Clinton dismissed the reluctance of Pentagon officials to overthrow Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, while they had also predicted the possible outcome of the war in Libya, that we are witnessing today,” he said.
