German Minister: Obama “Friend” Qatar Is Financing ISIS



Of course.

From Al Arabiya:
Germany’s development aid minister, Gerd Mueller, on Wednesday accused Qatar of financing the militant group the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). 
“A story like this always has a history,” he said in an interview with public broadcaster ZDF. “Who is financing these troops? Hint: Qatar,” he added. Vice Chancellor and Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel this week urged a “debate” about who has been and is financing ISIS, but without naming any countries. 
Meanwhile, Germany said it is ready to send weapons to support Iraqi Kurds in their battle against ISIS, Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said. It is a controversial issue for Germany which, burdened by its history of aggression in two world wars, has often been reluctant to send troops into foreign conflicts and which as a rule does not send weapons into war zones.

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

In addition to the above, further confirmation of this administrations complicity, consider:
Obama's preference for the identity of ISIL vs. IS or ISIS via Financial Times

Flashback: Here's What’s Happened Since President Obama Freed the Leader of ISIS 5 Years Ago

In June, we learned that the head of ISIS, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, had been in US custody but was released in 2009 when President Obama closed down Camp Bucca in preparation for the US withdrawal of troops (yes, the withdrawal he repeatedly denies having anything to do with) from Iraq.
