In an exclusive interview with journalist John Pilger of Russia Today, whistleblower Julian Assange accuses Hillary Clinton of misleading Americans about the true scope of Islamic State's support from Washington's Middle East allies.

Julian Assange says Hillary promoted the creation of ISIS and used the Clinton Foundation and her position as US Secretary of State to advance questionable agendas on behalf of the establishment and their Gulf allies, reports RT network funded by Russian government.

Assange said: "There's an early 2014 email, from very early on, so not so long after she left secretary of state to her campaign manager John Podesta.

"It states that ISIS is funded by Saudi Arabia and Qatar - the governments of Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

"I think this is the most significant email in the whole collection."

John Pilger, who was interviewing Assange, asked if this meant the same people who funded ISIS were funding Hillary Clinton.

The 45-year-old replied: "Yes".

Assange has been holed up in the embassy since 2012 after refusing to surrender to extradition charges over rape allegations in Sweden.

He also fears being hit with treason charges by the US.

He added: "All serious analysts know, and even the US government has agreed, that some Saudi figures have been supporting ISIS and funding ISIS, but the dodge has always been that it is some 'rogue' princes using their oil money to do whatever they like, but actually the government disapproves.
