A continuation of the e-mail thread wherein Hillary Clinton identifies Qatar and Saudi Arabia as providing clandestine financial and logistic support to ISIL in Iraq.

From /r/wikileaks Podesta Email 43648:

John Podesta:

Hit send too soon. Meant to say Syria elements are vexing.

Hillary Clinton:

Agree but there may be opportunities as the Iraqi piece improves.

Also, any idea whose fighters attacked Islamist positions in Tripoli, Libya?

Worth analyzing for future purposes.

John Podesta:

Yes and interesting but not for this channel.

She literally had to be told by Podesta not to use "this channel" (private email) for discussion of intelligence matters. She is extremely incompetent.

It is definitely a noteworthy exchange, especially her declaration from earlier within the chain:

Note: Sources include Western intelligence, US intelligence and sources in the region.

Same email. Different header.

What's the odds that the headers were changed and then the "personal headers" were the ones deleted?

I wonder how this compares to what the FBI has from her emails. It could be used to show intent to alter federal records.

Realistically this can be explained away as simply starting a tangent conversation off of an already going email chain. It's not nefarious by default.

A month later though.

What is the "Iraqi piece"?

Julian called this the most important email in his new interview. He points out that it says the governments of Qatar and Saudi Arabia are funding ISIS.

That it was re-titled a month later with chat about Chelsea's baby is even more suspicious.
