so the pest isolated the cholera ???
some ultra wealthy private citizens, princes, and sheikh of all that states involved have the hobby -beside racecar collections and falconry hunt- to secret financial support their Sunni terror splinter group factions of choice for the reason of Wahhabism and Salafism religious interpretation spreading in contested areas with their hated Shiite enemy and a good stance with Allah in the afterlife.
and those governments theirselves are pumping money in building Wahhabism and Salafism mosques and education centers all over Europe , from which a few years in the making later those homegrown terrorists 'suddenly emerged' like the dangerous tip of an submerged iceberg of close supporters drifting in the growing see of strong traditional believers generated by those mosques, who theirselves openly also want a change of the European society from within to a Sharia-leaning stance.

Is it that surprising? When that Russian jet was shot down by the Turks, French media was saying that the IS fuel convoy that the Russian plane targeted was destined for Erdogan's son who was allegedly dealing with IS for the fuel... It ain't rocket science to deduct that Turkey is closer to IS than it will publicly admit, as is Qatar - so is Turkey's support of Qatar as strange as one might first think. And as to the Ottoman issue - if Turkey wants to be the leader of the Sunni world (as it was under the Ottomans) it is going to have to dislodge Saudi Arabia first...
