With the end game being the forging of an alliance between Iran and Iraq, what we have done is, the policies of this administration, without a single question being posed by this majority, we have created a hegemony in the Middle East, and that is the Islamic Republic of Iran. Don't think that this photo is the last time we will see these gentlemen together. The current prime minister during the Saddam Hussein years spent considerable time in Tehran and in Syria. I am not even blaming him. Where is the administration? Where is the House International Relations Committee, which I serve on with my friend and colleague from California, Diane Watson? Why isn't there hearing after hearing after hearing asking these questions?
