Louie Gohmert: “I do appreciate all the time and energy that our House Republican leaders have put into this issue, trying to work with…”

“I do appreciate all the time and energy that our House Republican leaders have put into this issue, trying to work with the President, but the truth is that, if you look back under this President as Commander in Chief, we trained people in Libya. We provided weapons to Libya that were then used against us in Benghazi. There are Americans dead because this administration felt compelled to go in and take out Qadhafi. Sure, it was under the guise of NATO, but we did it. This administration saw to the bombing of Qadhafi. It refused to allow him to leave peacefully, and it has cost us. Because Libya fell, so did Algeria and Tunisia, and it jump-started, as I have said before, the new Ottoman Empire, the new caliphate that the Muslim brothers and so many of the radicals are saying they are going for. One of the big problems, too, when we go in and train, as this President wants to do for the Syrians, they learn our tradecraft. They use it against us, as they did at Benghazi. Al Qaeda today has indicated that all jihadists must combine together. That pressure is going to get greater and greater. Also, today, the Muslim Brotherhood cleric who had been kicked out of Qatar--I believe he is now in Turkey--is calling for an all-out Muslim Brotherhood opposition to the United States. Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the head of the Muslim Brotherhood, is likewise begging jihadists to combine together in their fight against the United States. Where is Qaradawi? He is in Turkey.…”
