Allen West: Kerry Has Been an ‘Absolute Catastrophe’; Let Israel ‘Crush Hamas’

Allen West: ‘Allow Israel To Crush Hamas’ (Washington Free Beacon)

Former congressman Lt. Col. Allen West says the United States “should allow Israel to crush Hamas.”

Appearing on WMAL radio in Washington, D.C., West told co-host Brian Wilson and Larry O’Connor, “We should sit down with … all those who understand that this move of radical Islamism in the Middle East has to be crushed.”

Leveling harsh criticism on President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry, West questioned whether the world knows whose side we are on in the Middle East.

“He has been an absolute catastrophe,” West said with regard to Kerry. “President Obama, I don’t understand who he sides with. We have fled Libya because the ‘militia and rebels’ who we supported have now caused us to get out of Libya because they are Islamists,” West continued. “He supported the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and now that General el-Sisi has gotten rid of the Muslim Brotherhood, he does not want to support Egypt.”
