Gohmert: We Don't Need to be Helping the 'Moderate' Islamists

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) offered some common sense during the debate over whether the US should arm and train the so-called moderate rebels in Syria.

Gohmert notes that despite more than a decade of working alongside the US, Afghanistan jihadists keep killing Americans. They just killed four more.

Are we smart enough to separate moderates from radicals in the Syrian rebel groups, supposing that there even are any moderates?
