Warning that death and destruction was on America's doorstep because of its arrogance and oppression of "God's chosen people," Minister Louis Farrakhan, the controversial Nation of Islam leader defended "Brother Leader Moammar Gadhafi" and called the U.S. action in Libya hypocrisy.

The more than two-hour press conference was held at Mosque Maryam, the international headquarters of the Nation of Islam, purchased in 1972 with a $3 million loan from Gadhafi.
