In observance of the chaos and carnage that has come from the Hamas-Israel conflict, one U.S. politician is calling on Israel to do whatever is necessary to fight back against the terrorist group Hamas and Iran. South Carolina Senator Linsey Graham even went so far as to state that ‘we’re in a religious war’.
In a new video, Graham is taking a hard stance against anyone who would blame Israel for the ongoing violence in the Middle East. In a speech, he unapologetically stands with the Jewish state as it faces brutal attacks from Hamas and Iran. He also makes it clear that this is not a land dispute, but rather a religious war.
I am appalled by anyone who would blame Israel for the ongoing situation in the Middle East.
Iran and Hamas do not want a two-state solution, they want a one-state solution. They want to destroy the Jewish State.

Speaking out against those who have jumped to condemn Israel in the aftermath of Hamas’ attack that has left more than 1,200 dead, Senator Graham painted a stark picture of what was at stake and offered some harsh words for those attempting to spread false narratives about the conflict.
He rebuked those such as Cornel West and Black Lives Matter group who were trying to hold Israel responsible for the actions of its enemies. “This is just absolutely appalling, disgusting” declared Graham. He went on to point out that Hamas doesn’t want peace or co-existence, they want nothing less than complete destruction of the Jewish State.
Lindsey Graham, a sitting US Senator, has just casually declared that the United States is in a holy war. Absolutely reckless and insane. https://t.co/okjHDUeADG

The Senator was quick to call out Secretary General of The United Nations Antonio Guterres for his comments attempting to put this tragedy into context and suggested that he’s appeasing terrorism by doing so.
Additionally, Graham had some strong words directed towards young people attending Harvard University along with House Democratic Progressives known as “The Squad” for their decision to side with terrorists over democracy: “Kids at Harvard: You’re blaming the Israelis? Please. This is just absolutely appalling, disgusting.”
Furthermore, he stated unequivocally that there is no alternative other than an Israeli invasion into Gaza in order to take down Hamas once and for all – much like we took down Germany during World War II – while simultaneously holding Iran accountable if things escalate any further.
