US Sen. Lindsey Graham staunchly supports Israel’s retaliatory attacks on Gaza, unfazed by the growing number of casualties.
-
Graham emphasizes that his support for Israel knows no bounds, even as the death toll in Gaza exceeds 8,500, as reported by the Gaza Health Ministry.
During a CNN interview, Graham boldly asserts that Israel’s war against Hamas justifies sacrificing any number of civilian lives.
When asked about a limit on civilian casualties, Graham dismisses the notion, drawing parallels between Israel’s actions and the fight against the global threats posed by Japan and Germany during World War II.
According to Graham, Israel should not apologize for targeting Hamas, even if it means casualties among the civilian population, due to Hamas’ practice of embedding itself among civilians.
While Graham advocates for minimizing civilian harm and providing humanitarian aid, he insists that the goal is to annihilate Hamas, placing the blame for the casualties squarely on the shoulders of the terrorist organization.
Gaza’s health ministry reports that Israel’s military operation has resulted in the deaths of over 8,500 people. The operation was launched in response to the Hamas terror attacks on October 7 that claimed the lives of 1,400 Israelis and foreign nationals, as confirmed by Israeli officials.
The latest airstrike by Israel, aimed at a senior Hamas commander, struck a refugee camp in northern Gaza, resulting in the deaths of 50 individuals, according to health authorities.
The Biden administration initially supported Israel’s response to the October 7 attacks but has recently expressed concerns about the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
