On Sunday, conservative Senator Lindsey Graham said on CNN that Israel should threaten to “blow up” Iran’s oil refineries if Hamas does not release the hostages it kidnapped during its Oct. 7 terrorist attack..
“As to the hostages, I would hold Iran responsible for their well-being,” the South Carolina Republican told CNN’s Jake Tapper.
“If I were the state of Israel, I would tell the ayatollah, that if these people do not come home alive — the ones that are left alive — and if we don’t get the bodies of the fallen, we’re going to blow up your oil refineries,” Graham said. “That’s the only way you’re ever going to get the hostages released is to put pressure on Iran.”
Graham also said that the Hamas attacks were generated “to stop normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel.”
“It’s a nightmare for Iran and her proxies, for the Arabs and Israelis to reconcile and make peace and take the region in a different direction,” he said.
Graham also discussed the Democratic National Convention, slamming Kamala Harris and the Democrats.
But rather than the “joy” the media claimed, Graham called the DNC a “hate fest” against Republicans.
“It was light on policy, heavy on insults,” said Graham, adding that he has told former President Donald Trump that he will win the election if he focuses on policy.
“Americans are not joyful when they go to the gas station and fill up their car,” he said. “They’re not joyful when they make their mortgage payment. They’re not joyful when they go to the grocery store. People are hurting and this whole joy love fest doesn’t exist in the real world.”
“If you’re waiting on Kamala Harris to come up with new policies, you’re going to die waiting because she will continue what they’ve been doing for the last four years.”
