Graham says ‘no amount ’ of Palestinian deaths would make him question Israel
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Tuesday that no number of civilian deaths in Gaza would cause him to question Israel’s goal of eradicating Hamas.
In an interview on CNN’s “NewsNight,” Graham made clear his support for Israel would not waver under any circumstance. Still, he said they should “be smart” and try to limit civilian casualties, which he said Israel is trying to do.
Asked whether there should be a threshold where he starts questioning Israel’s tactics in its war against Hamas, the senator said “no.”
“If somebody asked us after World War II, is there a limit to what you would do to make sure that Japan and Germany don’t conquer the world? Is there any limit to what Israel should do to the people who are trying to slaughter the Jews? The answer is no,” Graham said.
“There is no limit, but here’s what you need to do: Be smart. Let’s try to limit civilian casualties the best we can. Let’s put humanitarian aid in areas that protect the innocent. I’m all for that,” the South Carolina Republican continued. “But this idea that Israel has to apologize for attacking Hamas, who’s embedded with their own population, needs to stop.”
Israel confirmed Tuesday that its strikes hit a densely populated refugee camp, where a high-ranking Hamas official was strategically located. Pressed about the news, Graham underscored the gruesome tactics Hamas took Oct. 7.
After the murderous attack by Hamas, TV personality Tzufit Grant said that she is now ready to acknowledge that the Leftists Are Dead Wrong
Tzufit Grant, a well known left-wing Israeli television personality, met with hareidi women who volunteered to help the IDF, and spoke about the moment she agreed with Daniella Weiss, head of the right-wing Nachala movement, longstanding activist for communities in Judea and Samaria, and former mayor of Kedumim.
"I had an argument with right-wing supporter Danielle Weiss. I remember saying to her, 'How can you be so harsh towards Arabs? What, a Muslim woman has no mercy? A Muslim woman is not a mother?'" said Grant.
Weiss answered her, "A Muslim woman is a mother who prefers for her son to be a martyr than anything else."
Grant shared: "I told her, 'Enough, enough, I can't listen to this anymore.' Today, I'm suddenly willing to recognize this."
Grant also spoke about a conversation she had with her nephew a week ago, when he told her, "Everything that is happening here is not new, you just refused to believe it."
When Grant asked when this happened, her nephew replied: "The Fogel family was murdered and slaughtered. They were massacred. It just seemed like you didn't want to hear it. You weren't ready to listen to it."
She spoke during a journey to meet with hareidi women who helped pack supplies for IDF soldiers. "I think the hareidi world, today more than ever, feels a real existential need to be a part of what is happening here now, of this unity," she said.
Son of terror victim Rabbi Michael Mark fell in battle against Hamas terrorists
Second Lieutenant Pdaya Mark, son of terror victim Rabbi Michael Mark, who was murdered near Hebron in 2016, fell in battle with Hamas terrorists in Gaza.
Pdaya's cousin, Elchanan Kalmanson, fell in battle on October 7, as Jews throughout the country celebrated the Simchat Torah holiday. Kalmanson was battling Hamas terrorists who had overtaken communities in southern Israel, when he fell.
When he was 15, Pdaya and his family were driving to Jerusalem when a terrorist opened fire at them, shooting 29 bullets at the family's vehicle, which then overturned. The bullets hit the entire family, but Pdaya himself was hit only by shrapnel.
Three years after the terror attack, Pdaya's brother Shlomi was killed in a traffic accident while on his way to his job in the Defense Ministry. Pdaya's sister Orit Mark Ettinger is an Israeli media personality.
Rabbi Michael Mark, a cousin of former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen, was the dean of the hesder yeshiva in Otniel, and brother to Yochi Kalmanson, whose husband Rabbi Benny Kalmanson heads the yeshiva together with Rabbi Re'em Hacohen.
A notice published by the town of Otniel on Wednesday morning reads, "Blessed is the true Judge. With indescribable pain, the Otniel family announces the fall of Pdaya Mark in a heroic battle against Hamas terrorists. Details regarding the funeral and the week of mourning will be sent later. The Otniel family embraces the Mark and Kalmanson families. May we be comforted with the rebuilding of Jerusalem."
