Senator Lindsey Graham Defends Israel's Actions, Says 'No Limit' to Justifiable Civilian Deaths in Conflict with Hamas

Graham's endorsement of Israel's action comes amid escalating conflict; over 8,500 Gaza civilians killed, while Israeli officials report 1,400 Israelis and foreign nationals dead from Hamas' October 7 terror attacks.

  • US Sen. Lindsey Graham stated that he finds no limit to the number of civilians it's justifiable for Israel to kill in its conflict with Hamas, drawing parallels between Israel's actions and the tactics used during World War II.
  • Graham argued that Israel does not need to apologize for attacking Hamas as they are embedded within their own population, implicitly blaming Hamas for the civilian casualties by positioning themselves amongst non-combatants.
  • Despite his unwavering support for Israel, Graham did advocate for efforts to limit civilian casualties and advised implementing humanitarian aid in areas that protect the innocent.
  • The latest conflict in Gaza has resulted in over 8,500 fatalities according to the Gaza Health Ministry, while Israeli officials report 1,400 Israelis and foreign nationals dead from Hamas' October 7 terror attacks.
  • Graham reiterated his belief that the destruction of Hamas is non-negotiable, pointing to their brutal tactics, and said his hope is for a better life for the Palestinian people in the aftermath of Hamas' eradication.
