Graham: ‘The World Will Never Be Safe as Long as the Ayatollah Is in Power
Breitbart ^ | 11/15/2023 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 11/15/2023 6:47:00 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Tuesday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) warned Iran was the driving force behind Hamas and the threat it poses against Israel.

The South Carolina Republican told FNC host Sean Hannity that Iran was “emboldened” by the weakness of the Biden administration.

Partial transcript as follows:

HANNITY: Senator, I want to go to the bigger picture and I certainly understand the sensitivity having Prime Minister Netanyahu on last night. He says, you know, there can be no victory without the destruction of Hamas. But if we’re going to really define victory, doesn’t Hezbollah have to be destroyed in the north? Doesn’t Iran at some on some level have to be dealt with?

You know, Joe Biden is offering, what, to free up another $10 billion while they are fomenting this war, while they are involved in the training of the terrorists on October the 7th, while they’re providing the munitions to fight these proxy wars. Joe Biden is freeing up $10 billion for the mullahs of Iran, you know, you know, beam me up, Scotty. There’s no intelligent life in that White House.

GRAHAM: Yeah. Well, I hope that’s not true. That’d be pouring gasoline on a fire. It’d be like giving the Germans $10 billion during World War II.

World will never be safe until South Carolina quits voting for this warmonger neocon clone of John McCain.

The World Will Never Be Safe as Long as the the Elites are elites

As far back in human history as when the first tribe was organized by chief and underlings, there have always been elites. Elites have always taken wealth from the general populace, and lived privileged lives. The only difference today vs. times past is one of form, not function. Today's billionaires and elected officials don't need the trappings of feudal lords, kings and feifdoms to do exactly the same brutal things elites of old did. What we, today, can do about it is the question.

And as far as American hostages go.... WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING THERE?

I’m thinking of going to Israel/The Middle East to visit family, friends, a vacation.

I ask myself ONE question...Is it SAFE?

The OBVIOUS answer is NO! So I don’t go. I don’t want to be killed or worse yet, become a hostage.

If you have never seen “Not Without My Daughter”, a TRUE story, you MUST watch it! (I have watched it 6 or 8 times)

And that wasn’t even “terrorists”, just Muslims, family!.

Going to Jerusalem or Tel Aviv is relatively safe.

Going to Gaza? That’s a whole other kettle of fish.

GFY fagboy Graham. Put this fag on the front lines since he loves war so much

Or how about putting his precious illegals on the front lines, i’m sure they love this country enough to fight for it.

True but we just remember thst it is all under God’s control for his own purposes- he stated that we should not be surprised or alarmed when we see these things happening because they must happen in order to bring about the final ending, but that doesn’t mean it will be anytime soon though- could be a other 1000 or more years yet, we just don’t know- I do know though that all things work together for the will of God.

Our own govt is a bigger problem. Iran can be easily isolated and contained, but due to to greed and corruption , Iran can continue down the road to the final battle. Releasing billions more , as in now again planned to the Iranians, tells you what?

Having read the article I agree with much of what Graham is saying here.

Yeah he is a grandstanding chickenhawk but he can be useful at times. We really have a shortage of statesmen these days.

“He’s right. And Biden just gave the Ayatollah another $10,000,000,000.”

He is wrong, and no one gave anything to anyone.

We, the USA were holding the Iranians own money hostage, and we are finally starting to release it.

I don’t know how Biden, or any other president, got control over what you say is Iran’s own money anyway, but to say that the timing is bad is a gross understatement since this money will be used to fund the wars against Israel and God knows what else.
