Lindsey Graham: To Our Friends in Israel, Knock Out Iran’s Oil Refineries
Breitbart ^ | 08/01/2024 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 08/01/2024 7:46:35 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Wednesday on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called on the Israeli government to follow up on its air strike that took out Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran earlier this week.

The South Carolina Republican urged Israel to “knock out” Iran’s oil refineries.

“Well, the bottom line is they are a radical Islamic terrorist designed to bend on the destruction of the state of Israel for religious reasons,” he said. “They want you to bend a need to Islam. They want to kill all the Jews and change our way of life. So I introduced legislation today to change the policy of the United States, and here’s the policy I’m trying to implement — no longer should we consider Hezbollah and Hamas different from Iran. I said today, an attack by Hezbollah against the state of Israel should be considered an attack by Iran against the state of Israel. This is a charade that needs to stop.”

Lindsey needs to shut up. He’s gonna blow the election for the GOP again this year if he doesn’t.

I'd rather focus on removing Muslims from the West than on starting a war with Iran.

And no, Neocons, they are not the same thing.

If Israel wants a war with ... whoever, let Israel do it on its own. It's own money and its own casualties.

Dear Israel,
I guess you’ve paid attention to what is happening to Lindsay’s Ukrainian friends following his war advice.

That depends on who wins the war. The inhabitants of the part of former Ottoman Syria called Palestine by some continue to dispute their displacement, they are not conquered, and claiming land by conquest is not accomplished by pronouncements, by "UN resolutions" or by an imaginary "international community", but by defeat of your enemies.

There's nothing wrong with conquest. The United States, my country, was established by violent revolution and then by conquest. We hold the Great Plains, the Mexican cession, and the Pacific Northwest by right of conquest. We even have "conquer we must" in our national anthem.

And if the State of Israel comes to live in peace by conquering its enemies and obtaining their acquiesence to their displacement, I'm fine with that - 100%.

I have no intention of advocacy for the Palestinians - I simply point out, again, that they are undefeated, they are unwilling to live at peace with the establishment of a religious state/national home for another nation on what they claim to be their territory, and the war will go on until one or the other side is defeated.

Israel has shown, again and again, tactical superiority. But they are in a bad strategic situation, which seems to me to be getting worse, and their enemies may yet prevail in a long war.

Does this suggest the terrorists in the US going over the border should do the same to the US oil refineries?

One more attack by Iran and Israel retaliate in kind this time, and really hurt them. If it leads to WW3, it will be Iran’s fault, not Israel’s.

Lindsay is like a broken clock, correct twice a day.
He’s correct, or nearly correct, about this one.
Only if IDF does the job, some might not learn the necessary lesson, preferring to attribute it to
When the “world’s leading power” does it (and it would only take an hour from USA’s assets in the region) everyone is forced to listen and deal with the reality that there’s real force behind it. Like, “you threatened to nuke USA and now take a look at what you’ve brought on yourself”
Nobody on earth will ever threaten to nuke American cities again. That’s a step forward, that’s progress.

At this point do we care who started WWI which killed 20 million people and severely wounded 20 million more?
