U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) issued a statement following Iran's large-scale missile attack on Israel.
"This is a moment of choosing for the free world regarding Iran. The Ayatollah and Iranian regime are religious Nazis who want to destroy the state of Israel – their words, not mine," Graham said.
"They want to purify Islam and attack the United States – again, their words, not mine," he continued.
Graham urged the Biden Administration to coordinate an overwhelming response with Israel, starting with targeting Iran's oil refining capabilities. "These oil refineries need to be hit and hit hard because that is the source of cash for the regime to perpetrate their terror," he stated.
"My prayers are with the people of Israel, and may God continue to bless Israel," Graham concluded.
