Sen. Lindsey Graham Criticizes Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin's Approach to Israel-Hamas Conflict

Graham Challenges Austin and VP Harris to Provide Better Solutions, as Palestinian Death Toll Exceeds 15,000

  • Sen. Lindsey Graham criticizes Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin's approach to the Israel-Hamas conflict, calling him 'naive' and stating he has 'lost all confidence' in him.
  • Graham disagrees with Austin's assertion that Israel risks a 'strategic defeat' if it doesn't take steps to protect civilians, arguing that the Palestinian population is already radicalized.
  • Graham suggests that Austin is asking Israel to achieve the impossible, given the complexity of the situation in Gaza, where Hamas has tunnels under apartments, schools, and hospitals.
  • Graham also criticizes Vice President Kamala Harris for her comments on the conflict, challenging her to provide a better solution for Israel to destroy Hamas without hurting innocent Palestinians.
  • The conflict has resulted in the death of over 15,000 Palestinians, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza.
