Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, compared the Gaza War to World War II and stated that dropping atomic bombs on Japan was the “right decision” to finish the battle. On Sunday, he urged the US to continue providing ammunition to Israel.
Graham used the analogy when he told NBC’s Kristen Welker that Israel was up against a “existential threat” from adversaries like Hamas and that it would require more weaponry to win the battle.
In his opinion, Japan and Germany posed an existential threat to the US in the 1940s.
“So when we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harbor fighting the Germans and the Japanese, we decided to end the war by bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear weapons,” Graham stated.
