While I'm well aware that some folks are more than fond of blasting Sen. Lindsey Graham at every perceived opportunity, it's my hope that those so inclined can — just this once — set aside personal opinions of the South Carolina senator and instead focus on his takedown of Joe Biden and the anti-Semitic members of "The Squad" and their predictably despicable comments about the Israeli-Hamas war now underway.
If not, so be it.
During a Monday appearance on Fox News, Graham first tore into Iran:
The only way you're going to keep this war from escalating is to hold Iran accountable. How much more death and destruction do we have to take from the Iranian regime? I am confident this was planned and funded by the Iranians.
"Hamas is a bunch of animals who deserve to be treated like animals," he added.
Various reports point to not only the Islamic regime in Iran but also to Vladimir Putin's Russia for aiding and abetting Hamas in its surprise attack on Israel.
Next up, Graham blistered Biden, and Squad members of "siding with terrorists" in the aftermath of the worst attack on Israel in 50 years. "Shut the hell up!" Graham said, and then some.
If you missed any of the comments from these anti-Semitic, Palestinian sympathizers, here ya go, beginning with AOC.

Not to be outdone, Omar spewed predictable bile.
I condemn the horrific acts we are seeing unfold today in Israel against children, women, the elderly, and the unarmed people who are being slaughtered and taken hostage by Hamas. Such senseless violence will only repeat the back and forth cycle we've seen, which we cannot allow…

Cori Bush (D-Mo.) also chimed in, as well, as did Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.).
Graham included Biden in his takedown.
To the Biden administration, your appeasement policy towards Iran is not working. To 'The 'Squad,' shut the hell up. You're emboldening the enemy. You're a disgrace to the United States Congress. You're siding with terrorists over a democracy called Israel. You've lost your perspective here. I'm confident most Democrats don't agree with the squad.
Graham further torched the most inept and woke president in U.S. history:
The world was late to react [back then]. I'm urging the world to condemn Iran, urging the Biden administration to cloak the White House tonight in the Israeli flag. You did it for Pride Month. I want to see the Israeli flag over the White House.
Biden has deservedly faced blistering criticism in the aftermath of the Hamas attack, beginning with a White House BBQ on the day of the attack and continuing over his recent release of $6 billion to Iran — all as Team Biden continues its insane nuclear talks with the mad mullahs in Tehran.
The Bottom Line
While the latest attack on Israel by Hamas wasn't shocking, the scope and intensity of the attack, which reportedly included cold-blooded murder, torture, and rape, was beyond the comprehension of decent and moral people.
As for the left's calls for an Israeli ceasefire and negotiations with Hamas, Golda Meir, Israel's fourth prime minister, perhaps said it best:
You cannot negotiate peace with someone who has come to kill you.
The entire Democrat Party was unavailable for comment.
