Senator Lindsey Graham expressed his deep sorrow and anger on Sunday after learning that the remains of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, an Israeli-American, were found among the bodies of five other Israeli hostages in Gaza. He emphasized the need for the Biden administration to take strong action against Iran.
“He was murdered by Hamas,” the South Carolina senator said during an interview on ABC News’ “This Week.” Graham highlighted that Goldberg-Polin’s parents had done “everything in their power to help their son be released from captivity.”
“Hamas could care less about the hostages or the Palestinians,” Graham stated.
The hostages, identified as Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Alexander Lobanov, Almog Sarusi, and Master Sgt. Ori Danino, were “brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists shortly before we reached them,” according to Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, who made the announcement on Sunday.
Graham also mentioned that the pressure on Iran must be intensified if there is any hope of rescuing the remaining hostages taken on October 7th of last year.
“Iran is the great Satan here,” the senator remarked. “Hamas is the junior partner. They’re barbaric, religious Nazis, Hamas; but they could care less about the Palestinian people. I would urge the Biden administration and Israel to hold Iran accountable for the fate of remaining hostages, and put on the target list or refineries in Iran if the hostages are not released.”
He also urged President Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to make it clear to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei that the things he holds dear are now at risk. “Until that happens, nobody is coming home,” Graham asserted.

Biden’s veep is Harris; come election “month” we mustn’t forget that! She’s a significant part of Biden’s administration.
“Biden’s administration” !@#!$%
I don’t hold Iran responsible anymore. They are uncontrollable bloodthirsty animals. I do hold Biden responsible for subsidizing them, turning a blind eye to all the crime that Iral commitys daily. Senator Graham was correct some time ago when he suggested that US give Iran a soon deadline to return all hostages or their refineries would be bombed. Shuts down their economy completely. Any money that is being housed offshore will be taken back. These chayos will never bend to anything but the most brute force. Stop negotiating, stop offering concessions, stop giving moral equivalence to their completely immoral, heinous behavior.
Oh, I forgot. Biden is really a terrorist, and is doing everything possible to destroy Israel and Jews. He just pays Iran to do the evil bidding.
Vote Republican.
I agree with you totally. If America froze all the assets, foreign bank accounts and investments of Iran, the terrorists money would dry up. Without compensations and financial support Hamas and Hezbollah would weaken and disappear eventually. Those foreign investments that Iran holds outside of the country must be frozen and of these countries that don’t comply, should be sanctioned every which way possible.
Believe me, if this was done months ago we would have had all the hostages back. When it comes to these terrorists, money is the incentive of its commanders and leaders.
Next, with all the drive buy shootinga at Israeli drivers by terrorists there must an additional punishment that must be served to their towns. The towns that house these terrorists should have all their vehicles conficated and only animals should be allowed for transportation. End of drive buy killings.
