Jewish Voice for Peace Calls for Restraint After Sen. Lindsey Graham Urges Israel to “Level” Gaza

HeadlineOct 12, 2023

Some Republicans are calling for an all-out annihilation of Gaza. This is South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham.

Sen. Lindsey Graham: “We’re in a religious war here. I am with Israel. Do whatever the hell you have to do to defend yourself. Level the place.”

The group Jewish Voice for Peace has called for the U.S. to restrain Israel, writing, “The U.S. must work to immediately de-escalate to prevent the further loss of life, and not fuel and exacerbate the violence by sending more weapons to Israel. There is only one way to end violence: to address its root cause, 75 years of Israeli military occupation and apartheid. We must end U.S. complicity in this systemic oppression.”
