The Palestinian Resistance group says the US Senator's calls come in the context of exhibiting loyalty to the fascist Israeli occupation entity.

Hamas condemned Lindsey Graham’s call to nuke the Gaza Strip, saying that the shocking statements made by the US Senator are clear proof of "the depth of the moral decline he has reached.”

The Palestinian Resistance group added in its statement that the Senator's shocking remarks indicate his genocidal, colonial mindset, which he shares with the political elite in the United States.

Hamas added that Graham's statements align with a complete crime of genocide against unarmed civilians perpetrated by an occupation army devoid of ethics.

This is no other than Lindsey Graham with yet another insane statement.

The movement said the US senator's calls come in the context of showing loyalty to the fascist Israeli occupation entity, calling on the free people of the world to condemn and denounce these stances and exert pressure on the Israeli occupation to stop its aggression on the Gaza Strip.

During an interview for NBC News on Sunday, Graham considered that for "Israel" to win its "existential" war in Gaza, it needs to do whatever it takes.

"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, Nagasaki, with nuclear weapons," he said.

"So, Israel, do whatever you have to do to survive as a Jewish state. Whatever you have to do."

Graham also claimed that the Palestinian Resistance is to blame for the mass civilian losses – which have now exceeded 35,000 martyrs – and called on the Israeli occupation to continue until a final victory is achieved, no matter what it takes.

Even though Graham did not call right out for using actual nuclear weapons in Gaza, his statement echoes the same controversial comparison he himself made during a subcommittee hearing earlier this week, in which he resembled the war on Gaza as "Hiroshima and Nagasaki on steroids."

In light of the Biden administration's temporary hold on bomb shipments to "Israel", Graham urged Washington to "give Israel the bombs they need to end the war they can’t afford to lose, and work with them to minimize casualties."
