Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has asserted that American support for Israel is a divine imperative, warning that if the United States withdraws its backing, "God will pull the plug on us." This statement was made in the context of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, where over 50,000 children have been reported killed. Graham's remarks have drawn criticism, with opponents highlighting his acceptance of over $1 million from pro-Israel lobby groups and condemning his dismissal of genocide concerns. Some critics, including political figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene, have labeled Graham's claim as "fake Christian doctrine," arguing that divine favor is not contingent on U.S. involvement in Israel's conflicts. The debate echoes previous statements by political leaders emphasizing unwavering U.S. commitment to Israel despite domestic and international controversies.
Now confusing American support for ‘Divine mandate’ to rule.
