'I'm more dedicated now to bringing stability to your country and this region,' Sen. Graham tells Netanyahu
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) at the IDF's Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv on Thursday.
Before the meeting, which included Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer, National Security Director Tzachi Hanegbi, the prime minister's Military Secretary Maj.-Gen. Avi Gil and Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Michael Herzog, Netanyahu thanked Graham for his support.
"Thank you. Senator Graham, Lindsey, I appreciate your personal support and the bipartisan support of the American people, represented by the administration, by both sides of Congress."
"We're absolutely committed to achieving our war goals, that is, destroying Hamas, releasing our hostages, making sure Gaza doesn't become a threat again, and also making sure that we can return our citizens in the north and in the south. For that we'll apply maximum power with maximum precision everywhere that's needed," the prime minister continued.
Graham emphasized the strategic importance of Israel in light of Iranian aggression.
"I'm more dedicated now to bringing stability to your country and this region because I think Iran's goal is to destroy your efforts to reconcile with the Arab world," said Graham.
"It's a nightmare for the ayatollah. It's an absolutely essential ingredient to a better more stable Middle East and a safe and secure Israel and a prosperous Palestinian people."
"I promise you, they will not have died in vain. We're going to do everything we can, on my end and I think working with the Biden administration, Mr. Prime Minister, to push forward to make Iran's worst nightmare real: The Arabs and the Israelis move toward the light."
