Senator Lindsey Graham has proposed that Israel threaten to bomb Iran's oil refineries if hostages taken by Hamas during the October 7 attack are not released. Graham, speaking on CNN, argued that Iran, as a key ally of Hamas, holds significant influence over the situation and must be pressured to act. He believes this aggressive stance is necessary to ensure the safety of the hostages, many of whom are feared dead, including eight American-Israeli citizens. The hostages' abduction has escalated into a broader conflict, with ongoing military actions involving Hezbollah in Lebanon. Graham also suggested that the attack on Israel by Hamas was an attempt to thwart potential normalization of relations between Arab nations and Israel, which he views as a strategic threat to Iran. The situation remains tense as Israel continues military operations while seeking a cease-fire and hostage release deal.
