US Senator Lindsey Graham has publicly advocated for Israel to abandon diplomatic efforts with Hamas and instead take Gaza by force, drawing direct comparisons to the US military's actions in Tokyo and Berlin during World War II. Graham argues that a negotiated end to the conflict is impossible and that only a complete military defeat of Hamas will ensure Israel's security. He suggests that Israel is preparing for a long-term occupation of Gaza, with a significant change in military tactics expected. Graham also cautions that Israel must conduct its operations in a way that maintains support from the US. His statements reflect a hardline stance and signal a potential escalation in the conflict.
