U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) had plenty to say in response to Sen. Lindsey Graham’s spirited defense of supporting Israel.
“I am tired of the word ‘genocide!’ Let me tell you about genocide. If Israel wanted to commit genocide, they could,” Graham said in a speech on Wednesday. “They have the capability to do that. They choose not to.”
“To people in my party: I’m tired of this crap! Israel is our friend. They’re the most reliable we have in the Mid-East,” he continued. “They’re a democracy surrounded by people who would cut their throats if they could. This is not a hard choice if you’re an American. It’s not a hard choice if you’re Christian. A word of warning: if America pulls the plug on Israel, God will pull the plug on us.”
The neocon senator’s remarks follow Greene’s denunciation last month of “the genocide, humanitarian crisis, and starvation happening in Gaza.”
And she took Graham’s remarks personally, posting a long-winded reply Thursday, saying his remarks were “quite a statement,” stressing that he is acknowledging that a “nuclear armed Israel is more than capable of defending themselves, by themselves, and not only defeating their enemies, but completely wiping them out!”
Senator Graham confidently says the quiet part out loud, “If Israel wanted to commit genocide they could. They have the capacity to do that.”
That is quite a statement and is an acknowledgment that nuclear armed Israel is more than capable of defending themselves, by themselves,… https://t.co/FPLi0DOkGj

“So why is America funding them and fighting for them??!!! We should not be!! And it is not a matter of supporting either Israel or Hamas, as he suggest, which is ridiculous,” the GOP lawmaker wrote. “It is about supporting AMERICA!!!”
“Lindsey Graham has no children. I have 3 adult children, who are 22, 25, and 27, which gives me a fierce invested interest to be ALL IN to save America,” she said. “And we are now a nation in $37 TRILLION DOLLARS IN DEBT because of the NON-STOP votes and funding for foreign countries and foreign wars and bloated budgets and pork and waste for over 30 years, which is how long Lindsey Graham has been serving in Washington DC.”
Here’s more from Greene:
And the gross negligent consequences of America LAST decisions by MOST politicians in Washington DC has not only chained all of us and our future generations in debt, but eroded the value of our dollar, driven out of control inflation making life completely unaffordable, and is destroying the middle class and turning my children’s generation into the WORKING POOR!!!
WHICH PISSES ME OFF!!!
The sirens should be blaring in Washington DC with an all hands on deck panic mentality that every single elected member of congress and senator should be working as hard as possible to prevent our inevitable demise.
But instead, even after the America First mandate was delivered in the election of 2024, tone deaf Politicians in the swamp still slither up to podiums to deliver speeches that sound like the same Bush era propaganda that has led to 22 veteran suicides a day, every day, from devastating PTSD brought home from pointless foreign wars.
Greene rejected Graham’s Biblical prediction, presenting a different side to the argument.
“We can support our allies, but our elected officials should not be funded or going on funded trips for the interest of foreign countries. And God will not pull the plug on us, if we stop funding the secular government of Israel,” she insisted. “This is 1,000% false and is the fear mongering tactic used on good hearted American Christians to force us to fund and fight the secular government of nuclear armed Israel’s wars. We don’t believe we go to heaven based on how much money we blindly give and how many bombs we drop on the secular government of Israel’s enemies.”
The lawmaker concluded her rant, “Lastly, American’s hard earned tax dollars should go to AMERICA ONLY!!! If we are going to pull the plug on anything, we should pull the damn plug on FUNDING FOREIGN WARS AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES!!!!!!!”
All of which puts folks on the right in a tight spot, forced to choose between a war-mongering neocon and an anti-Israel advocate who appears to get blurry-eyed when it comes to the line between Hamas propaganda and the truth.
Either way, as we approach the two-year anniversary of the horrific Hamas attack on Israeli citizens, Israel has had plenty of time to respond, and war-weary Americans who just saw a record 20-year war in Afghanistan pissed away, are increasingly ready for hostilities to end.
