Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Sunday advised that Israel should threaten to blow up Iran's oil refineries if the remaining hostages taken by Hamas during its October 7 terrorist attack are not released soon.

“I think we got to remember that the October 7th attack was generated, in my view, to stop normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel. It's a nightmare for Iran and her proxies, for the Arabs and Israelis to reconcile and make peace and take the region in a different direction," Graham said during an interview with CNN. "As to the hostages, I would hold Iran responsible for their well-being."

"If I were the state of Israel, I would tell the ayatollah, if these people do not come home alive – the ones that are left alive – and if we don't get the bodies of the fallen, we're going to blow up your oil refineries," he continued. "That's the only way you're ever going to get the hostages released is to put pressure on Iran."
