Lap dog Lindsey Graham: Iran will suffer 'massive military attack' Tuesday night without 'capitulation' from Tehran [View all]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Monday that President Trump’s looming deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz marks a “defining moment” for the conflict and region, warning that Tehran will face a “massive military attack” if it does not agree to U.S. demands.

“This time tomorrow night, we’re going to have one or two scenarios: capitulation of [Iran’s] desire to rain terror on the world through diplomacy, or we’re going to have a massive military attack, destroying the regime’s capability to ever wage war again,” Graham told Fox News.

The South Carolina Republican, one of the most vocal congressional supporters of Operation Epic Fury, emphasized that any peace deal must ensure Iran can no longer exercise control over the vital shipping lane and eliminate the regime’s stockpile of enriched uranium.

“There can’t be one ounce of this 60 percent grade uranium left in Iran,” he said, suggesting the Islamic Republic currently has enough to make “eight or 10” nuclear bombs.
