Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina has warned Israel not to target Iran's oil infrastructure in a social media post urging them to be cautious about targeting the country's oil industry. This comes after Iran responded by launching hundreds of ballistic missiles and drones at targets across several countries including Israel, Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Graham, who has been criticized for his hawkish foreign policy, praised Israel's history as an American ally before making the request. He also warned that the Iranian people will soon be in control of their own fate, not the murderous ayatollah's regime.
