'Irreplaceable champion of Israel, America and global peace': Alan Dershowitz mourns Lindsey Graham

Attorney Alan Dershowitz mourned the death of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, calling him an "irreplaceable champion of Israel, America and global peace." Dershowitz described Graham as a close personal friend and a staunch advocate for Israel, emphasizing that Graham "loved Israel, and he loved America, and he thought that the Israel-America relationship had to be kept strong." Their friendship developed after initially being adversaries during Bill Clinton's impeachment proceedings. Dershowitz highlighted Graham's ability to maintain bipartisan relationships and his principled support for Israel, which he believed was rooted in honesty and intelligence rather than religious views. He also noted Graham's role as a confidant to President Trump, often mediating with Democrats, and his recent push for a harder line against Iran. Dershowitz suggested that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should attend Graham's funeral and called for an investigation into conspiracy theories surrounding Graham's death, citing potential threats against pro-Israel figures.
