U.S. media: Several people close to Trump advised against bombing Iran; Senator Graham opposed the idea.
According to Axios, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said several people close to President Trump advised him not to bomb Iran—and Graham urged Trump to ignore their advice. Graham, who is closely aligned with Trump, is a leading voice within Trump’s inner circle advocating for military action against Iran. He stated: “Given past entanglements, I understand concerns about launching large-scale military operations in the Middle East. Yet those urging restraint appear to overlook the consequences of allowing evil forces to operate unchecked.” Graham said that, following his recent visit to the region, he believes there is an opportunity to “bring historic change” to Iran. He added: “But it’s becoming increasingly clear to me that voices opposing involvement—and opposing decisive action due to its risks—are growing louder. How all this unfolds remains to be seen.”
