Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) stated on Thursday that he is traveling to Israel to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “at this crucial time in the history of the Middle East.”

“The goal is to build on the historic opportunities created by President Trump’s unprecedented leadership, to stand up to evil and to support the people who are sacrificing for freedom,” he said.

Graham added that “the Trump-Netanyahu alliance has thus far been one of the strongest partnerships in the history of the U.S.-Israel relationship, and I am hopeful it will pay dividends in the near future.”

“We live in a time of great consequence with the Middle East on the verge of previously unimaginable change,” he stated. “Standing together and following through on our commitments only makes us stronger.”
