US Senator Lindsey Graham has slammed anyone claiming Iran is stronger after the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding was signed, calling it “an insult to the American military and it is delusional thinking because the Iranian economy is in shambles”.

“Mr President, continue to try to find a diplomatic solution to Iran’s nuclear ambitions and other issues that have plagued the world since 1979,” he adds in a post on X, addressing President Donald Trump.

“The day diplomacy is off the table will present America and our allies with some very stark choices. In the meantime, as we pursue diplomacy, make it crystal clear that Israel will not have to tolerate being attacked by Iranian proxies who cause parts of Israel to be uninhabitable.”
