Lindsey Graham Refuses to Mourn the 'Butcher of Tehran,' Offers Condolences to Victims

Senator Lindsey Graham has vocally opposed the United Nations' decision to hold a minute of silence for the recently deceased Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, dubbing him the "Butcher of Tehran" due to his notorious human rights record. Following Raisi's death in a helicopter crash, the UN's gesture sparked controversy, particularly after comments from Israeli UN Ambassador Gilad Erdan, who also condemned the moment of silence. Amidst this, Graham chose to extend his condolences to the victims of Raisi's policies rather than mourning his passing, highlighting the ongoing oppression by the Iranian regime under the Ayatollah.
