U.S Senator Lindsey Graham told reporters in Jerusalem that "the accusations that Israel is starving people as a 'weapon of war' are bullshit, it's a blood libel.
The IDF and the Israeli government are making great efforts to take care of the Palestinians' basic needs." Graham, a Republican, called on Saudi Arabia and other countries to work to help the Palestinians, especially in dealing with incitement in the Palestinian education system.
