Conservative Israeli media personality Yinon Magal shared a video excerpt on X late on Sunday from a forthcoming documentary about the late U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, highlighting the senator’s praise for Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu.

The clip, which Magal posted with a Hebrew caption, features Graham comparing the two leaders to Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt in the context of confronting Iran.

“Lindsey Graham, may his memory be a blessing, in the war with Iran: ‘Trump and Bibi are like Roosevelt and Churchill, they are the two right guys to deal with this evil,’” Magal wrote to his followers.

The excerpt stems from “Lindsey’s Game,” a documentary by filmmaker Alex Holder that captured extensive behind-the-scenes footage with the South Carolina Republican, who died earlier this month.

The Toronto Police Service released a photo of the suspected vehicle and asked witnesses or those with relevant dash-camera or security footage to come forward.
“She’ll be ready to deliver on day one,” Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said of Haley Stevens, who has AIPAC’s support.
Emily Hilliard of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services told JNS that the agency “will take appropriate action whenever there is evidence of fraud, abuse or other violations of federal requirements.”
Describing the move as “unprecedented and highly controversial,” Israel’s Foreign Ministry said it ties “the hands of his successor” and degrades the U.N.’s “rules-based order.”
