‘I Respect His Decision’: Franklin Graham Tells CBN News He Won’t Second-Guess Trump on Syria

SOURCE: (CBN)

In an interview with CBN News, Franklin Graham says he spoke to Vice President Mike Pence about the perilous situation in Syria, and Graham says he respects President Donald Trump’s decision to remove US troops from harm’s way.  

“I have communicated with the Vice President,” Graham tells CBN News. “The decision has been made and the President certainly had his reasons and I respect his decision. Now we have to deal with the fallout.”
 
When President Trump made the decision to pullback American troops in the region last week, Graham, who is a close personal friend of the president, called on Trump to reconsider the move, citing the real possibilities of ethnic cleansing and religious persecution. Since then, there has been evidence on the ground that Turkey is doing exactly that.

“Hopefully the President can persuade the Turkish military to stop and have possibly a cease-fire because there are so many civilians caught in this,” says Graham. “The Turks are talking about putting in a safe zone and I really doubt those are their intentions. I think they want to take the entire border of Syria so there will be hundreds of thousands of more people (as refugees) if that’s the case.”

Graham also told CBN News that in the next 24 hours or so, his Samaritan’s Purse organization will be sending relief items to the area to provide humanitarian aid.
 
Graham has also taken a prayerful tone as he acknowledges that the situation is a complicated one. “I think the Vice President and the President want our prayers and I would encourage people to pray for the Vice President, the President. These are very hard decisions we have to make.”

He said now is not the time for playing armchair quarterback.

“I just don’t want to try to second-guess them,” Graham tells CBN News. “There are a lot of other factors that are involved in his decisions. There’s tens of thousands of Americans that live in Turkey, we have bases in Turkey, they’re part of NATO, we have agreements with Turkey. So I understand, we have those types of relationships. The President has said he wants a cease-fire. I think he’s been very direct on that and I think he will do what he can.”

How Long Will It Take For Jewish People Outside Of Israel To Realize They’re In Grave Danger?

This recent eruption of violence was not spontaneous; it was organized and well-funded. It is eerily reminiscent of the BLM riots of a few years ago, but this time, it's against the Jews, so who knows how long it will last and how far it will get?

LIVE UPDATES — Johnson Calls University Pres. To Resign: ‘Columbia Has Allowed Lawless Agitators And Radicals To Take Over’

Pray For Israel — Psalm 122:6-8, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee."

In A World Encased In Violence, Prophecy Is The Stabiliser Of Our Faith

God did not provide His Word so that it would simply die in the hands of the spiritually dead. He expected, as evidenced by Habakkuk, that it be shared – particularly that which was warning people of the two paths available – righteousness or wickedness.
