Fox News
Sen. Lindsey Graham calls for Iranian regime change as a 26-year-old protester faces possible execution despite President Donald Trump's threats of U.S. intervention.
Rachel Wolf is a breaking news writer for Fox News Digital and FOX Business.
"I hope and pray that the execution does not go forward and this young man does not forfeit his life because he wants to live in freedom without fear," the senator added. "This regime must fall, and the Iranian people must have a better life."
Graham said that he believes if the regime falls and the "murderous ayatollah running Iran" is gone, the impact on the region "would be incredibly positive." He also warned, however, that if Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei were to remain in power, it would be "a giant step backward into the darkness."
