Evangelist Franklin Graham, the son of legendary evangelist Billy Graham and president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, thanked Trump in a post on Facebook for “giving the Iranian people a chance to be free.”

Graham, who also heads the North Carolina-based international Evangelical humanitarian aid organization Samaritan’s Purse, urged his followers to pray for Trump and “those in our military who are risking their lives to protect America and bring freedom to the Iranian people.”

“This regime has been killing Americans for years, and we haven’t had a president who had the guts to take them on,” Graham wrote. “Thank you Mr. President for standing up to bring this evil empire to an end.”
