Summary
Ibrahim Zabad, a St. Bonaventure political science professor, deleted a post celebrating Sen. Lindsey Graham’s death and apologized by 5:09 a.m., less than 12 hours after it appeared Saturday night.
The post called Graham a “bloodthirsty bigot” and ended with “Rest in Hell,” tying the attack to Graham’s support for Israel and U.S. policy in the Middle East.
St. Bonaventure said the message was not aligned with its Franciscan values and that it would address the situation with Zabad; the X account bearing his name and photo no longer appears active.
Graham, 71, died Saturday night, stunning Washington; an autopsy suggested aortic dissection tied to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, though his office said the death certificate remains pending further testing.
