Annelle Sheline says ‘I no longer wanted to be affiliated with this administration,’ claiming Biden is flouting US law over Israel

A human rights official has resigned from the US state department over Gaza saying the Biden administration is flouting US law by continuing to arm Israel, and is hushing up evidence that the US had seen on Israeli human rights abuses.

    So quickly? It’s late March, and this has been escalating since early October. That’s almost six months. It’s a testament to how strong US support for Israel is that it’s taken this long for such mild pushback (abstaining at the UN and publicly explaining all the reasons you couldn’t support the resolution, one rando resigning…hardly strong condemnations) to begin to show in the face of such extreme atrocities.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad to see even this much. It’s fantastic. But we should still keep it in perspective.

      Let me put it this way - I wasn’t expecting US support to appreciably erode for another generation, minimum.
