State Department official resigns over Biden’s support of Israel’s war against Hamas

A longtime State Department official resigned Wednesday over President Biden’s decision to provide lethal arms to Israel as it wages war on Hamas terrorists.

Josh Paul, a now former senior official in the State Department’s Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, publicly announced his resignation in a letter posted on his LinkedIn page, arguing that supplying Israel with lethal weaponry and ammunition is “impulsive” and “immensely disappointing.”

“I made myself a promise that I would stay for as long as I felt the harm I might do could be outweighed by the good I could do,” Paul, who worked in the State Department division ​​overseeing arms sales, wrote in his note. “In my 11 years I have made more moral compromises than I can recall, each heavily, but each with my promise to myself in mind, and intact.”

“I am leaving today because I believe that in our current course with regards to the continued – indeed, expanded and expedited – provision of lethal arms to Israel – I have reached the end of that bargain,” he wrote.

Biden, 80, has vowed to “stand with Israel” and “make sure Israel has what it needs to take care of its citizens, defend itself and respond” in the aftermath of Hamas’ barbaric Oct. 7 terrorist attack against the Jewish state, which left more than a thousand dead.

People like this need to be actively rooted out of the federal government, in all agencies.

Maybe he should go to Gaza to help Hamas, just like all the other Pali supporters protesting and rioting in the streets.

Unfortunately, thousands or tens of thousands more like him infest Foggy Bottom.

Good-riddance, terrorist lover.  Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

Let’s see, if more and more like this person follows suit, how it will take for the Biden administration to reverse their position on HAMAS and Israel

And what will the party do if/when,during any Democrat party primary season, their left-wing base starts demanding that any Democrat running will be required to publicly state their support for the Palestinians over Israel?
