A US Army major resigns because of his country’s support for Israel News

A former major in US military intelligence revealed on Monday that his resignation last November was in fact due to “moral harm” resulting from “unconditional American support for Israel” in its war on the Gaza Strip and the damage caused to the Palestinians.

Harrison Mann explained – in a message he previously shared with his colleagues and published yesterday, Monday, on his LinkedIn account – that fear prevented him for a few months from revealing the reasons for his resignation, saying, “I was afraid of violations of our professional standards and of officials I respect… I was afraid of your feeling of being betrayed. I am sure that… “Some of you will feel that way when you read this.”

While Reuters reported that the Defense Department’s intelligence agency did not respond to a request for comment, Mann is considered the first known US military intelligence official to resign over US support for Israel.

American soldier Aaron Bushnell died after setting himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington on February 25, denouncing the war on Gaza, saying in a video recording that he would no longer be complicit in genocide, before setting himself on fire while… He shouts “Free Palestine.”

After Bushnell’s death, US Air Force soldier Larry Hibbert announced a sit-in in front of the White House for days and a hunger strike, to demand an end to the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, which is subject to an ongoing war that has left tens of thousands martyred, wounded and missing amid a humanitarian situation described as catastrophic and a worsening famine looming over the Strip. Besieged.
