Resignation Reveals Disagreement with Biden's Israel Arms Policy

A senior official at the US State Department, Josh Paul, has resigned over the Biden administration's decision to send more weapons and ammunition to Israel, calling it "shortsighted, destructive, unjust, and contradictory to the very values that we publicly espouse." Paul criticized the administration's response to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, stating that it would lead to more suffering for both Israelis and Palestinians. His resignation comes as Gaza health officials report that Israeli bombing has killed over 3,700 people. President Biden plans to ask Congress for $10 billion in mostly military assistance for Israel.
