Former US military intel official says he resigned over Washington’s support for Israel in Gaza war

[IsraelTimes] A former US military intelligence official says that his November resignation was in fact due to "moral injury" stemming from Washington’s support for Israel in its war against Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
and the harm caused to Paleostinians.

In a letter to his colleagues at the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Harrison Mann, an Army major, says he kept quiet about his motives for resigning for months out of fear.

"I was afraid. Afraid of violating our professional norms. Afraid of disappointing officers I respect. Afraid you would feel betrayed. I’m sure some of you will feel that way reading this," Mann writes in a letter shared with colleagues last month and published on his LinkedIn profile today.

He is the first known DIA official to quit over US support to Israel.

The Defense Intelligence Agency does not respond to a request for comment.

Mann’s case differs from other US government officials, including several State Department officials, who publicly deplored US policy as they resigned rather than waiting months to explain their departure.

He says he felt shame and guilt for helping advance US policy that he said contributed to the mass killing of Paleostinians.

"At some point — whatever the justification — you’re either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you’re not," Mann writes.

#1 Mann was commissioned into the Army in 2011 ... The Army said Mann was deployed to Tunisia, Bahrain, Kuwait and South Korea during his career.

So how long has he been a major?

#3 Clearly he's compromised and a terrorist collaborator. He should be court-martialed.

#4 ^#3
I agree, and also wonder how much Intel he shared with the Muslim Brotherhood.

The other side (CAIR - Council on American-Islamic Relations) was quick to make a hero of him....

#5 "At some point — whatever the justification — you’re either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you’re not," Mann writes.

Obviously, he doesn't read Rantburg. It's not US policy. It's HamaSS policy.

#6 So, was he in the intelligence section or was he just formerly intelligent?

#7 I'm sure there are plenty of like minded at the office he has resigned from.

#8 Could be that his resignation has nothing to do with Iron Swords (and not actually voluntary) but he grabbed it as a reason?
