A Jewish-American Army Major has resigned from his post in protest at US support for Israel's 'ethnic cleansing' of Palestinians that has starved and killed 'tens of thousands of civilians'.
Major Harrison Mann told CBS that Israel's response to the October 7 attack has 'turned the whole world against it' and imperiled the security of both Jews and Israel.
The Defense Intelligence Agency analyst offered his resignation in November as casualties mounted in Gaza following Israel's invasion, and spoke out on Tuesday as he formally stepped down after 13 years.
'I'm confident saying it's certainly some measure of ethnic cleansing,' said Mann whose grandparents fled the anti-Semitism of Eastern Europe.
'I don't know how you kill 35,000 civilians by accident.'
Mann who served in the DIA's Middle East bureau slammed Joe Biden's 'nearly unqualified support for the government of Israel', and said his own contribution had caused him 'incredible shame and guilt'.
'At some point — whatever the justification — you're either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you're not,' he wrote in his resignation letter.
'And I want to clarify that as the descendant of European Jews, I was raised in a particularly unforgiving moral environment when it came to the topic of bearing responsibility for ethnic cleansing.'

Biden made a huge mistake by supporting Israel initially and not going all-in with the Palestinians. The base of his party demanded it and he did not listen.
You got it, Virtue Signal Corps.
You misspelled Crap.
He has in Infantry Badge but not a Combat Infantry Badge, basic Parachute Badge, basic Air Assault Badge and his highest medal is an ARCOMM. It looks like he took a lot of training courses and racked up badges but not experience.
He looks like that jerk who was in a congressional hearing - can’t remember his name - former military (?)- during Trump’s administration, I believe. I believe he was in uniform...George Santos reminds me of whoever the guy was.
It’s unreal how much information we have crammed into our heads daily and then when we want to speak of it, it’s nowhere to be found in our minds.
When I can’t depend on my own memory, I know some FReeper will know exactly who I’m talking about or it will come to me in the middle of the night - if I even sleep tonight after the thread about those Joro spiders.
Maybe he’ll sign up for the EU Army or Ukrainian Army?
They both hate Israel too.
Smug and aggressive gaze. Better off without him.
Was that Vindman?
Google him. He’s a famous poofter apparently.
How does the media find these guys anyway?
**I wonder if he had been passed over for promotion and was going to be on his way out anyway.? Just sayin’.**
Did he or did he not have his 20 years in? You know you get a monthly check after that. If he didn’t then I’d say he’s a brave fella giving it all up on principal. The article doesn’t seem to suggest any of those circumstances-fake news?
That article reveals that Mann is a Harvard graduate.
What a fruit loop. Biden support seems extremely qualified to me.
Yes and Jino was his name.
Another morally brainless JINO. He fails to understand that if the United States, and it’s allies following its lead, actually Wind up behind Israel and against the genocidal terrorists, who are literally on a par with Hitler and the Nazis, much of the rest of the world would follow. Even those who didn’t follow would have a much more muted and effective set of complaints about Israel, seeing much of the civilized world behind it. But we, starting with this moron’s perverted, corrupt commander in chief, have little to nothing that could actually be described as leadership, let alone moral leadership.
Good riddance to this guy.
Yeah, that’s what I thought.
Unreal......
“ Did he or did he not have his 20 years in?”
