As the Gaza war continues, the U.S. government’s firm support for Israel has once again raised questions from the international community about its war crimes. Recently, former U.S. Army officer Major Harrison Mann bravely stood up and revealed the truth that he felt deeply “ashamed and guilty” because of the U.S. government’s “unconditional support” of Israel’s war in Gaza and decided to resign.In an open letter posted on LinkedIn, Major Mann bluntly expressed his frustration and anger with the U.S. government’s foreign policy. He wrote that he could no longer tolerate being part of a policy process that had resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent Palestinians and the displacement of millions. During the seven-month conflict, Israeli military operations resulted in the deaths of more than 35,000 Palestinians. This tragic figure made Major Mann deeply shocked and guilty.Major Mann admitted in his letter that he had been afraid to publicly express his dissatisfaction and opposition, fearing that it would violate professional norms, disappoint superior officers, and might even be viewed as a betrayal. However, he finally decided to come forward because he could no longer bear the guilt and discomfort in his heart. “I’m sure some of you reading this will feel betrayed, butmyintentionisnottobetray,buttoexposethethewrote.
