This is the second resignation by a Biden administration official because of the president's increasingly unpopular support of a continued humanitarian crisis in Gaza, echoing the opinion of much of the international community. As it doubles down on its policies by fast-tracking military shipments to Israel, the US will continue to face an increase in domestic and global criticism.
A White House-influenced decrease in air strikes and military force reduces civilian casualties but also allows Hamas the chance to continue to live on and plot future attacks on Israel. The Biden administration must recognize this and resist criticism from international Hamas sympathizers that might put Israel at a disadvantage.
