Josh Paul resigned from a senior position at the US State Department back in October to protest the US position vis-à-vis Israel’s war in Gaza. In an interview with FRANCE 24, he said he did so because of the scale and scope of the conflict. « It was clear (…) that this would be far beyond anything we had seen before, » he declared. Paul also said that the Biden administration « is ignoring American laws that apply to arms transfers and to security assistance » and noted a « lack of appetite » at the State Department to address Israeli human rights violations.
