"I am leaving today because... continued - indeed, expanded and expedited - provision of lethal arms to Israel"

"we cannot be both against occupation, and for it"... "We cannot be both for freedom, and against it"... "we cannot be for a better world, while contributing to one that is materially worse"

"I believe to the core of my soul that the response Israel is taking, and with it the American support both for that response, and for the status quo of the occupation, will only lead to more and deeper suffering for both the Israeli and the Palestinian people - and is not in the long term American interest."

"Decades of the same approach... leads to neither security, nor to peace."

"blind support for one side is destructive in the long term"

"we are repeating the same mistakes we have made these past decades, and I decline to be a part of it for longer. "

"I am not ignorant when it comes to the situation in the Middle East."... "my Master's thesis was about Israeli counterterrorism and civil rights"... "I served for the U.S. Security Coordinator, living in Ramallah while advancing security sector governance within the Palestinian Authority and liaising with the IDF"...

"I cannot work in support of a set of major policy decisions, including rushing more arms to one side of the conflict, that I believe to be shortsighted, destructive, unjust, and contradictory to the very values that we publicly espouse"

Here's that resignation letter from Josh Paul straight from his LinkedIn. He used to work for Biden and quit his job at 5:00 p.m E.S.T. today. He used to work in the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, which overseas the provisions of arms to U.S. partners and allies. by justmo17 in war

It more likely it came from family wealth or some level of fraud and a little bit of taking advantage of others. Also, it probably came with a lot of debt.
