Biden administration faces internal dissent over Israel policy as officials resign in protest
• Annelle Sheline, a Middle East human rights analyst at the State Dept, resigned in protest of Biden's Israel policy as she felt unable to advocate for human rights.
• Sheline's resignation follows other officials including Josh Paul and Tariq Habash who also resigned over the administration's support for Israel amidst the crisis in Gaza.
• U.S. credibility among activist groups in the Middle East has diminished according to Sheline, as they want to talk about Gaza rather than other issues.
• The Biden administration continues to pledge support for Israel despite rhetorical warnings, refusing to leverage aid.
• Sheline's resignation signals growing internal dissent within the administration over Israel policy.
