State Department official resigns after Biden administration says Israel not blocking Gaza aid
Stacy Gilbert resigned in protest against State Department report that says Israel isn't blocking aid to Gaza
A career State Department official resigned from her post on Tuesday, saying she could no longer work for the Biden administration after it released a report concluding that Israel was not preventing the flow of aid to Gaza.
Stacy Gilbert, who served as a senior civilian-military advisor to the State Department's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), sent an email to staff saying she was resigning because she felt the State Department had made the wrong assessment, The Washington Post reported, citing officials who read the note.
The report was filed in response to President Joe Biden issuing a national security memorandum (NSM-20) in early February on whether the administration finds credible Israel's assurances that its use of US weapons do not violate either American or international law.
The report said there were reasonable grounds to believe Israel on several occasions had used American-supplied weapons "inconsistent" with international humanitarian law, but said it could not make a definitive assessment - enough to prevent the suspension of arms transfers.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Providing something you’d yourself strictly agree with is harder. Providing a link that the opponent won’t discard if they want to discard it is possible, but unlikely
No idea what you're talking about. Have you, or have you not, seen an ML call the Cambodian genocide "justified?" There's nothing for me to "strictly agree with" or "discard," if you've seen someone say that, then all you have to do is show me, and there's no room for disagreement.
I’ve reached that last point with ML’s for a few times.
Great, where's the link?
That’s just what fascists say.
Fascists question whether ML's call the Cambodian genocide justified? Wtf are you talking about?
Oh, I get it. Now that you've been caught in a lie, you're trying to pretend that I was asking for proof of the genocide itself, as opposed to what I actually asked for, which is proof of an ML calling it "justified." Nice bit of weaseling.
Let's be absolutely clear - the Cambodian genocide happened and was not justified, and @[email protected] and @[email protected] are blatantly lying and making things up by claiming to have seen MLs call it justified.
Have you, or have you not, seen an ML call the Cambodian genocide “justified?”
Yes, after calling it "putting unfavorable elements\burgeoisie\vermin to the wall" or something like that.
Just like I have seen the same with Stalin's repressions in USSR.
Great, where’s the link?
I don't keep links for things I don't need.
Do you keep links of your conversations on the Web?
Oh, I get it. Now that you’ve been caught in a lie, you’re trying to pretend that I was asking for proof of the genocide itself, as opposed to what I actually asked for, which is proof of an ML calling it “justified.” Nice bit of weaseling.
Weaseling is what you are doing in this quote. I openly say that I don't respect you and thus don't bother following your turns.
are blatantly lying and making things up by claiming to have seen MLs call it justified.
Almost everybody has seen MLs call it justified, it takes only one case. Maybe you are bad with math and probabilities.
You could argue about this being commonplace or not, but since you are accusing others of lying in the same comment you are asking for proof in, I think everybody reading this has a measure of you.
I don’t keep links for things I don’t need.
This website has a search function. Searching "Khmer Rouge Justified" returns precisely 5 comments, none of which were claiming it was justified or responding to someone claiming it was justified. "Khmer Rouge Wall" likewise turned up nothing of note. Liar.

Great! Anyone is welcome to chime in and provide evidence. Where is it? Liar.
accusing others of lying in the same comment you are asking for proof in,
That... that's not at all contradictory lmao. Liar.
I think everybody reading this has a measure of you.
Given your comments about how drowning puppies is justified, which everyone's definitely seen but which I have precisely zero evidence of, I think you're the one everyone has a measure of.
How could you say that?
Puppies? Really? Wow.
Ofc, I won't provide evidence, because as you're a puppy murderer, I don't respect you and won't play by your terms. Liar.
This website has a search function.
Now think further. You are so fucking close to the answer. This website.
Also why waste time looking for something? I'll still be right, it'll only affect what you think.
Ofc, I won’t provide evidence, because as you’re a puppy murderer, I don’t respect you and won’t play by your terms.
Well, because I don't respect you, I don't care. So dunno what was this supposed to tell me. That you are running around asking from people evidence of what they've seen a few months ago and they won't? That's expected.
Liar.
Something a liar always says first
Liar.
