U.S. Army Major Harrison Mann

Army Intel Officer Major Harrison Mann is Jewish and worked at the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) during President Joe Biden’s administration. Democracy Now writes that Mann is “the first military and intelligence officer to publicly resign over the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s war on Gaza.” In an interview with Juan Gonzalez and Amy Goodman, Mann states that his Jewish background influenced both his choice to serve in the army and his decision to leave. He cited the “huge numbers of civilian casualties” in Israeli’s current war on Gaza as a core reason why he felt he could not support the Biden administration’s funding and arming of Israel. Mann argues that his Jewish “moral logic” guided his choice to resign.
