Jazz Shaw:
There is only one obvious answer. Paul objects to the idea of Israel using weapons and ammunition from the United States against the Palestinian terrorists of Hamas. He describes this process as being “unjust and contradictory to the very values that we publicly espouse.” Which values would those be? The right to self-defense? The right to respond to years of civilians being bombarded with rockets launched across their border? Those sound like the actual values that America has embraced for the entire history of our country.
I would argue that this example of very “not quiet quitting” is little more than an exercise in virtue signaling from a pro-Hamas, anti-Israel leftist who somehow wound up with a job inside of our State Department. On that assumption, I suppose it’s better that he exits stage left rather than sticking around and potentially sabotaging one of our shipments to our closest ally in the Middle East. Add that to your resume and commence the job search, Mr. Paul. Be sure to let us know how it goes.
