'My resignation had an impact': Jewish Army Major resigns over war in Gaza
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- Major Harrison Mann resigned from his role at the Defense Intelligence Agency in November after a 13 year career in the Army over the United States’ role in Israel’s war in Gaza. Maj. Mann joins Ali Velshi to discuss his resignation. He says that his Jewish identity, including the memory of his grandparents escaping antisemitism in Europe, was part of why he made the choice to quit over what he describes as the “killing and starvation of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians.”

I’m so grateful to the integrity demonstrated by the major. I’m not Jewish but love many Jewish friends. And feel ethics and integrity have to be a consideration. I’m deeply grateful to those who stand up humanity.
Absolutely agree
Thank you, Sir! Thank you for your Service ✌️
Yes he did the US a service by resigning. On that we agree. Why do you not care as much about the 3 million Syrians murdered in a brutal war???
@@homoblogicus7899 what’s Syria got to do with this, it’s for a completely different conversation. Right now the guy is discussing the atrocities being carried out today by Israel onto the Palestinians. You must be the BOT of misdirection
@@homoblogicus7899 by the Assad Regime and Russia?
Thank you, Sir! Thank you for your humanity and conscience.
@@homoblogicus7899 How do you know he doesn't care?
Major Harrison Mann Is a man of honor, integrity and deserves our highest respect for his action. All humans have a common thread. We are born we live and we die. The true measure of if you had a good life is " After you die is the world a better place for you having been in it ". Thank you Major Harrison Man you represent a role model for others to strive for.
Salute to Army Major Honorable Harrison Mann, a Jewish American Amy hero. As someone said "we are all born, live and die ". When we die we will be asked 'what did you do for others when you were alive '? You and other high level government people like you standing for rights of innocents are having conscious, wisdom and integrity will be victorious. God Bless you and your family.
What an honorable and courageous man!
Persons like you give an old lady hope that one day we can live as we were taught, treat people the way you want to be treated. There is hope for humans.
"treat people the way you want to be treated" well said. In Israel they are indoctrinated that they are better than anyone else and that palestinians are to blame for the Holocaust. FUBB
You are an honorable man/soldier! Thank you for your services and for being a courageous and compassionate person who did the RIGHT thing that so many people of this world today can't be! 💙💙💙🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲. I am not Jewish but I remember speaking with a Jewish elder who told me that being Jewish is to be your best. That wisdom pertain's to EVERYONE! That is one of the qualities I taught my children. We should always be our best. By doing so, you will engage, teach, understand and create healthy relationships, make the right decisions and RESPECT not only yourself but others as well! ♥️
Speaking out on Gaza and Rafa makes much more of an impact if you are Jewish ❤

Integrity promotes Humanity.
Had the pleasure of knowing this young man a few years ago. Always thought he was very intelligent, but it seems he’s clearly principled. Good for you and best of luck.
I want to thank you, beautiful brother for being a universal human being. And thank you for your bravery to protect the American people. This isn’t about helping our Jewish brothers and sisters, this is about hurting Palestinians.
Thank you my Jewish brother from another mother, you could have kept this to yourself but instead your "morality Compass" went off and you had a set things right. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten. I appreciate and I thank you for your service👊
Imagine if the Police in New York was called to rescue hostages in a bank and decides that the whole neighborhood is complicit! IDF training!!!
Religious wars are disgraceful.
Send Netanyahu to jail!
respect to you major

😅😅😅😅
That’s the absolute dumbest analogy ! Imagine claiming the people in the bank holding the hostages are “Innocent civilians” ! That’s what is happening
@@pabis6817 Oh come on. It's been over 75 years where the Israelis could have done something different. Instead of killing Palestinians under Ben Gurion to present day settlements in the west bank. If you forget that, you deny history pabis.
Get a grip.
My dear friend@@pabis6817- the analogy still stands. @nisahmed9121 stated that the whole NEIGHBORHOOD is being seen as complicit, not that only those in the bank holding the hostages are "innocent civilians".
In any conflict of this size, civilians are bound to be killed/injured, but Israel has not taken the proper precautions before carrying out operations to reasonably prevent the loss of life, which creates a clear picture that innocent civilians are just as bad as those who actually took the hostages. The operational strategy is not sound or producing effective results.
👍
As a Jewish American, I am beyond ashamed that a genocide is unfolding in my lifetime…. Never again means never again for anyone regardless of their race. The hypocrisy and double standards are astounding.
May God preserve you. You a hero to my kids and their future.
Courage is what's needed in hard times and you can't fiind it in all governments of the world today.
Indeed
Thank You, Major Harrison Mann !!!
My Mann!
Stop genocide
Send Netanyahu to jail.
SEND BIDEN with HIM TOO!
No
@@Poyuan_Ma Send you too.

@@coolgamers2794 What has Biden done? But Hamas must not go to jail??? Grow a brain.
There is so much emphasis placed on this man's Jewish background, however I think of him as an AMERICAN patriot, representing the best in what our officers are supposed to be. Reminds me of Army Lt. Ehren Keoni Watada.
Not sure
Thank you, very heartening!
He upholds good life principle...
Major has integrity. Something that has been lost in today society.
In today’s military
Thank you for being courageous. I am sure many IDF soldiers will relive their active time when they finally come down from their frenzy and look through the Israeli marketing. Many would wish they would have your strength. Indeed, no more talk about the First Holocaust. The second genocide puts a unfortunate shadow over that.
Great reporting, Ali, and great interview.
You are a good Mann, blessed you and your family!
Major Mann's integrity, moral stance, and dignity demonstrate excellence. From a religious perspective, I wonder if Major Mann perceived the Holy One's gentle voice, thus prompting his resignation and career change. 🕊
It is not antesemetism, to object to the warcrimes thet Israel are Paletisians.
Yes,it is antisemitism to tell lies like this.
Thank you Major Mann.
honorable man, huge respect.
Much respect 🇿🇦
Human rights are for all human beings 💔
God bless you and family Sir, a wonderful example you have set. Respect, Respect, Respect 🇮🇪🇿🇦🇪🇸🇳🇴🇹🇷🍀🇮🇪🍉🇵🇸🙏🌈🕊️

Thank you.. this “war” is about Our Humanity, Our Soul.
Thank you to the platform
Small acts add up and matter, especially when it is for humanitarian reasons
God bless you Major
Agree 👍
Thank you major
Thank you Harrison Mann. Much, much respect.
HEROES DO EXIST
Thank you officer for your humanity and solidarity 💔
No need to say anything about the western hypocrisy 😂.
hes the first one? it means others are a bunch of monsters?
You are a Hero.. Hashem will bless you..❤❤
You don't have to be a certain Race or colour to independently identify the harrowing events happening in GAZA. Thanks 👍 Great man
Following your conscience
Is like following an old friend
It's nice to have a companion
Who will follow you to the end
Unless there comes a day
Your ol' friend becomes a burden
So you tell him, "Go way!"
"I'm sick of all your sermons!"
Finally you're free!
Free to be whatever
Free to let yourself just be
And follow nothing forever
Thank you Maj Harrison for your courage, integrity, humility as well as your understanding the suffering of those under occupation.
Amen ❤ this is not easy to do
Heroism is not blind. This is heroism.
What I find interesting is the number of comments posted on this interview. But I suppose it takes one brave person to recognize the obvious and act according to their conscience others find disturbing. Major Harrison Mann demonstrates exemplar moral courage who should serve as a model for all. Thank you, Major Mann, for speaking plainly on unconscionable acts endorsed by others. You will be remembered, as will your colleagues, who had the integrity to speak and act despite the current of opposition faced. This is a ray of sunshine when other mornings are dark.
Thanks for service and compassion for humanity.
And what was it about the War in Gaza that forced him to resign? Being tried for warcrimes?
Bravo, sir!
❤thank you help free Palestine from Israeli
LOL. Hold your breath until narnia is established as well.
A brave and honorable man with integrity. A rare breed these days in government. ❤
3/4 casualties in Gaza women and children
Even if that were triue, are you seriously crediting the IDF with MAGICAL powers to be able to tell where "only the civiolians are"/ Or are you just ignoring how Hamas operates?

How come msnbc hasn’t fired Velshi for telling the truth?
Finally, a military personnel have seen enough.
This man has to face becoming a possible pariah among his Jewish community. Yet he still chose to listen to his morality rather than take the easy route and turn a blind eye. That is a man of integrity. This is the kind of people America should elect as leaders. My respect to you Major.
" Do unto others as you would like them to do unto you."
A real man of honour and integrity! Thank you Major Mann.
Choice to be a civilian
A real men
This is strange. The US helped this Jewish Army Major do his job.
What is even stranger is how you obviously have no idea what you;re talking about.
It’s important that people like him do this. I hope it gives impetus to other military personnel to support his stance and get it stopped. A friend called out the Jews to me this morning for what is happening in Gaza. I responded that I blamed the Israeli government but refused to blame the Jews. He has reassured me about that sentiment.
I have major respect for that major for resignin.

I thank Harrison Mann for his courage and bravery this man has dignity he has morals this the type of people should lead in the world not the cowards and the biased
It made NO difference.... did it stop Hamas ???? NO
Salute to you, Major, and thank you for your service

Thank You very much Major Sir 🤲🤲🤲
Interesting that the reporter didnt specifically ask him why he is against the war and what he wirnessed.
❤
This man's resignation is good but nobody with a conscience should ever touch the murderous killing machine known as the US military with a six foot pole. Ethical people do not spend their lives ''serving'' their country by destroying someone else's.
Is there a Cult of Nyetanyahoo?
Yes, MAGA of course.
Apparently, his most ardent supporters are religious zealots ....

Natenyahu s selfishness has destroyed decades of peace work in the middle east. Would Israel be safer after this genocide? How many generations will it take for Palestinians and the world to get over these massacres?

The more left wing people that resign their spots get filled with right wing people so what does this accomplish? You actually had a position that could do something and you left to give it to a trump supporter
There is some decency after all. Maybe.
