If she had a problem with it, she wouldn't have been put into that role. If your boss wants you to do something unethical, you should either resign or speak up against it. Anything else is full complicity.

You don't remember the last admin?

Shit got worse when people resigned and were replaced by worse people...

Did you miss all of that?

If everyone that wants to do the right thing resigns and are replaced by people willing to do anything, the net result is the admin gets worse while retaining all the same power.

Sometimes you have to do all the good you can do, or choose to do nothing at all.

That's just life...

So you think that Biden will replace her with someone who will be in more in favor of genocide? Why do you insist on holding the Democrats to such a low bar, rather than getting them to do something beyond just "not be Republicans"?

Absolutely, Biden supports Israel unconditionally and even went around Congress to avoid a delay in a weapons shipment. That violated US and international law and makes him a full on war criminal.

But an ambassader has absolutely no power to do anything about it. They have almost no power really, just a whole bunch of privilege which is why those spots are usually favors.

She can stay and try to do what little good she can and use the platform afforded by her position to advocate for the right thing...

Or she could resign and maybe have a single article written while her replacement would be appointed by Biden.

This ain't complicated man. But it's important to understand so if you still have questions I'll answer them.
