Two U.S. Air Force members are seeking conscientious objector status over the U.S.'s role in the conflict in Gaza. Larry Hebert is attempting to be declared a conscientious objector and discharged from the military due to the U.S.'s support for Israel’s war on Gaza, stating, “There's no serving the American people in our current policies.” Palestinian-American Air Force Chief Mohammed Abu Hashem has resigned, citing U.S. complicity in what he describes as Israeli genocide in Gaza, declaring, “I can’t be part of the system that enabled this.” Harrison Mann, a U.S. Army major, also resigned from the Defense Intelligence Agency over similar concerns, noting that many intelligence agents share his frustration.
