According to Reuters, “Hale Ghareit”, the deputy of the media center of the US Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Dubai, who also held the official title of Arabic language spokesperson of the US Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has resigned from his position in protest.

The reason for the resignation of this American official is opposition to Washington’s policy regarding the Gaza war. Haleh Ghareit wrote on her account on cyberspace about her resignation: “I resigned in April 2024 after 18 years of distinguished service in the State Department, in opposition to the United States’ Gaza policy.”

Gharit’s resignation is at least the third resignation from the US State Department over opposition to the Gaza war. Almost a month ago, “Anel Shelin” announced his resignation from the human rights office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and “Josh Paul”, the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, resigned in October at the same time as the war against Gaza began.

Dissatisfaction with the government’s support for the Gaza war is very high in America. At the same time, protests in various American universities in support of Gaza continue, and the protest sit-in of students on the campus of George Washington University in the American capital, despite the warning of the police and university officials, has not been collected.

This is despite the fact that earlier the university authorities had given a specific time to end the protest tents and now despite the passing of the deadline for removing the tents, the protest gathering and sit-ins continue.

Protests continue at New York’s Columbia University, and university officials have announced that if discussions with students are not successful, they should consider other options to restore peace on campus.

According to the statistics provided by N. B. 30, students of at least 40 American and Canadian universities and colleges have set up a sit-in tent in solidarity with Gaza, and these sit-ins continue despite warnings and police intervention.

The American police also announced after the raid on Indiana University: that at least 33 people were arrested on the campus after the protesters refused to remove the tent structures.

According to official reports, during the student protests in support of Palestine, the American authorities have so far arrested about 100 participants in the student protests at the University of Southern California and dozens of people at the University of Texas in Austin.

It is also reported that the US authorities arrested at least two professors at Emory University in Georgia as part of the people participating in the university demonstrations against the war in Gaza.

According to the published news, the head of Emory University’s philosophy department is among those arrested.

At the same time as the student protests continue in the United States to support the people of Gaza, “Chris Carr”, the Attorney General of Georgia, has supported the suppression of protesting students by the police in his user account on the X network (former Twitter).

“We will proudly stand with any university that takes the necessary steps to protect the health and safety of Georgia students,” the Georgia attorney general said in a statement about the protests.

Student protests in America in support of Palestine and to stop the war in Gaza have been met with a strong reaction and suppression by American police forces. In this connection, Amnesty International reacted by stating the suppression of peaceful protests by American university students in support of the Palestinian nation.

Referring to the actions of American security forces, Amnesty International said: that these protests were met with a repressive response, including the arrest and expulsion of students.
