00:00Former U.S. officials who quit over U.S. support for Israel's war in Gaza accused President
00:06Joe Biden's administration of undeniable complicity in Palestinian killings.
00:11In a joint statement, a dozen former officials say the administration was violating U.S.
00:16laws through its support for Israel and finding loopholes to continue shipping weapons to
00:20its ally.
00:22This as Israel's offensives and U.S. support of the war faced mounting international criticism.
00:27The war in Gaza has killed nearly 38,000 people and has created a humanitarian crisis.
00:33Meantime, Biden faces increasing pressure to bow out of his 2024 re-election bid following
00:39his performance in the presidential debate against Donald Trump.
00:42A House Democratic aide says there are 25 Democratic members of the House preparing
00:47to call for Biden to step aside.
00:49But White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says Biden did not have an episode, just a
00:54bad night.
