Feroz published an op-ed in the New York Times with the results of the survey. A group of the doctors wrote two letters to then-President Biden outlining what they saw. Froese thought that would mean two things. They'd get a call from the White House and there'd be an investigation.

I talked with three people who worked at the U.S. State Department and reviewed allegations like this, including the person who until recently was the Ambassador-at-Large for Global Criminal Justice, a position that used to be called the War Crimes Ambassador.

Each of them said the next step should be asking Israel for answers. One who was involved in vetting U.S. weapons transfers told me if this had been another country other than Israel, this is what would have happened. A few years ago, a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee received reports that Mexican Marine units were executing and disappearing people. The U.S.

stopped a shipment of machine guns for more than two years while they investigated the allegations. Eventually, Mexico agreed that American weapons wouldn't go to those units. But that isn't what happened here. The Biden administration never met with Rosenmark. They didn't investigate these claims or make any public statements asking Israel to stop shooting kids in Gaza.
