Former Biden State Department Official: ‘Israel Has Committed War Crimes’

  • In January 2025, former Biden administration spokesperson Matthew Miller expressed his belief that Israel engaged in war crimes during the ongoing conflict in Gaza that began in October 2023.
  • This conflict began after Hamas's October 2023 attacks on Israel and has resulted in at least 54,000 Palestinian deaths amid international outcry and ICC arrest warrants for Israeli officials.
  • Miller explained that the Biden administration supported Israel with over $17 billion in military aid but failed to secure lasting ceasefires or deliver vital aid to Palestinians facing famine and displacement.
  • He acknowledged that Israeli forces have unquestionably committed war crimes, while noting that the U.S. government has not formally reached this conclusion and expressing uncertainty about whether Israel will adequately hold its military accountable.
  • Miller reflected that the administration possibly could have pressured Israel more toward ceasefires while noting political debates and protests influenced Hamas's reluctance to agree to them.
