#AaronBushnell was the name of an active-duty U.S. Air Force airman who self-immolated outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., in February 2024 as a protest against the war in Gaza.

@IAmDannyBoling @mcnado thinking about that US Solider who self immolated over the USA's involvement in the Gaza Genocide, Aaron Bushnell.

I'd like to reming everyone of #AaronBushnell 's last words, "This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.”
Of course "murder is wrong", #Israel carries out 70 murders every day in Gaza, in average.
Dozens of infants have succumbed to undernourishment and thousands of those that survive will face livelong consequences.
And now, the American government is preparing a clamp down to defend that level of constant violence.

"Ken Klippenstein, che aveva pubblicato per primo uno dei manifesti di Luigi Mangione (risultato poi autentico) ha pubblicato da poco il manifesto di #EliasRodriguez, il killer dei due membri dell'ambasciata israeliana a New York.Il testo lungo tre cartelle, cita precedenti diversi, non solo #AaronBushnell, il militare che si immolò lo scorso anno di fronte all'ambasciata israeliana a #Washington, ma anche avvenimenti lontani, dal genocidio dei #Maya alla guerra del #Vietnam.
A leggerlo, siamo di fronte, in modo abbastanza puntuale a motivazioni e aspettative che assomigliano più a quelle di #LuigiMangione che a quelle di un 'terrorista antisemita' per come uno se lo potrebbe aspettare. È come se Mangione avesse aperto una nuova retorica di "propaganda armata" in cui il termine terrorismo fatica ad essere applicato."

(...)
writing:
“We who let this happen will never deserve the Palestinians' forgiveness. They've let us know as much.”
Rodriguez frames his act not as random violence but as “armed demonstration,” drawing parallels to historical cases of protest against impunity, including an attempt to throw Robert McNamara off a ferry in protest of Vietnam war crimes. He references Aaron Bushnell, the US airman who self-immolated in front of the Israeli Embassy in February, writing:
“Bushnell and others sacrificed themselves ... and the state works to make us feel their sacrifice was made in vain ... We can't let them succeed.”
In his closing, Rodriguez reflects on the morality of action, expressing that the perpetrators of genocide may still be recognizably human, and that humanity “doesn’t exempt one from accountability.” He ends with a message to his family and signs off with:
“Free Palestine – Elias Rodriguez.”

Wondering #WHY there is no article about #US airman #AaronBushnell on #German - #Wikipedia? What's the secret that people in #Deutschland must not know?

Rest in power, Aaron.

刷到一则tiktok才想起来
#AaronBushnell 于一年前的2024年2月25日以色列驻美大使馆门前自焚，以抗议以色列对加沙地带巴勒斯坦人民的种族大屠杀
他的遗言是「Free Palestine」
he was protesting against "what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers" and declared that he "will no longer be complicit in genocide"
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-immolation_of_Aaron_Bushnell他将最终极的暴力施加于自己的生命（#神圣暴力），寄望以不启动暴力循环的方式来呼唤人性、唤醒社会对生命的敬畏
请别允许人类社会忘记他 -

Uhuru Party holds vigil in St Pete FL on anniversary of Aaron Bushnell's sacrifice at the Israeli Embassy.
On the 25th of Feb 2025, vigils were held in many places for Aaron Bushnell. One of these was in front of City Hall in St Petersburg FL, hosted by the Uhuru Party which calls St Pete one of their two home bases. Activists from many groups showed up from as far away as Ocala.
A representative of the American Indian Movement (AIM) spoke as well, emphasizing that the US occupation of Turtle Island and the US-funded Israeli occupation of Palestine are basically the same thing. The term "Manifest Destiny" is just as valid describing Netanyahu's brutal ambitions as it was for describing Andrew Jackson's murderous anti-Indigenous ways.
One year ago on Feb 25, active duty US Airman Aaron Bushnell showed up at the Israeli Embassy and set himself on fire, yelling "Free Palestine!" Before doing so, he said the "extreme act of protest" he was about to carry out was not extreme at all compared to the suffering imposed on Palestinians by Israel.
Now, with so many Palestinians coming home from Israeli dungeons in the Flood of the Free bearing marks of extreme torture, we see this is clearly the case. There are also the thousands of Palestinians burned alive by Israel's white phosphorus and similar bombs. High explosive bombs usually kill by blast, fragmentation, and by collapsing buildings onto their occupants but can also start deadly fires as well.
Compared to this, Aaron is right: there is nothing extreme about his martyrdom, recognized as such by multiple fighting resistance groups in Occupied Palestine.

🕯One year ago, 25-year-old US Air Force Serviceman Aaron Bushnell sacrificed his life to take a valiant stand against US-sponsored genocide in Palestine.
Honor Aaron Bushnell's legacy and carry on the fight for a free Palestine!

"His act, far from being something of selfishness and suicide, was one of life and sober, revolutionary contemplation. He deserves to be remembered not as a man with deep internal struggles who chose suicide, but as a man who put himself through unthinkable pain to push us one step closer to a liberated Palestine and a liberated world."

One year ago, today. Rest in Power Aaron.

Hoy se cumple un año desde que #AaronBushnell se autoinmoló prendiéndose fuego frente a la embajada de #Israel en Washington DC para exigir el fin del genocidio en #Gaza.
Aaron dejo escrito "A muchos nos gusta preguntarnos: "¿Qué haría yo si estuviera vivo durante la esclavitud en Estados Unidos? ¿O en el Sur de Jim Crow? ¿O durante el apartheid? ¿Qué haría yo si mi país estuviera cometiendo un genocidio? La respuesta es que lo está haciendo. Ahora mismo."
Nuestros héroes #NuncaEnElOlvido!

Hier samedi 22 février je suis intervenu lors de la manif Gaza de Toulon pour évoquer la mémoire de Aaron Bushnell, qui s'est immolé par le feu, le 25 février 2024, pour dire son refus d'être complice du génocide, et lire un de mes poèmes.
Voici la vidéo de mon intervention sur Peertube, avec une transcription.

A thought occurred to me about the actions #LuigiMangione took to protest against the intentional taking of innocent lives while remembering the actions #AaronBushnell took to protest a similar US corporate crime of killing for profit.
I wonder which choice of action was the more effective at bringing about change. It could be argued that they both sacrificed themselves for the benefit of others.
