    At the first sight it is not at all clear for non-Bostonians that the incident took place "right across the street from the Israeli Consulate."

  10. I can totally get and understand #AaronBushnell setting himself on fire in front of the #Jewish #Embassy in #WashingtonDC since as an active duty airman in the US Armed Forces he couldn't stomach being complicit in #Israel's #genocide, and while his sacrifice was heroic (if not tragic), I completely understand why he did what he did.

    May he rest in peace.

    What I do not get is why some crazy guy in
    #NewYork today just outside the courthouse where #DonaldTrump is on trial #immolated himself.

    For what?

    No word if he's still alive but let me tell you, I just finished watching the video and let's just say that police in DC put out the fire Airman Bushnell started on himself MUCH FASTER than the Police and
    #SecretService that came running to help this guy.

    Dude honestly looked homeless or at the very least very unkempt. And that was before he doused his head and body in gasoline and lit the lighter.

    Not sure if he was saying anything because I'm listening to music on the headphones and honestly I don't think I can stomach listening to someone crying out right now.

    Fuck.

    Donald Trump is not worth it. Nothing that man does is worth it.

    That's three people that have self-immolated themselves in the past six months. (Atlanta, DC, and now New York).

  18. Burnt Offerings

    Aaron Bushnell and the age of immolation

    By Erik Baker

    "The reality is that self-immolation registers the near-total impotence of protest—and even public opinion as such—in the face of a military apparatus completely insulated from external accountability. It the rawest testament to the absence of effective courses of action. When war consists primarily of unelected men in undisclosed locations pouring fire on the heads of people we will never know on the other side of the world, there is very little that ordinary people can do to arrest its progress. But we still have our bodies, and it is in the nature of fire to refuse containment."

  23. The whole #AaronBushnell #selfimmolation thing really shows just how poor psychiatric screening is in the US armed forces.

  24. #UnitedStatesAirForce Airman #AaronBushnell committed #SelfImmolation outside the #IsraeliEmbassy in #WashingtonDC. #Cops arrived on the scene, drew their guns on the burning body, & as usual, useless.

    Bushnell did this in protest of #US backing of #Israel's #Genocide of #Palestinians.

  25. An active-duty airman set himself on fire outside the #IsraeliEmbassy on Sun in #protest to the #Israel #Hamas #war in #Gaza.

    He has been ID’d as 25-year-old #AaronBushnell of San Antonio, he was pronounced dead at a hospital Sun night.

    A video shared online that multiple ofcls said appeared to be posted by #Bushnell shows him referring to his service in the #UnitedStates armed forces & shouting "Free Palestine!" as he burned.

  29. CW: Self-immolation as protest & media coverage

    Why does the media tend to ignore or downplay #SelfImmolation stories?

    The recent man who died after self-immolating outside the Israeli embassy in D.C. barely made a blip.

    A couple of years ago, when climate scientists were doing it, it was barely reported at all.

    It is the most dire form of protest, and it, at the very least, deserves our attention. These people died because they wanted to bring attention to the cause with their own lives. They died to make the world better.

  31. An active duty air force member has self-immolated in protest over US Gaza policy--saying he can't be complicit in genocide. The first was in December. When I was younger, this was a common form of protest in/around India. I wonder what the US will do if this catches on here, like mass shooting did/has?
