Air Force Confirms Uniformed Active Duty Member Self-Immolated In Front Of Israeli Embassy In D.C. (ZeroHedge)
The US Air Force late in the day Sunday confirmed that one of its own active duty members was the man who set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington DC in order to protest the Gaza war.
While in military uniform, the man was heard saying he "will no longer be complicit in genocide" and then self-immolated, an act recorded in live-streamed video which has since been removed from his Twitch channel. The US Air Force issued a statement through a spokesperson saying "I can confirm an active duty Airman was involved in today’s incident."
Fact Check: Did Mossad Celebrate Aaron Bushnell's Self-Immolation? (Newsweek)
Former Utah senatorial candidate Sam Parker posted the screengrab and wrote "'Our Greatest Ally' everybody. They see US servicemen—literally their allies—as the enemy. You think @BenShapiro, @Libsoftiktok, or @EndWokeness will condemn this response by the Mossad? Still want to go k*ll and di for Israel? RIP Aaron Bushnell, Free Palestine."
Dr. Anastasia Maria Loupis posted the same image, writing: "Why did @MOSSADil delete this tweet calling a US soldier their enemy?"

[Analyst note: self immolation is very rare. There are few studies, but according to a study conducted in 2017, those of European decent are the least likely to self-immolate, furthermore, political reasons weren’t common. 17 suicide by fire cases were uncovered in the US, which is equivalent to 0.00000000005% of the population. There are no records of US Air Force members conducting self-immolation prior to this date.
Several alternative media quickly pointed out that Mossad was celebrating this death. It seems odd that a highly secretive organization would so publicly mock such an event - and even stranger that it would be rapidly found by highly popular (likely captured) channels and immediately shared, to ensure people saw the message.
According to the UK Daily Mail, another captured source, “He (Bushnell) has apparent links to at least two anarchist groups, Burning River Anarchist Collective and Mutual Aid Street Solidarity.”
Airman Bushnell was in “DevOps” which isn’t a specific AFSC, but the likely AFSC’s tied to this would require a Top Secret clearance. Yet another wrinkle in this narrative, as they somehow missed his extremist ties, which UK Daily Mail found in hours.
There isn’t much to go on here, however, this doesn’t pass the smell test, too many elements don’t add up.
This feels like a planned and staged event, in which this airman may have been manipulated by outside forces - to further a Hegelian Dialectic, ultimately achieving a left-right, Pro-Palestine vs Pro-Israel stance and divide, tied to current political policies. This is all part of a greater play for civil unrest, division and a planned civil war.]
