"Rest in power Aaron Bushnell. I will no longer be complicit in genocide. Free Palestine! May his sacrifice deepen our commitment to stop genocide now.
This extraordinary sacrifice brings into greater focus the immense horror that our government is committing in our name. Aaron Bushnell was very clear that he committed this extreme act to protest our government's extreme policies that are killing thousands of innocent people in horrific ways. His sacrifice is reminiscent of that of Buddhist monks protesting US-backed oppression of their people in Vietnam. It is truly tragic that the horrific actions of the US and Israel have provoked such a desperate sacrifice."
