video is not hard to find online 

"“I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I’m about to engage in an extreme act of protest. But compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.”

he joins martyrs like Romas Kalanta, Jan Palach and Jan Zajic... all of whom gave their lives to protest tyranny and won in the end.

RIP

Clearly not a well man.

apparently he did a lot of volunteering to assist homeless people in San Antonio.... his fellow volunteers describe him as kind hardworking and principled.

[naomi24]

So what?  His protest will have zero effect on the war.  A waste of his life.

//So what?//

Hmm

[1ozzy]

Someone obviously cares more than just being an AB keyboard warrior.

Unlike some😒

[Countrylover]

Very, very sad.  Obviously mentally ill because of what he has been required to do.

06:13, so I assume you will be following the example then ozzy?

[ToraToraTora]

The guy is obviously Radio, another victim of Hamas.

[Countrylover]

Radio?

That's a very romantic notion - there will have been many more self-immolators who achieved absolutely nothing except their own painful death.

[ToraToraTora]

Martyrs my April, only in the eyes of fools. Waste their own life in a painful death for a few headlines. Like I said Radio rental.

[Khandro]

A nutter, ignorant of politics and history.

and there are plenty like Jan Palach or the vietnamese monks who are remembered for their stand against evil.

you call him insane because the alternative is to reckon with what could cause a person to do this... and that can't be a comfortable thing for those who support genocide.  

[andy-hughes]

It's easy to say that any protest will not affect an outcome, but if no-one protested, nothing would ever change.

[ToraToraTora]

untitled: "and that can't be a comfortable thing for those who support genocide.  " - You mean Islam? They are the ones that want to exterminate us all.

i actually meant those who support israel's sacking of gaza

So what?  His protest will have zero effect on the war.  A waste of his life.

noop ( damn I have been told not to do that)

Thich Quang Duc was a Buddhist monk protesting in South Vietnam, when his image captivated the world. Malcolm Browne won the World Press Photo of the Year in 1963 photographing Duc committing an act of self-immolation, burning to death.

Mme Nhu ( dragon lady ) famously said - well if these people want to make human barbecues of themselves....

changed the course of that war

[Peter Pedant]

sacking -  - razing more like

what is one when 20 000 dead doesnt seem to have had an effect ( of wh 2000 are children)

one is a tragedy, a milllion dead is a statistic (Stalin)
