The airman, who filmed the incident and could be heard yelling “Free Palestine,” was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after collapsing to the ground.

The U.S. Air Force member who set himself on fire outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., in an apparent protest against the Israel-Hamas war has died, according to a U.S. official.

Next of kin notification is continuing, so the Air Force won’t release his name until 24 hours after the final notification is complete.


The District of Columbia Fire and Emergency Medical Service Department responded to a call about a person on fire outside the embassy just before 1 p.m. Sunday, and found the flames extinguished by the Secret Service’s uniformed division


The airman filmed the protest, yelling “Free Palestine” and collapsing to the ground.

He was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries, the department said.

The embassy said that no staff members were injured.

The incident comes as the Israel-Hamas war has stretched into its fourth month.

Very sad, may his soul rest in peace and I pray God forgive his sins.

When a US soldier does this to himself, you know for sure that the world is truly in a horrific state.

He died a hero no matter what anyone says about him and he died fighting for the freedom of Palestinians.

He also sent a powerful message to Israel and his country USA.

I'm not surprised that some nigerians in their usual characteristic manners are making sadistic comments insulting him, may God have mercy on you people.

People should be mindful of what they do.
The devil is out to snatch souls to hell through every available means.

Standing with ISRAEL is not Political. It is BIBLICAL.
Standing with ISRAEL is standing with GOD ALMIGHTY.
It does not matter who says what or who makes noise here and there.

ISRAEL is GOD'S signet on the Face of the Earth.
Fighthing against ISRAEL is Fighting against GOD. You will end up killing yourself and jumping into Hell.

May you not depart for a devilish cause.

Righteousness2:

Pastor, if we check well, he probably had cancer or erectile dysfunction and decided to cover it up with suicide.

No man with a functioning preeq wants to die anyhow knowing the destruction he causes with it.

Foolishness in as much as I hate the bloodshed going on in gaza ,but this goat killing himself foe it is acute folly ..he should have resigned from Airforce and go away...instead of playing himself into the arms of Satan in hell fire 🔥....indeed this life is somehow..this is a US citizen whom most Africans will wish to be in his shoes due to the prosperity of USA and this guy just relinquished his citizenship by killing himself...imagine this guy to be a Nigerian in this hard times ..

I will no longer be complicit in a genocide. Aaron Bushnell, a 25-year-old US Air force personnel said, referring to Israel's ongoing genocide in Palestine.

Remember folks: Aaron Bushnell is white. He is American. He is a Christian. And he burned himself to protest Israel's mass murder of Palestinians.

This is not a religious war as the western media is trying to spin it. Palestinians are a combination of Arab Christians, Muslims, and Jews.

The so-called Israeli Jews are European Jews who the Europeans rejected and were made to go live in Palestine after World War II.

Instead of living like good neighbors, they hijacked the country (like all European colonists do), brought in more European Jews, and are trying to chase the Arab Christians, Muslims, and Jews out of Palestine.

He died for a cause.. I don't support any kind of war.
Israel is fighting for a reason
Palestines too are fighting for a reason,
They should reason together to make peace(which I doubt).
It's none of my business, because if the war escalates it will not get to Nigeria..
Nigeria on the other hand is facing HUNGER GAMES, which is more worse than their war.
