Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Republicans have blamed Aaron Bushnell burning himself alive on ‘mental illness’ following viral fire uncensored footage outside the Israeli embassy in Washington D.C.
An active-duty member of the Air Force burned himself in uniform outside the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C., on Sunday evening in what appears to be an ignorant attempt by a young leftist in our military to protest Israel’s war against Hamas.
As the fire blazed, the man reportedly shouted “Free Palestine.”
Bushnell burned for about a minute before he fell to the ground, according to the video.
Emergency alarms could be heard in the background as onlookers called on Bushnell to get on the ground.
The protest was reportedly live-streamed on Twitch, showing Bushnell walking up to the embassy gates.
He was taken to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries and is in critical condition.
Rose Riley, a spokesperson for the US Air Force, confirmed to CNN that an “active duty Airman was involved in today’s incident.”
A suspicious vehicle was also investigated for possible explosives, however, a spokesman said the scene had been cleared by 4 pm.
Officers with the Secret Service and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, worked with Washington’s explosive ordinance disposal unit to investigate the scene.
