Thank you for your moral courage and clarity of thought. I find it disheartening at times how the Zionists keep trying to belittle Aaron's sacrifice... But then Caitlin and others demonstrate that his protest was heard and understood. We will continue fighting. We will stop this horrific genocide and we will lock up the war criminals. Soon.
Brilliant piece. This is not meant to sound in poor taste even though it will, but it makes the point. - Aaron Bushnell’s life may have gone up in flames but the his life has doused in love the Palestinian spirit and cause. RIP a great and true warrior.
Ugh I am sorry for asking this question in this forum. Am curious as to what kind of accelerant he used? God I can’t imagine the pain. Can’t imagine the fury in his heart as he lit himself aflame. I understand it tho. No I couldn’t do it. Takes balls of fucking steel in my book.
No Luke I don't think he would have fury in his heart. Fury leads to attacking others not oneself. I think his whole being would have been gripped by an overwhelming sadness at the savage extermination of defenseless Gaza civilians especially the children
This reminds me of the monks that protested the US war on VietNam with self immolation . I don‘t think we ever were shown these protests but we certainly heard about them and it greatly added to the nationwide US protests that stopped the war.
Here in Australia we did see very brief viewing of the monks self immolation.What the American war machine did in Vietnam was cruel in Mi Li and the other wiped out villages and people were vile acts but their zionists soul mates have commited much worse acts of barbarity
Yes we need to come together in resolute united action.First we need to convince our mind deadened compatriots to awaked from their deadly induced sleep. The we need o reform.the global peace movements which were a feature of the immediate past . Then we need to organise into vast groups of nonviolent masses trained in consensus decision making and the strict limits of action. Then we need to resolutely act . Will these mass actions led to immediate success? No they won't and the second wave will need to be so massive and deadening that the societies begin to grind to a stop. That is when the servants of the Hegemon will be ordered to open fire on the peaceful masses Eventually After many hundreds of thousands of us have been killed there will be sickened resistance from the forces of the Hegemon .Then the tide may begin to turn. If not not and the future of human civilisation would be in grave doubt.
What a fantastic painting. It's also fantastic for how you have emphasized Aarons unfathomable courag and statement. Let us not allow the depth of his act be in vain in any way. Brilliant painting and video.
Caitlin, a beautiful tribute to a Martyr and hero Aaron Bushnell. So much sorrow, and, so much empathy where there is little for the Palestinian People from the u.s. Gov.

Thanks for the audio message. Kudos to people such as Annelle Sheline standing against the ruling class who once paid her.
Yes, Annelle really laid it on the line. It was brave of her. I hope her future career isn't totally ruined by her honesty.
Here's Democracy Now's interview with her - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRI-MtoSD_E
I LOVE YOU BUSHNELL

I prefer honest words that may be viewed to be in poor taste to glib lies.
The pun is a statement of honor in my world.

Aaron Bushnell, Rest In Power. Repeat his last words "FREE PALESTINE"...

Not all heroes wear capes some self-immolate
