Has the US government acknowledged even one of these?
If Biden doesn’t ignore it entirely, he’ll call it an accident or whatever Netanyahu-senpai tells him to say.
Q — outside an Israeli — or outside the Israel Embassy. Was the President aware of his death? Did he have any sort of response to it?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Yes, the President is aware. And we can — I can say that it is — obviously, is a — it’s a horrible tragedy, and our thoughts are with the family of the servicemember at — during this — I could — we can’t even imagine this hor- — horrible, difficult time.
Just thoughts and prayers. No acknowledgement of his reasons why, no policy change, just more weapons sent for Israel’s genocide
You really don’t want to have policy be swayed by suicides. It encourages more people to kill themselves.

Yes I do.
Then you’re letting sentiment drive you rather than reason.
And just to be really fucking clear: I’m against the genocide that is being inflicted on the people of Gaza. But I refuse to allow that someone’s opinion should be given more weight than mine just because they mutilate or kill themselves. Their mental disorder doesn’t confer moral superiority, it detracts from it.

For reasons that should be obvious an individual protest, no matter how extreme, will never be a factor in foreign policy decisions.
Yeah. The only real factor is “what does Netanyahu-senpai want?”

The true factor is that Israel is a solid foothold for the US in the Middle East long term.
Well, that’s the excuse.
Don’t absolve Biden and the US of our level of culpability by reducing us to followers led astray by Netanyahu
Led astray? No. Enthusiastically complicit.
There have been so many genocides in the history of humanity, none in recent history are unique or the worst.
If you care about others, you’re exactly the person who shouldn’t kill yourself.
If you care about others, you’re exactly the person who shouldn’t kill yourself.
The carnage just isn’t as entertaining without being able to gloat at people who object to it.
Who’s gloating?
The people that don’t care.
Unbelievable that someone would be brave enough to do this. Respect… rest in peace.
No. I refuse to glorify suicide. Anyone thinking of setting themselves on fire needs help. This is awful.
And yet here we are talking about it. Like the whole goal might have been?
Oh great, you got to talk about something on the internet. That made someone dying worthwhile.
A person killed himself and some internet ghouls think it’s a good thing.
Some people think suicide is quite romantic.
He set himself on fire to raise suicide awareness? I thought it was about the Palestinians… Pretty sure everyone was already aware of that situation. In any case, it’s incredibly sad and I don’t support it.
What’s the point when all day erryday we hear about the war anyway?

This man is a martyr and a hero
He’s a man who, in a less dysfunctional society, might have gotten the mental-health treatment he needed. He’s neither a martyr nor a hero.
and he didn’t kill himself
Oh yes, he fucking did. And Netanyahu cares as little now as before this poor suffering fool offed himself. The grand gesture accomplished nothing.
To each their own
People are “brave” enough to put a shotgun in their mouth and pull the trigger too. That’s not worthy of respect, it’s the symptom of a disease. And we’ll all rest the same way, since the afterlife is a bronze-age fairy tale.
Idk its their life to do what they want with it.
Be Careful Americans! If Israel causes you to Kill Yourself that’s a Kill for them and we ALWAYS Punish Israel’s Murdering of Americans with MORE BOMBS!
RIP and we are as a collective weather we like it or not. I didn’t forget about a climate scientist doing the same thing.
