Læs om den chokerende protest af US Airman, Aaron Bushnell, der satte sig selv i brand uden for den israelske ambassade i Washington DC. Hvad var hans motiv?

Aaron Bushnell, en aktivt tjenende medlem af US Air Force, chokerede verden ved at tage ekstreme skridt i sin protest mod det, han hævdede var folkedrabet på det palæstinensiske folk. Ved at sætte sig selv i brand foran den israelske ambassade i Washington DC blev Aaron Bushnell straks et omdiskuteret emne. Hans handling blev tolket som en frygtelig protest mod konflikten i Gaza, og hans sidste besked på Facebook om, hvad han ville gøre i tilfælde af påstået folkedrab, fik mange til at stoppe op og tænke. Bushnells tragiske død afstedkom en bølge af spekulation og debat om både hans bevæggrunde og konflikten i Mellemøsten. Hvad førte en ung amerikansk luftmand til at gribe til så ekstreme midler og sætte sit eget liv i spil?Aaron Bushnells handlinger fik også Mossad og den israelske hemmelige tjeneste på dagsordenen. Spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt Mossad fejrede eller latterliggjorde Bushnells selvimmolation, blev heftigt diskuteret. Den tragiske begivenhed skabte ikke kun overskrifter, men satte også fokus på den globale bekymring for konflikten mellem Israel og Palæstina. Bushnells dristige handlinge har kastet lys over en skræmmende virkelighed, der er alt for ofte skjult for offentligheden. En tragedie, der har rystet en nation til dens kerne, og som rejser dybe spørgsmål om fred, retfærdighed og menneskets desperate handlinger i mødet med uretfærdighed.
