Why? You think I’m pro Muslim or a staunch human rights activist? I’m not. I don’t care what they do, I just can’t stand hypocrisy and us propping them up for one reason while claiming we are against others for the same reasons

1. Pretty obvious he wasn't trying to do real harm. Fire only on the backside. Plus wearing full weight BDU's and got them pulled down in a warm environment. Staged for photo etc and I'm betting extinguisher close and done quickly.
2. Hopefully his medical records are recorded as self-inflicted so American taxpayers are not on the line for any care required post-discharge.

He’s dead. Read before posting.

I’m not. I’m against both sides in this conflict.
I don’t know what the image is. Enlighten me

Again, he died.

“ Propping them up “ is silly season language, a reflex of someone who has a narrative that overrides facts. Israel has propped itself up. 3 billion a year ain’t much compared against their GDP- less than 1%.
This is about Realpolitik. We support Israel because they are aligned with our foreign policy goals, which is a Sunni Arab State alignment in peace with Israel against Shia Iran and its terror state proxies. This is about the Kingdom far more than it is about Israel.

Correct.
If anything, we;ve paid for restraint and influence. We're paying their enemies too.

The unedited video is floating around out there. I saw two still photos when he’s fully engulfed. It’s brutal.
The amount of support I’ve seen on left leaning platforms, such as Reddit is disgusting. They sure like to preach about life but have no concern or regard for this young man’s life or whatever MH issues he obviously struggled with.
There were other ways to promote peace and dignity of life. Torturing himself and causing anguish to his family was selfish to the max.
I could be wrong as I didn’t know him, but he comes off as the type of person who was brainwashed and triggered by social media and it’s black/white tendencies. Couldn’t he do something as simple as serve people ( homeless shelters, soup kitchens, food pantries, etc)?

We pay their enemies to have peace with them. That is how they got peace with Egypt. It is the premise of the Abraham accords

As a former First Sergeant in the USAF, this would have been a fun one to deal with. I say that sarcastically of course. He is on the fast track out the door, this is a big black eye on the Air Force and the armed forces in general.

Hopefully more liberals will duplicate.

You mean "in the door" of the morgue.

Because it was posted yesterday, and you're now on page 11 of the thread a day later.

You’d think you learned to be fully informed before commenting.

This is the current woke military. I expect them to name an Air Force base after him.

The Liberty is all you Israel hating asshats have, and you predictably trot it out every time. Now I don't love or hate Israel, but I do hate a-hole terrorists like Hamas. I say let them settle it on their own and keep us out of it, but we know the MIC will never let that happen.

Looks like he should be in the marching band, not soldiering.
But its the air force.
