"Hamas demands for a hostag swap were delusional"

I expected the Arab muslim world to have more honor.

All that religious talk and power, only to let their ethnic and religious “family” go out like that in front of the world.

Shameful.

Palestinians have a very valid reason to feel some type of way.

All about cash unfortunately. Clear as day. Imean Khalid won't even talk on it....

That would defeat the purpose of his protest.

The fact that media is intentionally refusing to report that it was an act of protest means that they care.

Furthermore, this man’s self-immolation is bringing more awareness. It’s not just that he did it, it’s that he was a member of the military.

Change isn’t born from one action, but many hundreds and thousands of escalating actions over time. In my life I’ve literally led a movement for policy change in my city. Awareness is the first step.
