[QUOTE="Depresso, post: 80879, member: 347"] Yes, absolutely. We both know that he knew that it was futile and that does not take away anything from his agency. He simply chose to be remembered for what he saw as genocide. He poured gasoline on himself and he knew that was not going to change anything about the Palestinian genocide. He chose his grave. He stares back at you through his picture. Can you not see that? Reread my first post about him on this forum.
