tonight on expose, western media and actively described the reason behind aaron bushnell's actions as a protest on the israeli hamas war, despite him stating it was a protest. the genocide of palestinians at the hands of the designist entity. now the new york times is embroiled in controversy over a discridited article claiming hamas sexually assaulted a zionist settler during the al-aqsa flood operation and bushnel hailed as hero receiving praise from many pro palestinian activists who saw his extreme act of protest as success in drawing attention to the genocide and suffering of the palestinian people. welcome to expose, the show the...

leaves no stone unturned, on sunday february 24, aaron bushnel, an active duty member of the us air force passed away from injuries sustained in the fire he lit him. himself with in front of the israeli entity embassy the day before in washington dc in protest of the israeli genocide on palestinians and the complicity of his government in the zinust genocide. bishnel's a final words were free palestine. in a video recorded on his way to the embassy, bushnel said, "i will no longer be complicit in genocide. i'm about to engage an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in palestine at the hands of the..." colonizers, it's not extreme at

all. this is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.nel explained in the video he streamed before he set himself on fire. let us see what mr. our broadcast expert and writer at the cradle has about this issue in fake news expose. aaron bushnell a name that will go down in history as a man who... opted sacrifice his own life to protest his country's involvement in genocide against the palestinian people, however, as expected, western and zionist media made sure to smear his name every chance they got and went as far as accused him of being mentally ill. foad will tell us more about this smearing campaign. go ahead, so let's start with msnbc's coverage of aaron buschnell and his heroic self emilation, so aaron bushnell, the us air force airman, msn.

he referred to his heroic sacrifice as a protest against the israel hamas war, simplifying it completely, even though he clearly stated in his video that this was an extreme form of protest in solidarity with the palestinians who are having a genocide witged against them, uh, this was the only coverage that msnbc did on aaron bushnell, and it wasn't shared either on their website or on their social media, but the internet caught it, so here's the clip that we found on youtube uh of that live report aired on msnbc where they go... extra mile in fake news, inaccuracy and even disrespect, airing the suicide hotline imply that aaron bushnell was crazy and that this was done because of a mental health issue instead of an extreme form of protest against the genocide, an ongoing genocide, this is so disrespectful, let us see the video, let's take a look, yesterday, 25 year old aaron bushnel of san antonio, texas, the active duty airman in the u.s. air force who set himself on fire outside the israeli embassy an apparent protest against the israel hamas war has

died, that identification made by metropolitan police here. bushnel filmed his own self imolation on his cell phone, yelling free palestine before collapsing to the ground outside the embassy. he was rushed to the hospital for treatment, but later succumbed to his injuries. and if you are someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the suicide aid. wow, yeah, so a uh, this is one example of western. mainstream media, basically assuming the role of defense attorneys for israel through its narratives, which have unfortunately successfully portrayed and occupying power as victim, so our audience is going to see more about that in the mainstream media section with julia, don't get me wrong, i don't mean to imply that every single media outlet uh portrayed this terribly, for example cnn, while their headline was lacking some really crucial context, surprisingly their televised coverage of the matter was not so bad, let's in

focus on that aspect and take a look. well, let's see what cnn had to say about that. authorities identified aaron bushnill as the person who on sunday set himself on fire. the 25-year-old was in. active duty member of the us air force. cnn's gabe cohen joins us now with the details and and gabe, this is something that he did in protest. yeah, that's correct, and we're learning much more about this 25-year-old active duty airman uh, aaron bushnell, as you mentioned, he's from san antonio, texas, and he live streamed his actions on sunday in broad daylight on the streets of dc outside the israeli embassy. we are not going to show that video, it is extremely graphic and... disturbing, i have watched the video, i can tell you at the beginning, at the start of it, you can see bush now walking up to the embassy on the street in his military fatigues, he's speaking calmly to the camera, i want to read a portion of what he says, he said, uh, quote, i will no longer be complicit in

genocide. i am about to engage an extreme active protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in palestine at the hands of their colonizers. it is not extreme at all. this is what our ruling. class has decided will be normal, he then goes to pour some sort of accelerant, it looks like on his head out of water bottle he was carrying, and then he lights himself on fire, boris, and as the flames engulf him, you can hear him yelling, free palestine, free palestine again and again until finally he collapses, and that is when officers, you can see them race in, one of them with fire extinguisher in their hands trying to put out the flames, but it takes time, and as we have learned, bushnell died in the hospital at some point. later on uh, and and look, it really speaks to the tensions that are continuing escalate around the war in gaza, not just across the world, but here in the united states. we saw similar incident in december, when someone self-im-imalated, uh, lit themselves on fire outside of the israeli consulate in atlanta,

but this feels different, this is an active duty member of the military burning himself to death on the streets of the nation's capital. wow, fuad, i mean, that is refreshing despite the... fact that it's a very painful incident, but i mean cnn, this was a bit better, so they related his message, uh, they recounted his last words, they said much more clearly that this was an extreme form of protest instead of calling him crazy like the msnbc did, basically uh, but of course it's cnn, so they didn't mention that israel is starving and killing babies, they didn't go into detail about uh the horrific genocide that's ongoing that we're witnessing a daily basis, but this may be the best that we can expect from western mainstream media, and it is very, very advanced position if i may. thank you very much for your analysis in fake news, expose. ladies and gents, now we move to digital mainstream media. the mainstream media is not

doing a sufficient enough job of informing the audience about the severity of the atrocities being committed by the zionist entity in gaza. julia... our mainstream media expert joins us to tell us more about it. the floor is yours, julia. thanks, marva. so to the extent that mainstream media does actually covered the genocide in against the palestinian people in ghazza? major outlets like the new york times or the washington post have uh published a content that's obviously skewed towards the sionist entity. too little, too late, and five months after the fact if they decide to admit to the crimes at all. so take for example the controversy that is currently. gulfing the new york times. marwa, which is now exposed, one of the co-authors of a discredited piece that accused the palestinian resistance hamas of rape on october 7th, al oxsa flood operation as being a former member of the iof's intelligence unit, and had not even worked as a journalist at all prior to taking

a central role in the new york times coverage of october 7th. so we've covered a story in earlier expose segment uh, but this time it's been revealed that annett schwarz, the co-author of the bad. ly flawed article how hamas weaponiz sexual violence, liked posts on social media that glorified the genocide against palestinians and had no passed by lines in journalism, so audacious that something that only mainstream media would attempt, something so unprofessional and crazy, doesn't it? right, um, as we remember, the article made false claims of sexual violence by hamas on october 7th, uh, this is regular tactic employed by the palestinian resistance group as a weapon of war, uh, so the family of the soldier who was allegedly attacked by hamas on that particular day uh according to this uh piece and was portrayed as key character in the story about rape. gal abdush was furious and actually condemned the account of their daughter uh so the family claimed to have no clue whatsoever that uh gal had been sexually assaulted no proof to back up their allegations and no knowledge

that the times was going to publish story allegging that their daughter had been raped. so a third of the article was devoted uh to the story of gal abdush uh written by this former idf intelligence. soldier uh and this scandal just brings us back to the unconfirmed story about the 40 beheaded babies which no mainstream media sources ever really investigated definitely as if these 40 babies have no parent. parents to tell us their stories, just like for example, the parents of abdush said that none of this that was mentioned in the new york times was actually uh true, it was all fiction, it was not a fact whatsoever, so how about other pieces like that, like the 40 babies or like mass rape or like uh for example the attack on the uh desert concert for that matter? now following up on what fuad was talking about in the fake news uh segment of the broadcast media, concerning... misrepresentation of aaron buschnell's self-amilation and in

support of the palestinian people, we have a peace by the washington post entitled aaron bushno was not a hero, self-imilation is not an active political protest we should celebrate. in this piece, ramesh puneru, a contributing columnist to the washington post, was animate on showing his discontentment that bushnell's active protest has earned him some post-mortem praise with activists calling him a hero and calling hself. a wake up call, so he was especially frustrated that the jewish voice for peace honored bushnel by calling his self-emilation a final act of solidarity. this piece also condemned cornel west, a progressive academic who's running for president in the us, for saying, we should never forget buschnel's courage. and it also condemns green party candidate jill stein for quoting bushnel and writing, this extraordinary sacrifice brings into greater focus the immense horror. that our government is committing in our name. ponaru also concludes in some opinion piece

that these economs are irresponsible, they are also false. wow, so this smarwa shows how immediately after bushnel's death, coverage purposely excluded the reason why he was protesting, and the fact that it was done to shed light on the complicity of the us government in the genocide waged on gaza by the zionist entity, and rather the coverage shifted to why people. should not continue to consider his act as protest but as suicide. which is definitely tells you lot about the people who support uh zionist israel and how their mentality when it's when the narrative doesn't serve them, their mentality goes directly into either calling people terrorists or calling them mentally ill. anyways, i want thank you very much miss julia qasim for telling us the latest about the digital mainstream media, especially about the hero aaron bush, now ladies and gents we move to social media, spose: whether

or not you agree with aaron bischnell's form of extreme protest or not, he managed with his last breath to speak up on behalf of palestinians facing extermination at the hands of a genocidal zionist regime that is being fully funded, supported and armed by the us government. aaron did this to make sure that his message was heard and heard it was on social media repeated by men supporters of palestine and denounced by many advocates of zionist israel's genocidal behavior against palestinians. here is sima itayim, our social media expert and editor at the cradle with more. there you go. thank you for having me. so aaron bushnell's extreme act of protest, the motive behind that was not only to draw attention to us complicity to the genocidal war in gaza, but to actually grab the attention of us media, and it's impossible to discuss his actions while ignoring his words. but that is precisely what the media attempted to do. we have a

tweet by the barracks live, on x saying aaron bushno, an active duty officer in the armed forces, setting himself on fire to protest his deployment to israel is very bad look for the us info war. the mainstream media is working over time for the pentagon to smear his name, never stop saying his name. hashtag aaron buschnel. wow, so they got it, they got it good and they got it. early that smering campaign is uh being basically pushed by the uh regime in the us and zinus israel as well and this further exposed us media in its bias and in its silence so we have another post on x by danny hifong at spirit of hoe who addressed this matter saying mainstream media want us to contemplate the mental health of aaron bushno while ignoring the fact that governments of israel in the us are committing a genocide in a concentration camp in the year 2024. that's the real sickness here. "i second what danny is saying, and it is horrific the way that they are trying to portray him as mentally ill, yeah, or just

unstable, because they they can't even make it case that he's mentally ill, you know, grew up in a religious household, has anarchist background, and what not just trying to tell the world that he's not saying, exactly. so we have also, as fuad mentioned earlier, uh, cnn handled the news of this extreme active protest surprisingly a more truthful and professional way than we. actually expected this time, so uh, there's a post on x by caitlyn johnstone, who quote tweeted a video of cnn's coverage of buschnell's act of protest saying he did it, forced this to happen, he did something so jarring and impactful that the mass media would be forced to report the raw facts about it, if they want to avoid internal conflict like cnn and nyt have been experiencing in recent weeks, he left them no choice. meanwhile, the social media campaign to honor aron bushnell's sacrifice on behalf of palestine is still sweeping social media

platforms all over the world. like this facebook post by sean king who's a new york times best selling author of make change, he's also co founder of grassroots law, and he happens to have follower base of 2.5 million, so he posted a photo of bushno and wrote aaron bushnel, the us air force veteran who gave his life to help stop the genocide of palestinians, has passed away. i want to honor a young man that was so disturbed by the genocide of palestinians that he set himself on fire yesterday at the israeli embassy in washington dc. instead of harming someone else, he made a choice that of course seems strange and disturbing to all of us, but i empathize with him. daily i grapple with just how ineffective we all are at stopping this, and sometimes i feel like my heart and soul and brain have been broken by all of this evil. it's hard to know what to do in this moment. please pray for his family and be encouraged by the sacrifice he made. well, definitely that shows lot how much support the extreme act of protest by aaron bushnell was received by many, not only in

the east where we the natives have a struggle against colonizers represented by the zinas israelis, but also in the... west, where the're in australia, the us or uh uh, for example europe for that matter, and people are seeing beyond what uh the mainstream media usually tries to portray as uh being a nonsensical, not facts, fake news, or even ment of the ill people, but i want to thank you very much uh for telling us uh the reacts of people on social media whether on x or on uh facebook uh sema, it's always a pleasure having you uh on board uh with us, now ladies and gents. we move to figures expos. now half the people who responded to national poll conducted by the university of massachusetts emirist in february believed that the zionist israeli entity is committing genocide against the palestinian people living in gaza according to the recently released pull results. now the poll which used a sample of

1064 us adults was split exactly in half on the question, is the israeli entity committing genocide against the palestinian people living in gaza? 50% said zinas israel was probably or definitely committing genocide, and 50% said zinast israel was probably or definitely not committing genocide. here is the full breakdown according to the poll: 18% believe zinus israel is definitely committing genocide, 32% believes zinus israel is probably committing genocide, and 24% believes zinus israel is probably not, not committing genocide, and 26% believes inus israel is definitely not committing genocide. now respondents also answered a question on their support for zionist israel's military operation in gaza since october 7 and about the 10 billion us dollars in military aid to zianist israel in support of their war on palestinians. now a

plurality of respondent supported the israeli entities military operation with 43% in support, 26% opposing and 32% said neither, but respondents were more evenly divided on the question of usaid, where 36% supported the aid to zinus israel and 35% opposed the aid with 29% undecided. now let us move to the most notable expose voices for this week. now as the world griples with bishnel's self emilation, many... took to social media to post their thoughts, many who support palestinians described him as a hero and pay tribute to him celebrating his act of extreme form of protest for its impact, primarily raising awareness for the palestinians plight and genocide. our first voice for tonight comes from instagram with hasanain jaffer who said he hoped to find more words to do aaron

justice. here is hasanain's voice. one of the last things aaron bushnel said before he started the fire with. that he didn't consider his action to be extreme because this is what our ruling classes have decided will be normal. this is really profound braming. he really understood the idea that racial capitalism relies on us accepting their narrative as the normal. somehow it's normal to witness an entire population of people being displaced and starving, whilst our response should be sitting in our fancy government chambers and deciding that ex-politician is worth voting for because they called for a temporary cease fire or a... humanitarian fors in the fighting, there is normal anymore, the ruling class desperately want us to return to their version of normal, so that we can continue participating and fueling their system. them and remain too exhaustive to continue questioning their narrative. an abnormal world requires abnormal responses, an extreme world requires extreme responses. you can

disagree with self-imilation as a form of protest, but you have to be consistent. the media was all over this when it was happening during the arab spring. you cannot disagree with the effectiveness, the selflessness of this sort of response, because what we are responding to is white phosphorus burning the skin off of. children playing with kitees, as aron reminded us with his final words, free palestine. now many social media users were furious at the western and zianist media for labeling aron as a mentally ill individual, instead of focusing on the reason he shows this form of extreme protest through self-emolation. blake lee bartley on tik tok refused to accept the smeriring campaign and replies by saying that maybe it's you who is mentally ill. here is: blake lee's voice from tiktok. to all the people that are smearing aaron bushnell and saying that he was mentally ill, maybe it's you. maybe it's the fact that you've become so disconnected from

your own humanity that you can continue to watch a live stream genocide for four months and feel nothing. people are already digging into his background trying to find any way they can to smear him. there is no evidence that he was mentally ill, but even if he was. calling him mentally ill because he decided to engage an extreme form of protest as our government. ignores us while they enable a genocide, tells me that you know nothing about mental illness. he knew exactly what he was doing. he wrote a will in which he said he wanted the remainder of his money to go to the palestinian children's fund. he said that he wanted his neighbor to keep his cat. if any of you saw the video, he was extremely calm and very clear about what he was doing as he was doing it. you're trying to smear him in death because it's easier than having to ask yourself what would drive a 25-year-old to do such an extreme action. now since aron was an active duty... member of the us air force, some us servicemen like tictocker at big bearded chief were sad to see one of their own self-imilate to support cause, but tik tokers like ried adil replied

to them in a very rational way. let us hear reid's voice. it's just sad that anyone feels they have to do that. you're absolutely right, it's sad that active us air force member had. to self-emulate in order to grant our attention and sympathy for the palestinian cause, because the us government continues to ignore our cause for a cease fire now. aaron bushnel did not commit suicide, aaron bushnel committed an act of extreme protest, he did not have a mental illness, he was clear in his intention, and it is consistent in appropriate for you and the media to spend story of mental illness. when aaron bush now does not have a history of that, nor you are deflecting rest and power air. now ladies and gents, with that we

conclude our expose for tonight right here on press tv. follow our handle at exposept on x, instagram, youtube and tiktok. stay tuned for more eye opening investigations on expose. the truth is just the revelation away. in this week's show we'll be asking why the archbishop of counterbury seems to be in thraw to zionist extremists. the church of england used to be referred to as the british conservative. party at prayer, but justin welby's leadership of the church has gone even further. he's positioned it as an adjunct to the genocidal zionist regime. christian zionism as a movement preceded

jewish zionism about at least 50 years. millions and millions of pounds over the last 10 or so years have gone to zionist organizations under the guise of doing counter extremism work. when i first heard that in this week's episode of irantech we're going to be going into a radiator manufacturing facility. i wasn't super excited at first, but now i have to say... i didn't know uh the surprising amount of nuance that goes into manufacturing these radiators, so join me as i venture deep into this facility in this week's episode.

sheikh talal abdulrahman shirim, a former prisoner in israeli regime prisons. dealing with the situation in palestine and talking to someone who understands and knows the zionist regime very well. freedom is priceless and must. the palestinian detainee suffers two pains. the first pain when his house is rated by the occupation's army. the second suffering that the prisoner will

endure begins when. he is placed in the army troops vehicle, we hope that the blood that was shed in gaza was not in vain and that they will achieve the freedom and preserve the dignity. the 12th round of the parliamentary elections were held in iran, have winds of change already started blowing. will the country have new parliament with new configuration and new priorities? these and more on this edition of iran today.

the headlines on press tv does more palestinians have fallen victim to the ongoing us israely genocide in gaza raising. the death toe from the aggression to nearly 31, the resistance move in hamas, emphasizes that israel is hiding all efforts by mediators to finalize a ceasefire agreement in the gazas rim. and yemen's anser law leader stresses that the naval operations in the red and the arabian seas will never stop unless a genocide and the siege on gaza comes to an end.
