Just premising this with the fact that Aaron Bushnells self immolation was felt by all palestinians in Palestine and in the diaspora because the idea that someone so deeply upset by what he saw happening to Palestinians at the "hands of their colonizers" decided to self immolate in front of the israeli embassy was a shocking act of solidarity. And that being said this extraordinary act of revolutionary suicide is exactly how you should perceive palestinian resistance who go out and battle one of the most funded armies in the world just so one day palestinians can be free of this occupation and colonial oppressor. Our resistance are not "crazy fundamentalists" they are occupied people who have bore the scars the occupation gives them and woke up and said they will not take the chains binding them anymore. Right of arms is the right of any anti colonial movement and we can't imagine the level of faith they must have in a future free palestine to battle million dollar tanks and drones and soldiers equipped with the latest weaponry

Black Jack by Osamu Tezuka was first serialized November 19th, 1973 in the Weekly Shonen Champion. It was supposed to be a short-lived little last hurrah for Tezuka, but ended up running for 10 more years and becoming one of the best selling manga of all time.
I am urging you now, fans of Black Jack, Tezuka, and everyone else reading this to please donate to the Palestinian Red Crescent.
The manga follows the titular character, Black Jack, a Byronic figure and the world's best surgeon - who happens to be unlicensed. The manga is largely episodic, and each episode often offers a lesson or leaves the viewer with a moral question. Others shed more light on Black Jack's past and personality.
Black Jack is known for charging exorbitant fees, often asking his clients how much they're willing to pay for their life, their health, and that of their loved ones. He uses some of this money to fund his revenge on those who allowed for his mother to be killed by unexploded ordinance, and for himself to be gravely injured in the same blast.
As of November 2023, fifty years later, more than twice the tonnage of what was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, has fallen on Gaza, Palestine, at the hands of Israel, and the USA, and all the world governments who lie silent and complicit. There have been direct attacks on hospitals, including the now infamous raid on Al-Shifa hospital, which resulted in the death of premature babies, among many others.
I am urging you now, fans of Black Jack, Tezuka, and everyone else reading this to please donate to the Palestinian Red Crescent, whose doctors, EMTs, and other staff put their lives on the line every single day, often themselves becoming martyrs in this historic struggle. Thank you.
