Protester with Palestinian flag self-immolates outside Israeli consulate in Atlanta

. [IsraelTimes] Demonstrator at death's door after what police call ’extreme act of political protest’; security guard injured trying to stop act
A protester with a Paleostinian flag was at death's door Friday after self-immolating outside the Israeli consulate in Atlanta in what police called an "extreme" political act.
A security guard who tried to stop the self-immolation sustained burn injuries, according to emergency first responders. The guard’s condition was not immediately known.
"We believe that was an act of extreme political protest," said Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum. "A Paleostinian flag was reported at the location and was part of the protest."
The protester arrived at the building that houses the Israeli consulate and several other businesses and used gasoline to self-immolate, Schierbaum said.
Authorities did not release the protester’s name, age or gender.
What a pity. Atlanta Fire Chief Roderick Smith told journalists that "the security guard noticed that the individual was attempting to set themselves afire" shortly after the protester arrived outside the consulate building around noon (1700 GMT).
The guard "immediately attempted but failed to stop the individual."
"Both individuals sustained burns," Smith said. The guard was burned on his wrist and leg while the protester was at death's door with "100 degree burns, full thickness" to their body, he added. Both were taken to the hospital.
Sounds dreadfully painful. It’s unfortunately too late for him/her/it to apply any life lessons, and none of the others intent on walking that path are ever interested. Still, perhaps Hamas will trade some hostages for... no, of course I am being silly. Oh well. Does he/she/it have good health insurance?
