Armed Forces Press claims the airman who set himself on fire shouting, “Free Palestine,” was an anarchist who spied on Americans for the NSA. Aaron Bushnell set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy on Sunday, and he allegedly live-streamed his suicide.
It is a tragedy for the family and friends he left behind, but how did he make it to the NSA?
He was in the 531st Intelligence Support Squadron at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas.
He was an anarchist in a strict religious community, the Community of Jesus church, where his parents still live, and which is described by some as a cult. It doesn’t matter the sect he was brought up in, and they are major supporters of Israel. A psychologist would have to analyze this to know the source and depth of his mental issues.
According to The Washington Post, he was in a socialist group and spoke to friends on his last day. One told the Washington Post, “He knows that he has privilege as a white man and a member of the military.” All his friends said they didn’t think he would do something like this. Friends told the Post they did discuss their distaste for the Israel-Gaza war.
It wouldn’t have been hard for the NSA to find out if he was mentally fit and not give him top security clearance.
AFP author John Mills said Mr. Bushnell worked in an intelligence division providing NSA support for the Department of Homeland Security. Mills said his job was looking through Americans’ emails and social media.
This is what happens when you weaponize the government.
Ret. Col. Mills writes, “DHS CISA, the FBI, and State Department’s Global Engagement Center (GEC) are out of control and targeting, silencing, and censoring Americans. And where do they get much of this information? NSA, who can only conduct this type of mass surveillance if operating in support and at the direction of Law Enforcement agencies like DHS CISA, FBI, and apparently the GEC.”
This disturbed man had among the highest security clearances. As Ret. Col. Mills said, “Meanwhile, anyone who is in one or more of the following categories is finding it difficult to join or make it through the vetting process: White, Male, Judeo-Christian, Heterosexual, of the belief that there are biological Males and Females, MAGA, borders should be secure, or that a traditional family is the foundation of a civil society. That’s about 90% of society.”

There is nothing in this article to support the assertion that this individual had a high security clearance. The number of people who support the alphabet agencies include mailroom personnel, commo personnel, etc, none who have very high clearances.
Links don’t mean anything especially since this man was an anarchist which leads one to ask how could a man who cheered the death of American soldiers and our enemies, how could such a man and I use the term loosely, have had a clearance, and realize that there are many levels involved, but how could he have retained even the lowest?
I posited this demonstrated the bankruptcy our military has sunk to. It is filled with the lowest of the low since Obama has purged it and Brandon has continued Obama’s work.
Those that remain are merely job’s worth.
Well, at least he didn’t ki ll others first. Secrets went up in smoke at his passing.
Yeah secrets like the date and time Brandon would depart the WH to put in an appearance in Delaware. LOL.
No evidence that he was gay, no evidence that he was not gay.?. But that is a textbook gay thing. Setting one’s self on fire. Suspicions are abounding around on the internet that he was gay.
Bet he was as queer as a four dollar bill.
And with undocumented ILLEGAL aliens eligible for mil;tary service….
