Politico considered the death of soldier Aaron Bushnell as the culmination of the increasing wave of dissatisfaction with the White House's policy regarding Gaza.

The newspaper confirmed that "the self-immolation is an escalation of the anger from within the government, which until now manifested itself in resignations and hastily called group meetings."

The news website expressed the ruling establishment's fear that the Bushnell incident would "lead those who work in the administration or are members of the services to become more outspoken."

Letter in protest of Biden's policy in Gaza

Administrative personnel within Biden's administration penned a protest note to him, expressing concerns about his policies in the Gaza Strip. They urged the White House to advocate for a ceasefire in Gaza.

In the letter, staffers wrote that "to end one’s life in the most violent and severe way is a stark warning for our nation,” calling on the White House to push for a ceasefire in Gaza. “May his sacrifice be a haunting reminder for those who refuse to change course.”

On Monday, the Palestinian Resistance Movement, Hamas, said that the Biden administration bears full responsibility for the death of American pilot Aaron Bushnell "due to its support for the Nazi Zionist entity in its genocide".
