HMM 12 - 18 - 23 Chris Hedges: "The Genocide in Gaza"

In this heart-wrenching show, we discuss Aaron Bushnell's self-immolation or as Chris Hedges characterizes it, his divine violence.  We use several clips to explain better and characterize his sacrifice, including Caitlyn Johnstone and Ann Wright.  We also discuss mainstream media's predictable failure in reporting on Aaron.  We hear from veterans during vigils and tributes remembering and honoring Aaron.  We finish up with Al Jazeera's take on Biden's food drop.  Joe Cocker sings our tribute to Aaron.
