So are you calling for another 10 years, or learning from mistakes? I'm not sure what you are arguing for here. Gaza won't last that long

I'm refuting the general idea here that a person commiting suicide changed the world for the better. Especially when it was someone concerned about what was going on. Who might have gone on to actually help.

Regardless of the where/when. A concerned person choosing suicide as their means of protest only takes away their ability to bring about change.
