After Aaron Bushnell’s self-immolation, a Pentagon witch hunt looms

US Airman Aaron Bushnell's self-immolation in protest of the US support for Israel's genocide in Gaza has raised questions from some about the politics of soldiers in the US military. Bushnell's self-avowed anarchist views have become an object of particular scrutiny, raising the possibility of Pentagon surveillance and investigations into left-leaning troops. Ken Klippenstein joins The Real News to discuss the political storm brewing in the wake of Bushnell's act of protest and the ramifications it could have on soldiers and civilians alike.
