self immolation is a shit way to go and while efficacy of action is probably not the priority of someone committing suicide, i'm not aware of individual actions like this ever amounting to much.
It would have been significantly more effective for him to defect and go help Palestinians resist the IOF. Especially since he already had military knowledge.
I seriously doubt this is an actual option he could have taken.
yeah defecting seems logistically challenging, plus i assume a language barrier, and i probably wouldn't trust yankees if i were anyone else.
