I've created a torrent for the video if anyone wants to help seed. His sacrifice in bringing attention to the US-sponsored genocide in Palestine must not be forgotten.

I'm currently sitting behind closed ports and cannot find any peers when I try to torrent it. I'll try again at home tomorrow shy

Don't bother seeding it, it's a censored version. I don't know if the person who made the torrent added the blur or not, but it seems pointless to preserve it like this.
