Not just another suicide
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohamed_Bouazizi
The suicide or however you like to describe it of Bouaziz lit the touch paper for the Arab Spring.
Arguably a more seminal event than the shooting of Bin Laden and from a mental health perspective cries out for some professional perspective. Only some mentally ill people kill themselves and even fewer oppressed people kill themselves. There is something to be learned about the psychology of events like this. Not that I know what that is.

You don't have to be mentally ill to kill yourself. Even if one is mentally ill, the suicide may have not been due to the mental illness. Someone dying by their own hand could also be accidental and not an intended suicide.

Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Thats my take on it. These acts are a sort of Altruism.
