Hi Corky:
This was a curious operational venue for a supposedly antisemitic attack when there are at least a dozen synagogues in Wash DC. The alleged perpetrator could have easily snuffed out several vulnerable victims at these places of worship, including a rabbi, if he hated Jews: www.mavensearch.com
The rightwing trolls will jump all over this act of public vengeance against Israel, AIPAC gets another talking point, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) will get a taxpayer funded bodyguard detail, the IDF will be extra vicious in Gaza tomorrow, the Settlers will burn down a Palestinian house or two in the West Bank (Thursday evening is usually when the Settlers run amok), and Pam Bondi will seek the death penalty for the new 'Luigi Mangione'.
In effect, Benjamin Netanyahu's Nakba put a target on the back of Jews worldwide, whether they are Sephardic or Ashkenazi, Labor or Likud, innocent peace activists or virulent Islamophobes, atheists or deeply pious. This is simply more blood on Netanyahu's hands.
An international arrest warrant issued by the ICC for war crimes and crimes against humanity remains active for Benjamin Netanyahu. An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Hamas-lover killed a civilian Christian couple about to be engaged. That's the Palestinians we all know and love.
"Yaron Lischinsky was preparing to propose to his girlfriend Sarah Milgrim. He had just bought an engagement ring, and planned to ask on a trip to Jerusalem next week.
But on Wednesday night in Washington, they were shot dead by a man who shouted "free Palestine" outside the Capital Jewish Museum as they left an event billed by organisers as a discussion of the Gaza crisis that aimed to "turn pain into purpose".
Friends told the BBC that Mr Lischinsky was a Christian with great belief in Israel."

I did it for Gaza': Who is Elias Rodriguez, activist who murdered two Israelis?
The man who killed two Israeli embassy staff members outside the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, on Wednesday night has been an active member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a far-left, Marxist, pro-Palestine group.
Chicago native Elias Rodriguez, 30, held a red keffiyeh and shouted, "Free, free Palestine,"
In 2017, Rodriguez attended a protest in honor of the anniversary of the death of Laquan McDonald, a 17-year-old boy who was fatally shot by a Chicago police officer.
"The wealth that Amazon has brought to Seattle has not been shared with its Black residents," Rodriguez told Liberation magazine at the time.
On Thursday, PSL posted an "anti-genocide pledge" on social media.

Sounds like he would fit right in with Chickens for KFC Queers for Palestine. Right up until they eliminated his woke butt for blasphemy.
Capital Jewish Museum shooting suspect killed 2 for Gaza.' His victims were peace advocates.
The man who allegedly walked up to two Israeli embassy staffers and shot them dead Wednesday night reportedly told eyewitnesses he "did it for Gaza."
But the event those staffers had just left at the Capital Jewish Museum highlighted an organization that supplied aid to Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war. And his victims had made peace-building central to their work.

Good job Palestinians! Really keeping your eye on the ball! Some Grade-A strategery amongst the intellectual giants who thought October 7th would be a good idea.
"Some Grade-A strategery amongst the intellectual giants who thought October 7th would be a good idea."
Ocy 7 was a diplomatic success for Hamas, according to the story you posted earlier today:
WSJ: Hamas Did Oct 7 Atrocities to Stop Israel-Saudi Peace
Top leaders of Palestinian Islamist group Hamas launched their Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel aiming to torpedo peace negotiations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, according to minutes of a high-level meeting in Gaza that Israel's military said it discovered in a tunnel beneath the enclave. Days before the assault that left nearly 1,200 dead, Yahya Sinwar, Hamas's Gaza chief, told fellow militants that an "extraordinary act" was required to derail the normalization talks that he said risked marginalizing the Palestinian cause, the document, reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, said.

#2 aged like unpasteurized goats milk. Normally saying something that laughably stupid would make all but the most pathetic know-nothings slink away in shame. But the pro-Hamas internet jihadists are immune to embarrassment.

C0RI0LANUS is in a league of his own when it comes to denying and excusing Muslim atrocities.
Not too long ago, he claimed with a straight face that Muslims had never embarked on wars of foreign aggression. One of the most warlike religions to have ever existed. As if they were conjured on earth controlling 20% of its land where nonbelievers feared to tread.
In India, Muslim rulers insisted on murdering 100,000 Hindus a year, whether they needed it or not. www.sikhnet.com
Straight up delusional Islamist nonsense flows from his Hamas-lips to your ears.

As if America isn't violent enough with someone being killed by a firearm every eleven minutes in the US, the GOP and the Trumpf junta have made access to machine guns and silencers easier. Terrific. We'll have to let the dust settle on this incident because the rightwing smoke screens are already up with the AIPAC talking point that any offense or crime against Israelis is antisemitism. Uh-huh. This young man could have killed any number of victims outside a temple if he was a Jew hater. The Israeli Consulate-General in Chicago is located in Suite 3100, 500 West Madison. Why travel from Chicago to Washington DC for this?

"Thank you AIPAC and American taxpayer for heartlessly funding all of our misery, anguish, death, devastation, hunger, poverty, and destruction all of these years.
Signed,
The People of Palestine
PS: What did we ever do to you?"
US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is expert at banging the drums of the proletariat here in the US, but ensures the smooth, uninterrupted flow of American taxpayer funds go to Israel every year, like a closet-Likudnik. When Schumer capitulated on the GOP budget in mid-March 2025, he rendered a tortured explanation full of holes that "things would be worse in America with a government shutdown." But Schumer did not fool US Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT), AOC from NYC, David Hogg, and antiwar progressives; hence AOC's insurgency to oust "Senator AIPAC" in a primary: external-content.duckduckgo.com
#101: Hi Hamburglar. Both words work, thank you. But I chose "insurgency" because that's how the dinosaurs-- protectors of the status quo, the NRA, and AIPAC-- see her and the other progressives in the DNC-- a threat to their cozy structure which must be stamped out, like an insurgency: www.gannett-cdn.com
