"DC Police said its investigating a shooting across the street from the FBI's Washington Field Office, which is located near the museum. The Israeli embassy is working with law enforcement.

The Israeli ambassador was not involved in the incident and was not at the location when the shooting happened, an embassy spokesperson told CNN.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a post on social media that she and acting US Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro have arrived to the scene of the shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum."

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.

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.

So. You're saying, Chicago native Elias Rodriguez, was in DC, and killed two Israeli Embassy staff members, near the Capital Jewish Museum, for Palestinians.

Why? What were his motives?

Why that location? A museum? If you're looking to kill Jews, why not a synagogue?

How did he know who they were? If he didn't, then he just killed two random people hoping they were pro Israel, or Jewish. If he did, then why would he kill peace advocates?

Also. The people he killed happened to be peace advocates? How coincidental.

What's the scenario in your mind? Immigrant and Chicago native, Elias Rodriguez, unable to find any Jews or pro Israel people to kill anywhere else, scouted out the Israeli Embassy, followed these two specific people to a Jewish museum and killed them, only to find out, they were peace advocates who were trying to fight for the same cause he was.

...A Chicago-born man arrested as the lone suspect in the fatal shooting of two Israeli embassy employees in Washington was charged on Thursday in federal court with two counts of first-degree murder in a killing widely condemned as an act of antisemitism.

Elias Rodriguez, 31, is accused of opening fire on a group of people on Wednesday night as they left an event for young professionals and diplomats hosted by the American Jewish Committee, an advocacy group that fights antisemitism and supports Israel.

Rodriguez told police on the scene, "I did it for Palestine, I did it for Gaza," according to the charging documents. Witnesses recounted hearing him chant, "Free Palestine" after he was taken into custody.

In addition to two counts of first-degree murder, Rodriguez was charged in a six-page criminal complaint with murder of foreign officials, causing death with a firearm and discharging a firearm in a crime of violence.

Interim U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, newly appointed by President Donald Trump as the top federal prosecutor in Washington, said at a news briefing the complaint against Rodriguez constitutes a "death penalty-eligible case."

"We are going to continue to investigate this as a hate crime and as a crime of terrorism," Pirro told reporters.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said earlier that the suspect was believed to have acted alone.

At his first appearance in court on Thursday, the suspect waived his right to a detention hearing, and a preliminary hearing in the case was set for June 18.

Rodriguez said little during the proceeding except to answer, "I do" to questions from a federal magistrate judge about whether he understood his rights. ...

Seems like he had plenty of options, including the Israeli Embassy, where he could have shot people.

Going to a museum, to kill two people who turned out to be Israelis, who coincidentally happened to be peace activists, coincidentally (of course),screams of a set up.

If it wasn't a set up. He either shot two random people who turned out to be Israeli peace activists, or he shot two people he knew were peace activists because he wants to war to continue.

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?

The Israeli Nakba against Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank have increased anti-Israeli and antisemitic attacks globally (as well as Islamophobic assaults). Source: The Irish Times

In essence, Benjamin Netanyahu put a target on the back of Jews worldwide, whether they are Sephardic or Ashkenazi, Labor or Likud, innocent peace activists or virulent Islamophobes. This is more blood on the hands of the "Crime Minister" of Israel.

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.

Two more deaths at the hands of the GOP/NRA gun humpers club.

Surprised much?

Clown is the one who pushed the narrative about Trump's first assassination attempt. He believes Trump and Co. had two people murdered in Pa that day to seal up a photo op.

The looney left is becoming more unhinged.

To be fair, I believe that poster claims 9/11 didn't happen. Cause jet fuel can't melt steel beams, or something. Completely oblivious to what even warming metal does to its strength. Something that can be tested at home simply by squashing two tin cans, one that was first heated by being filled with hot water, and one that was not.

Flatearther levels of cognitive ability with that one.

" the narrative about Trump's first assassination attempt."

You mean the one where an ear magically grew back, doctors never had a press conference, and the secret service violated safety protocols?

Nah, nothing strange about that ... .
