The antisemitic hate that has engulfed college campuses and spilled into city streets across the United States and abroad has erupted into cold blooded murder. Elias Rodriguez, a 30-year-old pro-Hamas supporter from Chicago, allegedly shot to death two Israeli Embassy employees who were leaving a reception on May 21st at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. The victims were Yaron Lischinsky, a German-Israeli diplomat, and Sarah Milgrim, a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen working in cultural diplomacy and public engagement for the embassy. They were both dedicated to peace-building and were expecting to get formally engaged in Jerusalem in just a few days.
After the fatal shootings, Rodriguez entered the museum, pulled out a kaffiyeh, and said, “I did it. I did this for Gaza.” And then he started shouting “Free, Free Palestine!” He is being held in federal custody awaiting formal charges of first-degree murder and possibly of a federal hate crime.
The Israeli Embassy to the U.S. said in a statement: “Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues. They were in the prime of their lives.” The statement added that “a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC.”
President Trump posted on his Truth Social website: “These horrible D.C. killings, based obviously on antisemitism, must end, NOW!”
Elias Rodriguez is no stranger to leftwing extremism. The New York Post reported, for example, that Mr. Rodriguez was “once linked to the Party for Socialism and Liberation — a far-left group that regularly posts anti-Israel rhetoric on social media.” This radical group quickly distanced itself from the D.C. slaughters, however. Mr. Rodriguez has also been involved with the Black Lives Matter movement and participated several years ago in demonstrations organized by such leftwing organizations as the People’s Congress of Resistance and ANSWER Chicago.
Now it appears that Mr. Rodriguez has moved from rowdy demonstrations to committing a lethal act of domestic terrorism. The violent antisemitic demonstrations in support of Hamas since Hamas’s massacre and abduction of thousands of Jews from Israel on October 7, 2023 have set the stage for Rodriguez’s alleged dual murders in front of the Capital Jewish Museum.
A manifesto under the name of Elias Rodriguez was posted on social media just hours before the shootings under the heading “Escalate For Gaza, Bring The War Home.” It purported to justify “armed action” to accompany “nonviolent protest.”
If convicted of first-degree murder as a hate crime, Elias Rodriguez will deserve the death penalty, or at minimum life imprisonment with no chance of parole.
Rodriguez from Chicago. Obama’s boy.
with the ambiguous message the democrats and their brownshirts were propagating it was only a matter of time before they went about murdering , following in the footsteps of antifa and blm . unfortunately the aforementioned terror groups got away with their anarchy thanks to cackleoharris and the democrat illegal legal machine . this is what happens when marxists attempt to destroy your country . it wont stop with the death of this jewish couple as the democrats want the jews to not exist in their homeland . they nearly achieved their wish with dementia joe and obamas third term . meanwhile america is asleep at the wheel while muslims infiltrate every area of the u.s. having barbarians inside the gates . it is now too late to reverse what your representatives in congress have done . it was commonly called treason and no one will go to jail .
It’s not about Marxism… it’s all about Islamofascism…
The spreading of satanic islam as the Antichrist Beast System…
Marxism is a smoke screen… communism is dead… a failure…
The BBC documentary Science and the Nazis contended the Nazis were helped into power by the Eugenic movement which was popular with the scientific elite of the time all over the world. However most of the ‘scientists’ quoted were the likes of Gorge Bernard Shaw a philosopher and educator in England. I think a better name would be Education and the Nazis with the Nazis including Hitler being educated into power by the global education system, and the Germany merely being the most extreme example. This is why it is most important to pay attention to what is being taught in the world’s socialist-left controlled schools.
Firing squad would be appropriate. Or hanging.
“When, not if, Jihad comes to America, whose side will millions of Americans be on?” SC
“FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA!” Calling for the elimination of all Jews, including here.
The COM-LEFT is cheering these two Israeli deaths and now turning Rodriguez into a hero.
DEBBIE WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ, AOC, OMAR are outraged? They, and their Party, BRED THESE PSYCHOTICS! Did they condemn the looting, arson, and attacking police by BLM “peaceful protesters?” I can’t find one Democrat that did, so were they afraid to or did they support them? Not even the Democrats in those looted and burned out cities?
MOB RULE aided by the ACLU who protests their Right to destroy and attack! Now the ACLU protecting every ILLEGAL, including murdering gangs and terrorists…. SO WHO IS REALLY THE ENEMY WITHIN?
