The attack occurred during a reception hosted by the American Jewish Committee’s DC Young Professional Board.

According to witnesses, a man entered the museum shortly after the shooting, wearing a keffiyeh and shouting “Free Palestine” before being removed by police.

“Removed”?
Not killed?

It says AFTER the shooting. You're still supposed to apprehend suspects if you can.

Do you have an actual source for this? Or is it just twitter rumor? The New York Times and CNN don't say this.

Press conference:
Pamela Smith, Chief of Police for the Metropolitan Police Department: “The suspect chanted, ‘Free, Free Palestine’ while in custody. The suspect has been tentatively identified as 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, Illinois.”

Everything changes tomorrow.

Agree that this is terror at home and could frankly now happen anywhere in the US. Bc you “look Jewish”? Right? People have been militarized and radicalized by fundamentalism. There’s no reasoning with them and it’s been tacitly condoned by too many in the name of “speech”.

It all stops now. Zero tolerance for ANY antisemitic behavior.

This will be a turning point.

This sounds a little suspicious. I sincerely hope this is not just another example of a false flag type attack like the one where Israel bombed its own London Embassy and blamed innocent Palestinians for it.

What are you talking about? People get shot in America all the time. People get shot in DC all the time.

This is an awful incident...and particularly to kill diplomats there will be repercussions. But this isn't going to represent a sea change for violence in America due to religion, race or nationality.
