How would the shooter possibly have known that he had served in the IDF? People are really searching for ways to justify this murder. I think it's hard to argue seriously that killing an American Jewish woman and her German Israeli Christian boyfriend outside a D.C. museum to the history of Jews in the Washington area is a legitimate and carefully walled-off expression of anti-Israeli political sentiment. Even if he specifically intended to shoot these people as opposed to just happened to shoot whoever he first encountered outside the museum.


If he did serve in the IDF, then it begs the question how much death and terror was conducted during his service . Do people mourn the deaths of former Hamas members killed in the same way?


Did he serve in the IDF? How did the shooter know that? Did the shooter even know he was Israeli?

Neither are Christian. The guy was Israeli. Just someone stirring up falsehoods by posting that.


The Israeli guy is Christian, with a Jewish father. No one is stirring up falsehoods.

Not killed?


What, you think the police should have shot him on the spot? He didn't have the gun anymore and he cooperated with them when they arrived.

Did Mr. Rodriguez take captagon before the shooting like the October 7th terrorists?

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.


Did everything change "tomorrow" when three Palestinian-American 20-year olds were shot in Burlington, Vermont? That happened last year and I don't see any zero tolerance for anti-Muslim behavior.

It's awful that people were shot in America, but it happens all the time in a society that for some reason prioritizes guns over people.

+1 where was the "thin red line" when the little boy was murdered by an anti-Muslim man.

Hate begets hate. Violence begets violence.

if you read up on that story they knew each other and were even friends . Sounds like the killer was a nut. Also nobody is celebrating the killer in that story

That's right.. when a white anti-muslim kills a little boy, it's "mental illness". When a 30 year old man with a Hispanic name kills two Jewish adults it's terrorism.


How progressive of you to focus on race.

The salient difference is actually that last night’s shooter was a political activist/extremist, whereas the Chicago shooter had no history of political activism.

In other words, last night’s shooter was part of the movement and the far left is as responsible for him as Trump is for J6.

Can’t make the same claim about the Chicago shooter.

Wow you antisemites are vile


DP, can you please explain the antisemitism in this post? Equating Hamas and the IDF is not antisemitic

Ilhan Omar was asked about the murder and her response was “I’m going to go for now”

From his purported manifesto:

I have no trouble believing the estimates that put the toll at 100,000 or more. More have been murdered since March of this year than in "Protective Edge" and "Cast Lead" put together. What more at this point can one say about the proportion of mangled and burned and exploded human beings whom were children. We who let this happen will never deserve the Palestinians' forgiveness. They've let us know as much.

Nonviolent protest in the opening weeks of the genocide seemed to signal some sort of turning point. Never before had so many tens of thousands joined the Palestinians in the streets across the West. Never before had so many American politicians been forced to concede that, rhetorically at least, the Palestinians were human beings, too. But thus far the rhetoric has not amounted to much. The Israelis themselves boast about their own shock at the free hand the Americans have given them to exterminate the Palestinians. Public opinion has shifted against the genocidal apartheid state, and the American government has simply shrugged, they'll do without public opinion then, criminalize it where they can, suffocate it with bland reassurances that they're doing all they can to restrain Israel where it cannot criminalize protest outright.

Correct - let’s direct our rage at you and yours. Your racism and hate free exactly no one.

You're not going to get a fair response. However logical or reasonable a question is, if it upsets someone, they can just yell "antisemitic" and move on.

Can you provide an example of what would be antisemitic in your eyes?

Thanks for the twitter link, because your summary is confusing.

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.
