Two staff members at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, were killed Wednesday night near the Capital Jewish Museum, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said.

“Two Israeli Embassy staff were senselessly killed tonight near the Jewish Museum in Washington DC,” Noem said in a post on X. “We are actively investigating and working to get more information to share.”

According to Jewish Breaking News:
According to D.C. law enforcement sources, the gunman was wearing a keffiyeh and shouted “Free Palestine!” before opening fire on the victims. The shooting occurred in a high-security area near the FBI’s field office and the U.S. Attorney’s Office, sparking an immediate and coordinated federal response.

Authorities have not publicly confirmed the names of the deceased, but officials indicate that one of the victims was a staff member of the Israeli embassy. The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force has taken over the investigation, and a person of interest is currently being detained and questioned.

 

what a garbage post the uptake in antisemitism by far predates the attack on October 7 it goes back further than that yahoo and it’s always been there. Nice job trying to explain it away in such a simple, almost unintelligent way

your wishes of prayers to the families you could take that shove that up your ass you are exactly the antisemite. Everyone talks about

 

Whether this was truly an anti-semitic attack or not, we can all speculate. However, what we can derive from this is slogans like "Globalize the Intifada" have actual impact on people. When you yell things like that, incidents like this are bound to happen.

I saw somewhere he was some extreme leftist Marxist out of Chicago and I don't know if there's any other affiliations or not, but it wouldn't be be too surprising, as we've seen those groups march alongside the pro-Palestinian protests.

 

This is a pretty awful post on many levels, to be honest. Two wrongs, don't make a right.

 

Anybody who thinks antisemistism is primarily a leftist ideology rather than something that's been pervasive in the West (and beyond) for centuries is not speaking in good faith.

 

You ********ing serious? Have you read who the victims were and what they were working on. A direct attack on the Zionist regime? Get the ******** out of here with that nonsense. Here I thought you were a somewhat reasonable poster.

Yoni Kalin and Katie Kalisher were inside the museum when they heard gunshots and a man came inside looking distressed, they said. Kalin said people came to the man’s aid and brought him water, thinking he needed help, without realizing he was the suspect. When police arrived, he pulled out a red keffiyeh and repeatedly yelled, “Free Palestine,’” Kalin said.

“This event was about humanitarian aid,” Kalin said. “How can we actually help both the people in Gaza and the people in Israel? How can we bring together Muslims and Jews and Christians to work together to actually help innocent people? And then here he is just murdering two people in cold blood.”

Among the victims was Yaron Lishansky, of blessed memory, a dedicated Research Assistant for Middle East and North Africa Affairs in the Political Department of the Israeli Embassy.
Yaron was an esteemed alumnus of Reichman University, where he earned his Master’s degree in Government, Diplomacy, and Strategy. He also held a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations and Asian Studies from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Having made Aliyah from Germany at the age of 16, Yaron exemplified a deep commitment to the values of public service and the Jewish people. His life was tragically cut short in a vile antisemitic attack, together with his beloved partner, Sarah Milgram, to whom he had planned to propose in the coming week.

 

Never heard you say a single peep about all the anti-semitism Elon has allowed to propagate on Twitter .

 

While there have always been fringe elements on the Marxist side, it's the same with the hard right extremists. They just go about it in different ways and say different things, but really come from the same hatred.

 

Never heard you say a single peep about all the anti Christian spouted on big soccer either. I admit I can be wrong but I don’t recall.
