[Help us preserve David’s legacy: HERE.]
On a quiet May evening in Washington, D.C., two Israeli embassy workers were gunned down outside the Capital Jewish Museum. They weren’t soldiers. They weren’t “occupiers.” They were a couple—Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim—who had just left a humanitarian event. They were planning to get engaged.
Instead, they were executed in cold blood on American soil.
The shooter? A 30-year-old named Elias Rodriguez, wrapped in a red keffiyeh and screaming “Free, free Palestine” as he opened fire. Not in Gaza. Not in Tehran. Right here—in the heart of the United States capital.
This wasn’t some random act of violence. It was a political assassination. A hate crime. And a terrorist attack fueled by a narrative the West keeps feeding.
Rodriguez wasn’t a mentally ill loner. He had a trail:
- He marched in BLM protests.
- He dabbled in radical activism with the Party for Socialism and Liberation—the same group that has called for “Intifada” in the U.S.
- And like so many today, he was infected with the delusion that terrorism is resistance—and murder is justice when the target is Israeli.
And where is the Left now?
Silent. Absent. Complicit.
There’s no “official” outraged press conference. No “sanctioned-from-above” candlelight vigil. No screaming about gun control or the need to “do something.” Because the shooter doesn’t fit the establishment’s narrative—and the victims don’t serve its agenda. The same people who claim to care about “hate crimes” are mute when Jews are hunted down and killed. The same pundits who flood the airwaves over school shootings won’t say a word when it’s a keffiyeh-clad terrorist pulling the trigger.
They don’t even pretend to care anymore.
Because in their twisted ideology, the dead Israelis had it coming—and the shooter was just “resisting.” That’s how sick it’s become – and always was – when it comes to Islamic terror.
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil,
who put darkness for light and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.”
— Isaiah 5:20
This is about Gaza, but it’s also not just about Gaza. It’s about the normalization of Jew-hatred wrapped in social justice slogans and progressive hashtags. It’s about what happens when the keffiyeh becomes a costume for violence, and “Free Palestine” becomes a greenlight for bloodshed.
It’s about the Unholy Alliance between the Left and Jihad.
“I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
— Genesis 12:3
The West used to know this. Now it funds, platforms, and protects those who curse.
Two lives stolen. On American soil. By a man shouting the slogans your children see on TikTok and your neighbors fly on their porch.
This is where we are.
What just happened in D.C. wasn’t just a crime scene. It was a warning shot—a visible crack in the spiritual and moral foundation of the West.
America was built on Judeo-Christian values—truth, justice, the sanctity of life, and the belief that evil must be confronted, not excused. That foundation is being abandoned. And in its place, we’re watching a culture emerge that will excuse terrorism if it’s wrapped in the right hashtags.
How many more embassies need blood on their steps before we say enough?
How many more Jewish lives must be sacrificed on the altar of political correctness?
The silence of the Church in the face of rising antisemitism is damning.
The indifference of the American press is complicity.
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.”
— Psalm 122:6
We are called to stand—not with politicians, not with mobs, but with truth.
And truth is this:
Terrorism is not resistance.
Murder is not justice.
And evil, no matter how loudly it screams “Free Palestine,” is still evil.
