Two Israeli embassy workers were brutally murdered last night in Washington, D.C. A radical protester opened fire as they left the Capital Jewish Museum after an event celebrating young diplomats. The victims—Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim—were planning to get engaged, making this attack even more heartbreaking.
The killer shouted “Free Palestine” while being arrested, exposing the antisemitic hate driving this violence. Eyewitnesses say the shooter targeted the couple specifically because they worked for Israel’s embassy. This wasn’t random crime—it was deliberate terrorism against our closest Middle East ally.
President Trump called the killings “horrible” and demanded stronger action against antisemitism. Meanwhile, liberal leaders offered weak statements about “unity” while refusing to name the radical ideologies behind the attack. Their silence emboldens terrorists who hate America and Israel.
The terrorist had ties to far-left extremist groups, according to law enforcement sources. These same groups have been allowed to grow unchecked under soft-on-crime policies. Now innocent lives are lost because woke politicians care more about political correctness than protecting citizens.
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser claimed “we will not tolerate antisemitism,” but her city has slashed police funding and released violent criminals early. This tragedy proves Democrat-run cities aren’t safe for Jews or anyone else. Real leadership means backing our police, not coddling radicals.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed federal agencies are investigating. We need tough prosecutors like Jeanine Pirro—not activist judges—handling this case. Every radical who cheers this violence must face maximum penalties under the law.
The victims attended an event about solving humanitarian crises, yet they became targets of Palestinian extremism. This shows how radical hate corrupts even noble efforts. America must stand firmly with Israel and stop funding groups linked to terrorism.
This attack is what happens when weak leaders let antisemitism fester in schools and streets. Patriots must demand secure borders, strong police, and zero tolerance for anti-Israel rhetoric. Our nation’s survival depends on crushing this evil—not apologizing for it.
