Two Israeli embassy staff were shot and killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., around 9:10 p.m. on Wednesday night (5/21/2025) by 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, who is now in custody. He was shouting “Free Palestine” during the shooting and after being taken into custody, police said. (Between incidents like this, Molotov cocktail attacks, and car bombings, the United States is starting to resemble other terrorism-riddled nations. The political left got one of their wishes.)
