Shooting of Israeli Embassy Employees Shakes Washington
The shooting occurred on a street outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington.
I was walking by and a guy came up and [it] looked like a gun, I couldn’t tell what it was, but I heard it afterwards, the shots. And he shot this young couple. He just ran up. It was… It was terrible. Prior to the shooting, the suspect was observed pacing back and forth outside of the museum. He approached a group of four people, produced a handgun, and opened fire, striking both of our decedents. After the shooting, the suspect then entered the museum and was detained by event security. Free, free Palestine. Free, free Palestine. The couple that was gunned down tonight in the name of “free Palestine,” is a young couple about to be engaged. The young man purchased a ring this week with the intention of proposing to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem. I have been worried for the past few months that something like this would happen. There is a direct line connecting antisemitic and anti-Israeli incitement to this murder. This incitement is also done by leaders and officials of many countries and international organizations, especially from Europe.
