Two staff members of Israel’s embassy in Washington, D.C., were shot dead outside the district’s Capital Jewish Museum on Wednesday night, officials said.
The suspect shouted “Free, free Palestine” while in police custody and “implied” that he committed the shooting, Washington Police Chief Pamela Smith said. He was identified as Elias Rodriguez, in his early 30s, of Chicago.
Former Congressman and American Jewish Committee CEO Ted Deutch joined #MorningJoe to react to the tragedy:
“What happened after the event last night is really the realization of all of the Jewish community’s worst fears. This is what the community has been afraid of… Anti semitism isn’t violent until it becomes violent… How can this be the reality that we are living in? This is the time for action.”
