Why Are Israeli Officials Blaming France, Canada and the UK for the DC Shooting?

  • On May 22, 2025, two employees of the Israeli Embassy, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, were fatally attacked near the Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.
  • The shooting occurred after the couple left a museum event, and the suspect Elias Rodriguez admitted he acted ‘for Palestine’ and ‘for Gaza.’
  • Rodriguez discharged 21 rounds, repeatedly shooting the victims, including while they were already on the ground, before law enforcement apprehended him.
  • Rodriguez, 31, from Chicago and linked to the Party for Socialism and Liberation, legally purchased his weapon in Illinois in 2020 and shouted ‘Free, free Palestine!’ during the attack.
  • The incident is being examined as both an act of terrorism and a hate crime targeting the Jewish community, with officials from Israel and the United States denouncing the attack as motivated by antisemitism.
