Years of DEI which spread the lie that every woe was due to “colonialism.” Zionism was and is viewed as “colonialist,” and the state of Israel as the “Zionist Project.” The truth is that the jihad against infidels and Jews began long before colonialism (as did black-on-black violence). Credit for the mess America is in also goes to those who advocated for open-door, unvetted immigration. A general hatred of America proliferated and became putrid under years of Democrat/leftist rule. “Pro-Palestine, Marxist groups start ‘Free Elias Rodriguez’ campaign, laud ‘legitimate act,’” by Mathilda Heller, Jerusalem Post, May 29, 2025:

A week after the murder of Israeli embassy workers Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim in DC, multiple pro-Palestine and Marxist groups have rallied behind the attacker – Elias Rodriguez – and announced campaigns to free him.

The most prominent of these campaigns was started by Unity of Fields – formerly known as Palestine Action US – which announced a “Free Elias Rodriguez Organizing Committee” on Monday.

The campaign is co-signed by 28 other pro-Palestine or Marxist groups, including Palestine News Network, The United Liberation Front for Palestine, the Chinese Palestine Solidarity Action Network, the DSA Liberation Caucus, the Bronx Anti-War coalition, and Tariq el-Tahrir Youth and Student Network.

The campaign statement calls Elias Rodriguez’s murder of the two embassy workers on May 21 “a legitimate act of resistance against the zionist state and its genocidal campaign in Gaza.”

“The time has now come for real consequences; they have left no other option,” it added.

The statement then launched into a multi-paragraph diatribe about Zionist supremacy and imperialism

To promote and celebrate the murder of two innocent people as a “legitimate act of resistance” is a demonstration of how far America has fallen. Enemies of America’s Judeo-Christian foundations, traditions and values are abusing the First Amendment to spread a rabid strain of antisemitism. Simultaneously, they are using antisemitism to destroy America from within. “Globalize the intifada” became their rallying cry and their springboard to the goal of destroying America from within. The “Palestine News Network, the United Liberation Front for Palestine, the Chinese Palestine Solidarity Action Network, the DSA Liberation Caucus, the Bronx Anti-War coalition, and Tariq el-Tahrir Youth and Student Network” are groups at war with America, and yet they are functioning with impunity on American soil.

These organizations, which are part of a larger network, are advocating for the murder of people on American soil in the name of revolution and “resistance.” This is well beyond the freedom of speech.

  1. Lessons from the Stalinist Left…attack and kill your enemies. Tim Walz is doing the same thing, encouraging violence and death, just as Biden did against Trump, just as Maxine Waters did against Trump’s administration, and just as Hamas supporters do against Jews. Tim Walz Tells Democrats to Be “Meaner” to President Trump: “You Have to Bully the Sh*t Out of Him.”

    This is the kind of vitriolic rhetoric that gets people killed. What has happened to America? The Marxists infiltrated all education, and they started this back in the 1930s. We see the horrific and devastating evil played out in the media every day. The horrific atrocity of murder is then justified…

  2. The only result of the killing of Shlomo Argov the then Israeli ambassador in London was to provoke the Israeli raid into Lebanon of 1978.
    The killing of a German diplomat in Paris in 1938 was the excuse for Kristalnacht.

  3. There is no excuse for killing envoys. Emissaries, diplomats, heralds have been sacred since time began or it would be impossible to negotiate. To kill dplomats is to signal you d not wish to talk like burglars yesteryear pulling the telephone wires from their sockets.
