“Bring the War Home”: D.C. Gunman’s Manifesto Calls for Bloodshed in Support of Gaza
The suspect in Wednesday night’s fatal shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., allegedly authored a manifesto calling for violent attacks against individuals and institutions connected to Israel, declaring nonviolent protest “insufficient” and urging supporters to “escalate for Gaza.” Elias Rodriguez, 30, of Chicago, is accused of killing two Israeli embassy staff members as they exited an American Jewish Committee (AJC) Young Diplomats event around 9:00 p.m. Rodriguez shouted “Free, free Palestine” as he was arrested. Authorities have not yet officially confirmed a motive, but a manifesto shared online under Rodriguez’s name appears to outline a premeditated justification for violence. The document, titled “Escalate For Gaza, Bring The War Home,” was posted to a now-suspended account on X, and has been linked to Rodriguez by the ADL Center on Extremism with what it calls a “high degree of certainty.” The manifesto urges supporters to abandon what it terms ineffective forms of protest in favor of armed action, calling Israel’s military operations “genocide” and declaring that its “abettors” have “forfeited their humanity.” “The action would have been morally justified taken 11 years ago during Protective Edge,” the manifesto states, referring to Israel’s 2014 military campaign in Gaza. “But now, in 2025, it feels like the only sane thing to do.” The text concludes with the signature, “Free Palestine, Elias Rodriguez.” The post also praises Aaron Bushnell, a U.S. Airman who died in 2024 after self-immolating outside the Israeli embassy in protest of U.S. support for Israel, and calls such acts “moral” demonstrations of resistance. Rodriguez’s alleged social media activity, archived before the account was suspended, included multiple statements celebrating anti-Israel violence and sharing posts praising Hezbollah and Hamas. One post read, “Don’t blame me, I voted for Hamas,” while another declared “Death to Israel.” Law enforcement officials are investigating the manifesto as part of a broader probe into Rodriguez’s motivations and potential affiliations. Though Rodriguez has not been formally linked to any terror organization, his online presence indicates ties to extreme anti-Zionist rhetoric and groups with histories of militant protest. According to the ADL, Rodriguez had previous associations with the ANSWER Coalition and the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), participating in multiple protests from 2017 to 2018 in Chicago. Both groups have sought to distance themselves from the attack. In a statement, PSL wrote: “We reject any attempt to associate the PSL with the DC shooting…We have nothing to do with this shooting and do not support it.” Nevertheless, radical groups online have openly praised the attack. Masar Badil, a transnational anti-Israel organization, called the shooting a “natural consequence” of Israeli policy in Gaza. Others, including the Bronx Anti-War Coalition, described the act as the “highest expression of anti-Zionism,” and posted, “We need more Elias Rodriguez in the world.” Meanwhile, white supremacist and far-right forums also reacted with grotesque approval, with some praising the attack as “enemies killing each other,” and others using the suspect’s identity to spread anti-immigrant hate — despite no evidence Rodriguez is an immigrant. The attack comes amid a steep rise in antisemitic violence and threats in the United States. According to the ADL, 1,702 antisemitic incidents have already been recorded in 2024, including more than 600 related to anti-Israel demonstrations. This marks the eighth violent plot or attack targeting Jews or pro-Israel figures […]
NY GOING RED? Hypothetical Matchup Finds Elise Stefanik In Neck-And-Neck Race With Incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul
A newly released poll conducted by co/efficient shows Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik in a near tie with Democratic incumbent Governor Kathy Hochul in a hypothetical race for New York governor in 2026. The survey of likely voters indicates Hochul leading Stefanik 43% to 42%, with 15% of voters undecided. The same poll highlights President Donald Trump’s favorability in New York, where he holds a 44% favorability rating, surpassing Hochul’s net approval rating of -17%. Only 23% of respondents believe Hochul deserves re-election, while nearly two-thirds prefer a new governor, underscoring her vulnerability. Stefanik, a staunch Trump ally representing New York’s 21st Congressional District, has not officially declared her candidacy but has expressed strong interest. “Unlike Kathy Hochul, who was defeated after one term in Congress, we have a record of winning — not just Republicans but winning independents and a fair percentage of Democrats,” Stefanik told the New York Post. Her favorability stands at 34%, with 32% unfavorable and 34% unsure or unaware of her, according to the poll. A separate Siena College poll conducted last month reinforces Stefanik’s strength among Republican voters, showing her with 35% support in a potential GOP primary, compared to 22% for Rep. Mike Lawler and 11% for Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. No Republicans have formally entered the gubernatorial race, but Stefanik’s senior adviser, Alex DeGrasse, told Breitbart News that she is a “shoe-in” for the nomination if she runs, citing her popularity among New York Republicans. Hochul’s campaign dismissed Stefanik’s potential candidacy, labeling her an “extremist” and “staunch Trump loyalist.” Spokesperson Jen Goodman said, “We welcome the opportunity to contrast Gov. Hochul’s record of putting money back in New Yorkers’ pockets, supporting our kids, and keeping communities safe with Stefanik’s out-of-touch, divisive and dangerous record.” The poll also reflects broader dissatisfaction with Hochul’s leadership. A Siena College survey from April reported Hochul’s favorability at 44%, with 48% of voters preferring another candidate in 2026. Her approval rating remains slightly positive, but her re-election prospects face challenges, particularly as New York has seen a shift toward Republican candidates in recent elections. Stefanik’s potential run follows her withdrawal as Trump’s nominee for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations in March 2025, a decision made to maintain the GOP’s slim House majority. She has since been named chairwoman of House Republican Leadership. Her campaign has been bolstered by endorsements from major donors and encouragement from Trump, who posted on Truth Social, “Congresswoman Elise Stefanik is GREAT!!!” New York has not elected a Republican governor since George Pataki’s tenure ended in 2007. The 2022 gubernatorial race, where Hochul defeated Republican Lee Zeldin by 6 points, was the state’s closest in decades. (YWN World Headquarters – NYC)

The Lakewood community is once again plunged into mourning with the heartbreaking news that Refoel Faham z”l, one of the initial survivors of Friday morning’s horrific car crash, has tragically succumbed to his injuries. Refoel z”l had been critically injured in the devastating accident that occurred on Hope Chapel Road near New Central Avenue.

Two of the bochurim—Dovid Yitzchok Handler z”l and Chaim Zelig Berl z”l—were tragically niftar at the scene. The petirah of Refoel z”l brings the toll from this devastating tragedy to three.
