Washington shooting suspect Elias Rodriguez's alleged manifesto says murders were 'the only sane thing to do'

A manifesto calling for armed demonstration as a response to the 'genocide' in Gaza surfaced online after 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez shot dead a young Israeli diplomat couple at the Capital Jewish Museum. It is believed that the manifesto belongs to Rodriguez, where he suggested that the murders of the diplomat couple were the only sane thing to do.

Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim -- set to be engaged soon -- were leaving an event at the Capital Jewish Museum when the suspect approached a group of four people and opened fire in a major anti-semitic incident in DC. The terrorist yelled 'Free, free Palestine' when police arrested him.




900-word manifesto on why he murdered an Israeli couple

Dated May 20, the lengthy manifesto explained how public opinion has shifted against the 'genocial state'. It mentioned former soldier Aaron Bushell who set himself on fire outside the Israeli embassy in protest. The manifesto quoted the number of dead Palestinians, based on figures from the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, and suggested the total figure could be higher.

“We who let this happen will never deserve the Palestinians’ forgiveness. They’re let us know as much,” the letter stated.

“Inhumanity has long since shown itself to be shockingly common, mundane, prosaically human. A perpetrator may then be a loving parent, a filial child, a generous and charitable friend... and yet be a monster all the same," it said.

"The action would have been morally justified taken 11 years ago...around the time I personally became acutely aware of our brutal conduct in Palestine," he wrote, probably referring to the murders that he was going to do.

"But I think to most Americans, such an action would have been illegible, would seem insane."

"I am glad that, today at least, there are many Americans for which the action will be highly legible and, in some funny way, the only sane thing to do."
