Speaker 1: members of Israel's embassy in Washington, d C. Let's go

9
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 1: to NBC News for the report place overnight.

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 2: A deadly shooting in Washington.

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 1: D C tonight at Hana's crime was committed.

12
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 2: A gunman opening fire at the Capitol Jewish Museum, killing

13
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 2: two staff members of the Israeli embassy. New video showing

14
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: the suspect being detained shouting pro Palestinian messages. Police say

15
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: the shooting happened shortly after nine pm at a museum

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: event hosted by the American Jewish Committee.

17
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: Was observed pacing back and forth outside of the museum.

18
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: He approached a group of four people, produced a handgun

19
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: and opened fire.

20
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: The suspect, identified as thirty year old Elias Rodriguez from

21
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 2: Chicago then entered the museum and was detained by event security.

22
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: According to authorities Israel, identifying the victims as yarn Lezhinski

23
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: and Sarah Lynn Milgram, a young couple who are about

24
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: to become engaged.

25
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: The young man purchased a ring this week with the

26
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: intention of proposing to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem.

27
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: Now this isn't political for me. This is about humanity, okay.

28
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: I know the Israeli versus Palestinian conflict is one of

29
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: the most intense debates in the world today and has

30
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: been for thousands of years. I am fully aware that

31
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: Elias shouted free Palestine, Free Palestine while in police custody

32
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: and implied that he committed the shooting. This is definitely

33
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: driven by what is currently happening in Palestine. Since October seventh,

34
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: fifty three thousand, six hundred and fifty five Palestinian have

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: been killed in Gaza, according to the Gaza Health Ministry,

36
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: and those numbers may be underreported because thousands of bodies

37
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: are believed to be buried under rubble. I understand all

38
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: of that, but what I want us to understand is

39
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: this is why you can't ignore what's going on in

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the world. What's going on in the

41
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: rest of the world impacts us here, whether we are

42
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: aware of what's going on or not. Okay, I was

43
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 1: in my office this morning and I looked at this couple,

44
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 1: Sarah and Yarn, Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lisinski. I think

45
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: it is I was watching them this morning and I

46
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: read that they were on a night out and they

47
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: were about to get engaged, and it just simply hurt

48
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: my feelings. I don't care what their race is, their ethnicity.

49
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: All I saw was two humans who became casualties of

50
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: a system that is failing us all. Just like all

51
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: those kids and innocent people being killed in Gaza are

52
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: casualties of a failed system. And it doesn't seem like

53
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be an into it anytime soon. Okay,

54
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: people are just going to be out here getting it

55
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: back in blood eye for an eye, And I personally

56
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: don't want to live in a world like that, even

57
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: though we already do. Okay, we are already in that

58
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: world because any of us can be casualties of a system.

59
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: Another country could send the nuclear weapon over here right

60
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: now and kill us all because they don't like our government,

61
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: because they don't like our system. When most people in

62
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: America don't even like our government. They don't like our system.

63
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: But we become casualties of it because we are part

64
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: of the processes and the structures and policies of this country,

65
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: whether we want to be or not. And that's what

66
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: I mean when I see this couple, okay, that Elias

67
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: Rodriguez gunned down. He don't know what they was on, Okay,

68
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: For all he knows, they might have worked at Israel's

69
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: embassy and absolutely disagree with how Israel is handling Gaza.

70
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: We don't know, but that's why Martin Luther King Junior said,

71
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: an injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. The

72
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: same empathy I have for the innocent people and children

73
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: being killed in Gaza is the empathy I have for

74
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: this couple, Sarah and yarn Okay, same empathy I have

75
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: for the people who got killed at the concert on

76
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: October seventh. That could be any of us at any

77
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: given time. It was just a couple on a night

78
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: out and got gunned down. I don't know about y'all,

79
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: but because of all of these mass shootings that happen

80
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: in this country. The way my anxiety is set up.

81
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: When I'm out I think about stuff like this. Okay,

82
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: if you don't, God bless you, all right, But situations

83
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: like this are my worst nightmare. You just out with

84
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 1: your lady and somebody shoots and kills you. I'm not

85
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: with that. I don't respect it. I don't condone it.

86
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: I don't like seeing innocent people being killed. Meanwhile, the

87
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: puppet master's pulling the scrings are highly protected. Okay, them

88
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: and their families don't have to worry about this stuff

89
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: nearly as much as we do. Okay, don't get me wrong.

90
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: I know that people in charge of these systems can

91
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: get it too, but we the people, have way less

92
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,119
Speaker 1: protection than they do. I tell y'all all the time

93
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: on this devil damn radio. Every day of our lives,

94
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: we are trying to avoid crazy. Okay. Do you understand

95
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 1: how civilized we are as a society. I know it

96
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: don't seem like that, but think about it. Hundreds of

97
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: millions of people interact every day, and for the most part,

98
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: we mind business, okay, because all it takes is one

99
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: guy like Elias Rodriguez. They're ruin all our days. Okay,

100
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: we need to really pat ourselves on the back sometime

101
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: and thank God that more of us aren't snapping Elias.

102
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: I understand why he snapped, but I disagree with innocent

103
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: people getting killed because of his snapping. What Elias did

104
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: isn't activism, It's terrorism and any of us could be

105
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,239
Speaker 1: the victim of that terrorism. And if the reports are correct,

106
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: this couple, Sarah and Yarn, was attending an event to

107
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: discuss humanitarian responses in the Middle East in North Africa. Damn.

108
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 1: So they was trying to build bridge. It's not Burnham. Okay.

109
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: We can't be like this is a society. We can't

110
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: ignore what happened to this couple in DC. We can't

111
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: ignore what's happening to innocent people in Gaza. If you

112
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 1: don't have empathy for it all, I don't want to

113
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: talk to you, Okay, Because violence begets violence, Hatred breeds

114
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: more hatred, and if we allow our grief and anger

115
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: to justify targeting innocent people, whether in the name of

116
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: Palestine or Israel, then we lose our humanity. Okay. This

117
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: shooting in DC should be reminded that the conflicts overseas

118
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: have real consequences here at home, and this is why

119
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: we all should be demanding an into violence on both sides. Okay,

120
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: Shared humanity has to prevail over division. Compassion gotta outweigh rage,

121
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: commitment to peace has to be louder than the voice

122
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: of hate. Please give Elias Rodriguez the biggest he huh,

123
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: just my thoughts, just the way I'm feeling at the time.

124
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, well, let's not say that. Let's have

125
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: some Let's have some faith in a higher power. Okay.

126
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: All of this has to be happening for a reason. Okay,

127
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: and in some way we have to trust the process.

128
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: As disgusting as the process is, you know, let's hope

129
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: for better days. We have just fixed my mess coming

134
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: Gingers can't use it on each other. That's not right.

135
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: Is harassment. The men can only do with the other men.

136
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: Why because he can only skinny one? Don't they said that?

Speaker 1: penis laser to fix your mess, your mouth is moving
