By Sandy Fitzgerald (May 22, 2025 / Newsmax) Morton Klein, national president of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), said Thursday the organization condemns the "brutal antisemitic murder" of Israel Embassy staffers Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., Wednesday. "This heinous act by a subhuman killer must be publicly condemned by everyone," Klein said in a statement. "We pray for the families of the murdered Jews. May their souls be for a blessing." Elias Rodriguez, 31, of Chicago, the suspect in the shootings, walked into the museum after opening fire and began chanting "Free, Free Palestine" as he was being detained by security officers. Israeli officials identified Lischinsky, a research assistant, as an Israeli citizen and Milgrim, who organized visits and missions to Israel, as an American. Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Yechiel Leiter said the victims were a young couple about to be engaged, and said Lischinsky had bought a ring this week with the intent to propose to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem. Klein said in his statement that the "Jew-hating Hamas-supporting Palestinian Arabs were offered and rejected a state eight times in the last 80 years, starting with the Peel Commission offer of 95% of the rest of Palestine" and have been "offered and rejected a state four times in the last 20 years." "Their goal is not having a state," said Klein, but to "murder every Jew and destroy the Jewish state as the Hamas charter proclaims." He added that Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority "pay Arabs a lifetime pension to murder Jews," but "Neither the UN nor the world ever condemns this Nazi-like policy."
