At first, the masters of propaganda thought the shooter was Palestinian or Arab and they were prepared to pounce on the pro-Palestinian students on campus, but the shooter, Elias Rodriguez, is a light-skinned Latino with strong leftist beliefs and ties.
He was at one time linked to a socialist group ('Party for Socialism and Liberation'), but they claim he left a long time ago.
And guess what? At one time he even worked for a Black Historical society.
Also, he was present at a rally in support of the 1917 anniversary of the Chicago police shooting of Laquan McDonald, a black kid.
I think Elias Rodriguez has a good revolutionary heart but he got frustrated and allowed the genocide in Gaza to get under his skin-- he messed up and got violent, killing two Israeli Jews. That kind of violence does not help the cause at all. And it comes at a time when most of the world are turning against Israel, especially in Europe.
Those of us who support the Palestinian cause must remain disciplined at all times. There.
