AOC condemned the killings of ‘two people’ in DC last night after the murder of two Jewish staffers at the Israeli embassy by a pro-Palestinian terrorist.
Here’s what she wrote:
Absolutely nothing justifies the murder of innocents. I am devastated by the killing of two people outside an @AJCGlobal event here in Washington. Our prayers are with the victims, families, and loved ones of all impacted.
As we await more details, we must be clear that hatred has no home here. Antisemitism is a threat to all we hold dear as a society. It must be confronted and rooted out everywhere.
This didn’t go over well at all. As a friend said, commenters were out for blood:
“Two people”? They were two JEWS. And more specifically, worked at the Israeli Embassy. These are pertinent details. Maybe you ought to be more mindful of your relentless inflammatory rhetoric, that only emboldens the kinds of perpetrators from tonight’s heinous attack.

The shooter yelled "Free Palestine."
Hope that clarifies some details.

You literally cheered on a crowd at Columbia last year that was chanting 'Globalize the Intifada'.
What the fuck did you think they meant? https://t.co/piTtF5qHE6

Your blatant antisemitism for years and years has caused this act of evil.
Resign AOC. You are the problem.
You and antisemites like @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib.
Shame on you and your Hamas Squad.
RESIGN.

And it goes on and on. I can’t really add much to this because these commenters are absolutely right.
