The Guardian began a Live Blog today on the murder last night, by a far-left, anti-Zionist activist, of two Israeli embassy staff outside a Washington, DC Jewish museum. The victims, Yaron Lischinsky, an Israeli Christian, and Sarah Milgrim, an American Jew, who were planning to get engaged soon, were reportedly shot by Elias Rodriguez, 30, of Chicago, who shouted “Free-Palestine” after his arrest.
While expressions of condemnations from around the world poured in, the Live Blog, edited at the time by Helen Livingstone, Guardian Australia’s Europe front editor, included the following entry, which was posted at 05:52 BST.
So, the Guardian, whose coverage since Oct. 2023 has been effectively pro-Hamas, and continually publishes incendiary and libelous content about Israel, including anti-Jewish tropes, couldn’t even report on the antisemitism-inspired killing of two by a Palestine supporter in the US without suggesting that Israel’s putative villainy represented vital ‘context’ by which to understand the murders.
Though the Guardian Live Blog entry is appalling, and includes the lie that the IDF “attacks schools, hospitals and shelters” daily, it’s not all surprising given their record on Jews and Israel. The outlet has been gaslighting Jews about antisemitism for years, and insisting, despite overwhelming evidence, that the British Jewish routinely conflates ‘real’ antisemitism with mere ‘criticism of Israel’. Further, especially since Oct. 7, they’ve ignored and whitewashed the anti-Jewish racism and outright terror support that’s pervasive within the pro-Palestinian movement.
Now, after an innocent man and women were shot dead at point blank range by a follower of the cult of pro-Palestinianism, it’s clear their main concern is not the victims of the terror attack, but, rather, protecting at all costs their anti-Zionist ideological project.
What did you do during the genocide in Gaza?

So it’s official, then. It IS genocide. Thank God the Guardian was on hand to clarify the matter.
The worst attempt at genocide in the history of the planet.
