>>It is a tragedy in part because America has finally made the list of countries in which Jews were murdered for being Jews.
the tally of victims is higher but this is not a first occurrence. There was a rampage on a Jewish community center in Seattle and there was a murder at LAX at the El Air counter.

The Seattle Jewish Federation shooting occurred on July 28, 2006, at around 4:00 p.m. PT, when Naveed Afzal Haq shot six women, one fatally, at the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle building in the Belltown neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, United States. Naveed Haq was convicted in December 2009 and sentenced to life without parole plus 120 years.[1] Police have classified the shooting as a “hate crime” based on what Haq is alleged to have said during a 9-1-1 call.[2] King County Prosecuting Attorney Norm Maleng described the shooting as “one of the most serious crimes that has ever occurred in this city”.[1]

On Independence Day of the United States, July 4, 2002, a lone terrorist opened fire at the airline ticket counter of El Al, Israel’s national airline, at Los Angeles International Airport in Los Angeles, California. Two people were killed and four others were injured before the gunman was fatally shot by an El Al security guard after also being wounded by him.
In both of these cases antisemitic Islamists targeted strangers simply because they were Jewish.
Did you know in the Seattle attack the jury hung in the first trial, he would have walked. While waiting for his second trial moron not only confessed but justified it to his mom and implied he’d do it again. Dummy didn’t realize jail visitor conversations could be recorded. As to the first jury, in the face of overwhelming evidence of premeditation, I just don’t know.
