Hasan Piker, aka HasanAbi, was banned from Twitch after he made posts about the Israeli embassy staff shooter, Elias Rodriguez's motive
The Bronx Anti-War group said what alleged gunman Elias Rodriguez “did is the highest expression of anti-Zionism” and “We need more Elias Rodriguez in this world” in a pair of social media posts Thursday. The shocking statements quickly drew fire from Bronx Rep. Ritchie Torres.
The suspect in the fatal shooting of two Israeli embassy staff outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., has been charged. Newsweek's live blog is closed.
On its website, the group clearly mentions that it supports the "right to resist colonial imperialism by any means necessary, including armed struggle."
The suspected terrorist busted for fatally shooting two Israeli Embassy staffers has ties to a radical left-wing group that spearheaded Black Lives Matter protests and fiercely advocates on behalf of Palestinians.
FBI agents could be seen walking in and out of the man's presumed apartment in the 4700 block of North Troy Street.
