I agree Chang. There is no reason to believe this wasn’t just a frustrated, angry citizen, much like Mangione. This is to be expected. It is going to increase as the oppression increases. The Zionist genocide has been taken advantage of by many governments (most notably the USA and UK) to introduce authoritarian, pre-Nazi oppressions. Just as in Europe in the 1940s, internal citizens and groups will form a resistance. Israel is certainly capable of a false flag event like this but my guess is that Mangione and Rodriguez are early examples of what is to come. As the resistance matures you’ll see more attacks on the politicians and oligarchs.

For those who worry these individual acts will give the "fascists the ammo they need to come after us", the fascists don't need "ammo". Coming after those they label as "other" and those who are like them but disagree with them is in the fascist DNA. Biden, Trump, Sunak, and Starmer didn't need events like this to introduce legislation and tactics to suppress peaceful protests. They are coming for us; we should be getting ready rather than condemning individual acts or debating conspiracy theories.
