Robert Bowers, arrested in synagogue massacre, argued there is a war between Jews and Western civilization and claimed Jews control Trump.
A day after the deadly mass-shooting in a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania synagogue, investigators continued to probe gunman Robert Bowers, the 46-year-old resident of Baldwin, Pennsylvania responsible for the attack.
On Sunday, Scott Brady, US Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania, confirmed claims made shortly after news of the attack broke that Bowers had explicitly expressed a desire to kill Jews before and during the 20-minute shooting attack on the Tree of Life synagogue.
According to the federal complaint against Bowers which was publicized Sunday, Bowers told the arresting officer at the scene of the mass-shooting Saturday that Jews were “committing genocide” against whites, and that he felt motivated to target Jews.
“They’re committing genocide to my people,” Bowers said. “I just want to kill Jews.”
Attorney General Jeff Sessions said earlier that the Justice Department was treating the case as a hate-crime.
Thirteen people were shot Saturday morning after Bowers burst into the Tree of Life synagogue during a circumcision ceremony and opened fire with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle and several handguns.
During the 20-minute melee, eleven people inside the synagogue were fatally wounded, with two others were wounded.
After police arrived on the scene, Bowers shot and wounded four officers, before he was shot and wounded by police, and surrendered to authorities.
Bowers’ social media accounts were littered with anti-Semitic rhetoric, conspiracy theories, and attacks on the US government and President Donald Trump.
On his account on the ‘Gab’ social media outlet, Bowers – who according to Pennsylvania state voting records was a registered independent – claimed that a Jewish conspiracy controlled the US government and was dedicated to ‘controlling whites’.
In an image Bowers reposted to his account, President Trump is shown taking orders from an Orthodox Jewish man.
“Your character will appear to the public as a white racist. Its how we control Whites,” the Jewish man says in the image, with President Trump subserviently responding “Yes sir.”

1400 Palestinian children killed by Israel forces since 2000 and the media and our government is silent yet 8 Jews die in Pittsburgh and in the media all hell is let lose. Where is our honor, our integrity – have all our good people left America. The media and Hollywood is primarily owned by the Jews and whare is there outrage over the killing of innocent Palestinian children.
Bower: Ashkenazi surname. Interesting if you ask me.
ed note–No. ‘Bower’ is just a bastardized/anglicized version of ‘Bauer’, the German word for ‘farmer’. There is nothing ‘ashkenazi’ about it.
Perhaps you should do a little research before presenting such things as fact due to the obvious diversion/distraction that such statements cause.
