John Hagee

Pastor John Hagee of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, and founder of Christians United for Israel, shared his thoughts on the tragedy in an X post Monday morning.

Hagee addressed the fact that one of the victims was a Holocaust survivor. 

"Yesterday, a victim, who had survived the flames of the Holocaust 80 years ago, suffered burns at the hands of a terrorist in Boulder, Colorado. While separated by a different millennium, a different generation, a different country, a different weapon, and a different perpetrator, one thing that remains the same is the evil scourge that is Jew hatred," he wrote. "Be it 'Heil Hitler' or 'Free Palestine' the goal is the same, the complete and total destruction of the Jewish people, their nation, and those who stand with them."
