Self-Identified "Christian" White Nationalist Terrorism -- Please call it what it is [View all]
A manifesto posted online shortly before the attack and purporting to be by Earnest cites hatred of Jewish people as the motive for the attack, and takes credit for a separate arson attack on an Escondido mosque last month.
The manifesto author wrote that he was carrying out the attack on the synagogue because he was a good Christian.
'My god understands why I did what I did,' it read, according to The Jerusalem Post.
The author claims that Jewish people were responsible for the murder of Christ and now control the media and economy.
'Every Jew young and old has contributed to these,' it reads. 'For these crimes they deserve nothing but hell. I will send them there.'
