CA Synagogue Leases Space to Moque and Gets Paid with a Reality Check

"Why did you sting me, now we will both die," said the frog. "I couldn't help it because it is my nature," answered the scorpion.

City of Angels, California -- a conservative congregation has gotten a reality check in their "outreach" and "dialogue" brainstorming with the religion of peace. 

The Hamakom synagogue naively leased its facility to a local Muslim group and the Muslim group unleashed its deep-rooted sentiments about Jewish people. Predictably, to everyone but the leaders of the Hamakom synagogue, the Muslim group didn't cotton so much to Jews and hosted a militant anti-Semitic speaker who refused to condemn the Hamassholes and compared Israel to Nazi Germany, making for an interesting "dialogue" and "outreach."

 

The leadership of the synagogue hoped to build bridges with Muslims in Los Angeles, which is why they leased to the Muslim group. “In this time of rising anti-Semitism and Islamophobia,” synagogue leaders told the congregation, “it is incumbent upon us to reach out to strengthen the bonds between religious communities in our neighborhood, recognizing there is more that unites us than divides us.” 

Of course, this was as short-sighted as the last husky on the dog sled, but it was well-intentioned. They didn't anticipate how hundreds of years of hatred and suspicion for the Jews would manifest itself. After all, weren't they being nice to the Muslims?

But the synagogue leaders didn't realize how they were seen as  “the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe,” as the Qur’an says (5:82). They let the Muslims use the building every night while the Jews  “would only be allowed to worship in two rooms from 8 p.m. to midnight. Evening programs and Friday night Sabbath services were also relocated to a smaller site also owned by the synagogue.” 

To show the Muslims their willingness to grovel for their friendship, understanding and coexistence with them, the Hamakom leadership covered up the pictures of the Israeli hostages kidnapped by the Hamassholes on October 7, 2023 when they invaded Israel and killed, tortured, beheaded, burned, raped and mutilated over 1,200 Israelis, in an unprovoked attack.

The level to which the synagogue leadership was willing to go to in order to virtue signal was boundless. They were willing to give up their principals to show how open-minded they are.

On the other hand, the Islamic Society of West Valley held fast to their own beliefs and weren't eager to befriend people they consider to be apes and pigs, as their so called holy scripture calls Jews and Christians.
