The failure of the Jewish organizations

To my fellow Jews,

The Greater Los Angeles Jewish Federation cannot bear hearing the truth; more so, is scared of islamofascists pressure or Leftist pressure of both.
The abrupt cancellation of Pamela Geller's appearance that was due to take place in the Jewish Federation building has brought to center thoughts I have had for years:



What is there to say? Shame on the Jewish Federation?! It has refused to allow Americans, particularly American Jews, the opportunity to learn how Islamic Jew hatred is a driving force in Islam, in general, and the root of the intractable conflict the Arab have with Israel in particular. The Jewish Federation apologizing for the cancellation of the event is not enough. Will it reschedule Pamela Geller - or will it continue enforcing ignorance as the order of the day? If it does not promptly reschedule Pamela Geller's appearance and perhaps even invite Steve Emerson to talk about his book "Jihad Incorporated - A Guide to a Militant Islam in the US," here is the e-mail to remove oneself from the LA Federation donors' list: kdors@jewishla.org, or, call 323-761-8000 and ask for donor services.

The responsible party is no one but the LA Jewish Federation. PERIOD! Bad call.

Having said that, now more than ever it is incumbent upon us to re-take control of our communities. We have been mislead for too many years and you know what happened when we are mislead; remember the 1930s to 1945 years.
Most of our organizations today are nothing more than a bottomless money cup with nothing much to show for it. That people who are in their positions because of our money become renegade, maneuvers and usurp control but are not representing our interest and true JEWISH values is no longer acceptable and should no longer be tolerated. These organizations have taken us for granted for way too long. We are their useful idiots and they are not truthful with us and how they utilize our money, which keeps their doors open. And many times they sell out our interests at our peril.

Just remember history; they WILL NOT DEFEND our children or us, just as their equals did years ago and just as in Israel they assault Jews and destroy their lives, rather than eliminating the enemies of the Jews, i.e. Hamas, Iran, etc.

They hide the facts from us and think, perhaps they are on the enemy's side and are "partners" with the enemy?! Do we know? I don't.
Woe to those who do not understand reality.

Time to take our communities back!

LA Jewish Federation Cancels Event Citing Muslim Threats

At the last minute, the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles cancelled a Sunday morning event where Pamela Geller was scheduled to speak on the issues of war in the Middle East and the historical hatred of Jews in the Muslim world.

Citing security concerns that the building might be stormed by Muslim activists, the Federation informed the Zionist Organization of America – which was hosting the event – that the speech would be called off.

“We said, ‘we will pay for additional security so there will be no problems,’” Morton Klein, President of the ZOA, told The Algemeiner. “They rejected that, saying ‘we’re not going to let Pam Geller or any of your people in the building.’”

Klein says the event was posted for months on the Federation’s website and that everything was done transparently throughout the process of scheduling Geller to speak, and that the timing of the cancellation was upsetting.

“If there was a problem, we should have discussed it earlier, but we shouldn’t cancel a talk because of threats and condemnations from the Muslim world,” Klein said.
The Jewish Federation of Greater LA has not returned requests for comment on this story.
Geller, who is a controversial author and activist criticized by some for her beliefs towards Islam, says the Jewish Federation in LA has set a dangerous precedent.

“I think it was a disaster. Zionism is not welcome at the LA Jewish Federation,” she said in an interview with The Algemeiner. “It was almost a historical moment where they would cave to a group who is affiliated with Hamas,” she said, referring to reports that the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which has been linked to the terrorist group by the U.S. Congress, was responsible for the event’s cancellation.
According to the Los Angeles Times, CAIR representative Hussam Ayloush says his group will not be affected by people like Geller.

We will not be affected by the noise of people who hopefully become more and more irrelevant,” Ayloush said. “Unfortunately, outrageous rhetoric gets attention because it’s outrageous, and Pamela Geller knows that very well.”

Suggestions that the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles may have made their decision based on threats from “left-wing” donors, and not Muslim activists, were made to The Algemeiner by numerous sources.

And according to Klein, officials from the Federation have apologized to the ZOA for the cancellation.

“They called and told us they made a mistake,” he said.
“We have nothing against the Federation. They do important work and they help Israel,” Klein added.
