Re: Hate and idiocity at its best... 6 dead in mosque attack
Greetings and peace be with you fromelsewhere;
Then several acts of kindness revived their spirits
The leaders of the local Jewish congregation gave them the keys to their synagogue so they could continue to worship. The leader of the mosque said he wasn't surprised by the gesture.
"I never doubted the support that we were going to get" after the fire, Dr. Shahid Hashmi, a surgeon and president of Victoria Islamic Center, told CNN. "We've always had a good relationship with the community here."
Hashmi said Dr. Gary Branfman -- a member of Temple B'nai Israel in Victoria, as well as a fellow surgeon and friend -- just came by his house and gave him the keys.
Support from around the world
And that wasn't the only offer of a temporary worship space that was extended. Hashmi said three local churches said his congregation could use their buildings.
