kumbaya post for July 4

AP says a Conservative Jewish organization will attend annual convention of American Islamic society for first time.

Sayyid Syeed remembers an interfaith event several years ago when a
Jewish leader went to embrace him, saw someone snapping a photo, then
suddenly pulled back.

"He said to the man, `Stop,'" Syeed recalled, "`I'll lose my job.'"

Reform Judaism has been there before, Conservatives say they feel a "duty" to be there. Also Pastor Rick Warren is going.
End of kumbaya moment: All the conservative Jews, f'rinstance Malcolm Hoenlein, trashing Obama for saying there are 7 million Muslims in the U.S. when there are only — who knows, x marks the spot.
