| London mosque secretly agrees to host Holocaust exhibition |
| 2019-01-16 |
| [IsraelTimes] An undisclosed London mosque has agreed to host an exhibition on the Holocaust that another Moslem house of worship canceled amid protests by members of that faith, activists say. The new venue is being kept under wraps for fear of a repeat of the campaign that led to the Golders Green mosque scrapping its event earlier this month, Fiyaz Mughal of the interfaith group Faith Matters tells The Jewish News of London. The Golders Green mosque canceled ‐ without giving a reason ‐ the exhibition titled "Love they Neighbor" about Albanians who rescued Jews during the Holocaust. The cancellation followed a journalist’s calls on a Moslem community news website to protest over the fact that the exhibition was created by Yad Vashem, Israel’s Holocaust museum. "Thankfully, the exhibition on Moslems who saved Jews is being held in Redbridge," Mughal says. "There is some fantastic work being done" in that borough of London, he adds. Separately, the Board of Deputies of British Jews said it would host next month the exhibition at a meeting in the presence of the Albanian ambassador to the United Kingdom, Qirjako Qirko. |
