An Israel real estate sales event that was scheduled to take place at the Shul on Avenue N and East 27 Street will not take place tomorrow at this location. The event had triggered a planned protest outside the shul.
Additionally, the Rabbonim are asking all those who were planning to counter-protest, to please not attend, as the event is not going forward tomorrow.
Many of the protesters are known agitators, and with (literally) thousands of children being dropped off by buses from yeshiva at that very time of the event, [not to mention this being a highly residential neighborhood], the question was posed to the one of the leading Poskim, Hagaon HaRav Dovid Cohen who ruled that the event should be canceled.
Regardless of the event being canceled, there will be a massive NYPD and Flatbush Shormim presence at the Shul all day.

Forcing to cancel the event out of fear is the very reason why the people in Flatbush should be considering Aliya.
This Cancellation is an Absolute Disgrace for the Shul.
It also sounds like they Threw Rabbi David Cohen under the Bus by blaming the cancellation on his decision. Maybe you don't recall, but there is a real war going on in Israel. A war for Israel's Existence. A war for a place where Jews Don't have to be afraid to be Jews. That's What is at stake here in this Global Intifada. The question of the moment is whether You Want to Look forward and be Proud of being Jewish, or you want to Hide under the bed as your parents were being killed in the Pogrom. My Grandmother told the stories of Rabbis in the 1930's who said, Don't Run, they would never harm civilians. The times are changing and the future is looking like the past. The only question is which way do you want to look.
The Arabs made big problems at the Toronto & Teaneck locations while the cops sucked their thumbs like a bunch of goylems
