    Please understand a few things about this JCC. Nobody who works there are Jewish. Its in a non jewish area and does not support any of the frum mosdos in South Florida.

    Do not for a moment think that if one hires a member of our community one is immune from being victimized by a crime.

    Unfortunately boys from frum mosdos , girls too know more who is tackle or a quarterback and girls except for BY in Baltimore know what you can put in spitz finger where Teerblinka or who Eichmann was and to step in the YV is treife. Frumkeit is not an automatic guaranteee of knowing Jewish history or even caring what happened to the European Jews. The achdus was achieved by Hitler when in the gas chambers, “yekkes, Ostjuden, Ungarische” frum and nisht frum all inhaled Zyklon B or prussic acid, sad indeed and nothing has been leaned since.
