LA Mayor Karen Bass Silent as Antisemitic Mob Targets Westside Jews

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) were silent Sunday after an antisemitic mob targeted the Adas Torah synagogue in the Jewish neighborhood of Pico-Robertson. 
As Breitbart News reported, dozens of pro-Palestinian activists blocked the entrance to the synagogue to prevent members of the Jewish community from attending a meeting about purchasing real estate in Israel.

Protesters were reported to have surrounded the synagogue and prevented people from being able to enter.

Jews around the world are considering relocating to Israel due to antisemitic violence. In addition, some Jews wish to move to Israel out of religious sentiment; to retire there; or simply to own vacation homes or investment properties there.

Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers with riot gear showed up as violence broke out between pro-Palestinian protesters and counter-protesters on Pico Blvd, ABC7 News reported.

The outlet noted that the confrontations between protesters and counter-protesters began with verbal confrontations, and then moved on to physical fights.

Several protesters were reportedly detained; however, law enforcement officials said nobody had been arrested, according to the outlet.

Update: After this story was published (8:37 p.m. PT), Newsom (10:16 p.m.) and then Bass (10:27 p.m.) responded:
