A Southern California Jewish temple is trying to shame Mel Gibson into undoing a mess it created by taking out a jumbo loan on its synagogue — a loan that it can’t afford to pay back

Congregation Beth Shalom, located in Corona, sent Mel a letter in which it is requesting big money from the actor to prevent foreclosure. In a move resembling a homeless guy accosting you for money at a gas station, the letter reads in part, “Our proposal to you, Mr. Gibson, is since you have been cited as an Anti-Semitic, and have denied those allegations, what better way to prove to all your fans and the nay Sayers — than to endorse and help raise funds for our cause — SOS, Save Our Synagogue.” When you think about all the rich Jews that there are in Hollywood it is weird that these Jews would turn to an "anti-Semite" like Mel Gibson. Could it be that rich Jews are too cheap to help out their fellow Jews in a time of need?
