Our local mosque is "locked down", as is their services foundation, but the
Imam I know, at least, is OK (physically....). Nobody is sure about the other
Islamic community leader in our group. They hope to be having a
community-invited prayer meeting in the next few days, but of course, have to
worry about security; the rest of the Interreligious Council plans to send
"official representatives" to show solidarity, if the mosque can get
permission to have the event. Meanwhile, most churches, etc, are having
various prayer meetings of some sort, and many are making an effort to
include neighborhood Moslems and offering them a place to come if they feel
endangered.
Lots of military aircraft "up" in the last few days, and I'm pretty sure it
was Border Patrol helicoptors buzzing our neighborhood. Lines to get on any
of the military bases are excedingly long/slow-- there was a two hour wait on
the Coronado Bridge because of people going to the North Island air station.
Not sure yet if my husband will be directly affected-- he's a Navy Reservist,
but a lot of San Diego military are being sent every which way, and all have
been put "on alert".
