Obama Has Visited Indonesian Mosque But No Synagogue Anywhere Since Taking Office

President and Mrs. Obama visited a controversial mosque in Indonesia on Wednesday, but there is no indication the president has visited a synagogue anywhere since becoming president, according to a review of the White House Web site and news reports.
On Wednesday, Obama and his wife were photographed outside the Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad attended a Friday prayer service at the same mosque during a trip to Indonesia four years ago. Before his visit to the mosque, Ahmadinejad had given speeches in Indonesia in which he predicted that Israel would be destroyed, cast doubt on the historical fact of the Holocaust and said that every young Muslim man is an "atomic bomb."  At the mosque, the congregation greeted Ahmadinejad with a chant of: "God is great."

Rabbi Aryeh Spero, president of Caucus for America, said he is unaware of Obama making any visits to a synagogue since taking office.
Spero believes a goal of Obama’s presidency is to “mainstream Islam,” and visiting the mosque fits that agenda, while visiting a synagogue would not.
President Obama seems to find it important to visit and identify with Islamic Mosques, but not with Christian Churches or Jewish Synagogues.
