LOS ANGELES -- The Greater Los Angeles Area chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations Saturday was calling for extra police protection at local mosques following a disturbing hate letter that was received.
According to a CAIR-LA press release, the letter was sent to the Islamic Center of Long Beach and the Islamic Center of Claremont.

It added that President-elect Donald Trump is "going to cleanse America and make it shine again," by doing "what Hitler did to the Jews."
CAIR's San Francisco Bay Area chapter called for similar police protection of mosques after the same letter was sent to an Islamic center in San Jose.
