<p>On October 10, 2010, <i>Or Chadash</i> was notified that its synagogue was one of the addresses on the packages in the 2010 cargo plane bomb plot.<sup id="cite_ref-Byrne_3-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Byrne-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Rabbi Edwards said "We're rather puzzled at how a little congregation like ours would get on the radar as a target for somebody". Because Or Chada is so small, Edwards surmised that it had been targeted at random, or because it is mostly gay.<sup id="cite_ref-Usborne_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Usborne-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The website of Emanuel Congregation, which shares space with Congregation Or Chadash, was recently visited 83 times in one day by someone in Egypt, according to Emanuel's website administrator.<sup id="cite_ref-Etter_14-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Etter-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, intelligence officials are reported to believe that the synagogues were not actual targets and that the bombs were intended to detonate while still on board airplanes.<sup id="cite_ref-Mazzetti_15-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Mazzetti-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> According to <i><a href="CNN.com" class="mw-redirect" title="CNN.com">CNN.com</a></i>, on November 3, Or Chadash co-president Lilli Kornblum "said that despite earlier reports, an FBI agent informed her that her synagogue was not one of the intended destinations in the foiled bomb plot that originated in Yemen."<sup id="cite_ref-CNN_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CNN-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Later reports indicated that one of the bombs had been addressed to Or Chadash's former location on West Barry, and the other to an inactive Orthodox synagogue, also in Chicago. Investigators believed that the bombers "...used an outdated directory of Chicago Jewish institutions that is still available on the Internet." Robert Pape, a <a href="University_of_Chicago" title="University of Chicago">University of Chicago</a> professor who has studied terrorist groups, believed that the synagogues were a backup plan, had the bombs not detonated mid-flight.<sup id="cite_ref-Grossman_9-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Grossman-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The packages would have been delivered on the <a href="Shabbat" title="Shabbat">Jewish Sabbath</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Grossman_9-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Grossman-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>By mid-2016, Or Chadash membership had declined to about 60 members "basically because we got what we wanted. … There's no longer a need for a separate congregation," Or Chadash co-president Lilli Kornblum told a local newspaper.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On June 24, 2016, Or Chadash held its final service as an independent congregation, and after considering a merger with three Chicago Reform institutions, merged with the Am Keshet LGBT group at Temple Sholom in Chicago.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
