[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is how I understand your post, but please correct me if I'm wrong: [i]I don't feel right celebrating Hanukkah this year while there is so much suffering in Israel. It feels like the Jewish community is in a period of mourning and I don't know how to be joyful in such somber times. I might also feel targeted and unsafe given rising antisemitism.[/i] To which I would respond: Hanukkah is about finding light and hope in the darkness. It's about shining brightly for all to see. It's about Jewish pride. My family will celebrate as usual at home, at our synagogue, with friends, and in public.[/quote]
