[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so confused at how everyone in this thread assumed that OP’s post was about Israeli misconduct and not about Israeli suffering. [/quote] 1. Religious observance is often a comfort in times of suffering. Hanukkah observance is low key and inspiring. [b]Observing Hanukkah is more like going to a church service than a drunken Christmas party.[/b] It's not incompatible with Israeli suffering. 2. Lived experience. I'm in a Facebook group where another (nonJewish) mom announced that menorahs were now "contentious symbols" and Jews should not be "putting them in windows" this year. Her post got dozens of likes from other non Jews, many of whom, I'm sure, would have been wholly offended at the suggestion that Muslim women stop wearing hijab after 9-11. [/quote] Sorry you’re not getting invited to the good Hanukkah parties :lol: [/quote]
