The New York Times is not an unbiased fount of information, but a sophisticated ideological weapon. Our goal is to unmask the Times and expose the paper for what it is: a tool of empire encased in a liberal veneer.

This might help explain the #Crossword #Controversies.

I saw this when it happened, and not ONLY did the puzzle resemble a #swastika, one of the words was #Boxcars. AND this was on the start of #Hanukkah.

Do we know why Hanukkah was placed on the date of Kislev 25th?

Dispatches for the Go Back to Poland left.

"A #Polish #bishop has admonished a #priest who used his #church’s website to claim that “#Jews are taking over #Poland” and to express support for a far-right MP who attacked #Hanukkah candles that had been lit in parliament."

I almost always do a Hanukkah set, and it got away from me this year. Tough year that won't take its foot off of the bulldozer's accelerator, alas. But I needs me Hanukkah set, so, belatedly, here she be... (Screw off, Grammarly.)

The dual aspects of my #childhood explained in two festive greeting cards... My dad was #Jewish, my mom was not. I was raised as everything and nothing (eventually nothing won). Here's a card from my mom's side of the family for my first #Christmas. Also a #Hanukkah card from my dad's side.

A young girl with a blonde ponytail tied with a blue bow is gazing at two lit candles in gold candleholders. A circle of multicoloured stars surrounds her. The top of the card says: A Hanukkah greeting for you.

I recently did some plein air sketching at Tucson Botanical Gardens & this cactus menorah was my favorite holiday decoration I saw there! I loved their use of yellow & red grafted cacti for the candle flames!

Selected quotes from the article 🤡

"In the letter, the students alleged he was sharing "pro-#Israeli propaganda" through social media, and that he was no longer welcome to speak."

"The letter, shared with Jewish News of Northern California, expressed a "growing concern" about Kalb's impending visit, noting his association with groups including the California Legislative #Jewish Caucus and the Jewish Community Relations Council."

"Kalb, the letter asserts, is playing an "active role in retweeting and spreading pro-Israeli propaganda, which often equates pro-#Palestinian voices as '#antisemitic.'"

"A review of Kalb's X/Twitter feed shows a post wishing his followers a Happy #Hanukkah and a retweet in support of bringing the #Hamas #hostages home."

Pack it up, don’t leave it out overnight because there will be criminal activity we fear and it won’t look good’,” Hirschy Zarchi said at a lighting Wednesday night.

Zarchi, the founder and president of , said the university has asked the group to take in the menorah each night since the first lighting on campus."

    @thepoliticalcat Holy crap. I hope you're putting another one up posthaste for the last night of #Hanukkah

    Any luck with the cops finding out who it was? I hope you prosecute to the fullest extent of the law with extra sharing of those Jew-haters on social media.

    Outcome of this week's attack of a far-right antisemitic MP on Hanukkah celebration in the parliament: they've invited everyone to another event, and this time there was the President, the Marshal (speaker) and ~200 people in total :) ✡️🕎 #Poland #politics #Hanukkah
