...and Long Life to all the wonderful Jewish people of the world, to the Bolsheviks of old Soviet Union, to everyone supporting AIPAC, and to the state of Israel!

boudicca: Don't you think bolshevik-revolution was hilarious? Must be my sense of humour if you don't :/
Or don't you think Israel's "foreign policy" is hilarious?

As a matter of fact, I do. In the same kind of awful way that nuclear armageddon is (not sarcasm).itnAklipse wrote:boudicca: Don't you think bolshevik-revolution was hilarious? Must be my sense of humour if you don't :/

Having said that, I would genuinely wish a very happy Hannukah to the majority of Jews around the world, who are not responsible for drafting Israel's foreign policy (or policy at home for that matter).

Happy Channukah (that's how it always used to be spelled on the signs by the sinagogue near where my grandparents lived.)

I have only the vaguest idea why this thread was started, since I have been intentionally ignoring all newspapers, news websites, and news programs (with the occasional exception of News Night on BB2) for quite some time now.
Do I want to remain ignorant on this?

But whatever the motives for starting the thread, as we have a Christmas thread which is ostensibly a Christian festival, we may as well have one for the Jewish festival of Hannukah.
Should I start a Happy Kwanzaa thread too?

Aye, most of what cynics call "political correctness" is in fact an attempt not to offend other people.
