What sign is more Jewish than a Menorah?? It's really no wonder that anti-Semitism is on the rise, and this is the reason.

The same case is going on in Cranston, Ri. The Mayor invited all religious institutions to put up a display for the Christmas season. A local rabbi put up a Menorah about a week ago. Then two days ago a Catholic fellow put up a nativity scene. And the ACLU came running out of the bushes to sue the Mayor for removal of the Nativity scene.
The sad part was I heard the Rabbi interviewed and he claimed that the Menorah was not a Jewish religious symbol and thus rightly was not included in the ACLU's filing.
Left me shaking my head.

Most of the Jewish Residents in Palm Beach are pretty secular and it's no wonder they have no idea that the Mennorah is of religious significance. I bet if you asked them the story of Hannukkah they would not even know.
