Wow, she was SHOCKED that Christians wouldn't just throw their songs into the trash for the sake of one stupid hyper-sensitive bitch like herself. And yes, I am a JEW saying this. This woman makes me want to vomit. Why not just tell them that "Dreidel" is pap,and suggest more religious Jewish songs? Perhaps insert some material in the handouts with the story of Chanukka and involve your children?
NOOOOO, this liberal wench's only solution is to CENSOR, just because she is either too dim-witted or guilty to teach her son the proud history and legacy of the Jewish people, and why Christians are not only NOT a threat, but among the greatest friends of Israel that exist. That Christians are the reason why this most amazing nation of America exists in the first place. And why it is truly the only safe haven in the world for Jews. It was CHRISTIANS who made that possible, Judy. So as one Jew to another so-called Jew, kinly do us a favor, and STFU!
As someone who attended the school district she's talking about in the 1960's-70's, I have to say we didn't learn Dreidel Dreidel Dreidel. We learned Hava Nageela, and did the Hanukkah celebrations in elementary school to learn more about our Jewish classmates. I find it hard to believe the the schools have become LESS diverse since then rather than more. I know my children, in school there, had a primarily secular experience, leving me to teach them my religion outside of school.
Well put! The Jewish people in our community have not only done that-- Chanukka songs are included with a selection of Christmas songs, religious and secular, at our local public high school -- but they've gone a step further and volunteer to staff hospitals and other places relying on volunteers on Christmas Day so their Christian friends and neighbors can enjoy a day off. And, yes, the Christians reciprocate during Jewish holidays.
