Just a thought: without the miracle of Hanukkah there would be no Christmas.
If Antiochus had succeeded in forcing ALL Jews to assimilate, there would be no Jewish people (well, maybe some Sephardi), and thus no Joseph, Mary, or Jesus.
Ergo, it is quite stupid for any Christians to complain about the Menorah.
Indeed, I am candidly surprised that they do not celebrate the miracle --- they certainly accept that it literally occured, possibly more than most Jews.
good point... sort of like someone saying... the Egyptians suffered too much during Hotzias Mitzraim...
Excellent point.
