1. Where are the people who were annoyed with the Rabbi at the SEa-Tac case?
2. A Dreidl or spinning top would be a secular representation of Hanukkah, akin to a Tree. A Menorah is explicitly religious.

1-They're on the multi thousand post Sea-Tac threads, though the Rabbi never asked for anyting to be taken down.
2-Given the, imo credible, history of the dreidl as a ploy against persecution, I think it's inappropriate.
3, mine-Even if it's a secular holiday season, the holiday's are religious. I think no displays on public property is a defensible position, but if you're going to have them, why not a Nativity Scene and a Menorah.

It is both secular and religious. The menorah is also a national symbol of the Jewish people-religious and non religious.
Nevertheless as an Orthodox Jew I say let there be creches and/or Menorahs in every town that wants them and f-ck the JINO's and formerly Christian athiests that block them.
Please just have the heads covered on the Jewish characters in the nativity scenes.
