Odd. I thought Thanksgiving was a uniquely American holiday.

I doubt that citizens of India or the terrorists that perpetrated this horrendous event have a clue about the unique holiday we call Thanksgiving.

I do not think they overlooked the holiday, as Phyllis Chesler reminds us. The terrorists sent us a message, that you will no longer be safe anywhere. Islam is fighting a war against the West that has raged without pause for fourteen centuries.

I’ve heard the theory that Thanksgiving is based on the Jewish holiday Sukkot. The puritans observed some Old Testament holidays.

"Odd. I thought Thanksgiving was a uniquely American holiday." The left has been telling us for years it's all about killing Indians....
