The traditional Christmas mass and prayers will still take place, but without Christmas trees or festive lights.
The root of all modern-day evils for the new left is colonialism, and Israel is, they claim, a colonialist power.
Will we sell our souls to claim the moral high ground?
“This is in fact the actualization of a globalized intifada through violence,” said the president of Federation CJA of the sharp spike in antisemitism since Oct. 7.
“We knew there was an urgent need to replace ambulances that were stolen and destroyed. To know ours is part of this historic effort is incredibly gratifying,” said Pastor Larry Huch.

On his official Twitter account, the President of Israel, Isaac Herzog wrote: “My brothers and sisters, even today, with all the complexity, and I do not for a moment ignore the complexity - the historical connection of the Jewish people to Hebron, to the Cave of the Patriarchs, to the heritage of mothers and fathers is unquestionable. Recognition of this affinity should be above all controversy.” (Photo: Isaac Herzog/Twitter)

(JNS) Israeli President Isaac Herzog celebrated the first night of Hanukkah at the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, where he noted the city’s “unquestionable” Jewish connection.
“The historical connection of the Jewish people to Hebron, to the Cave of the Patriarchs, to the heritage of mothers and fathers is unquestionable,” said Herzog, further asserting that “recognition of this connection should be beyond all controversy.”
In his address, Herzog also spoke of his family’s connection to Hebron, noting that his great-great-grandmother once lived in the city and survived the 1929 Hebron massacre, when more than 65 Jews were killed by Arab rioters.
“I have no doubt that she would have been very moved by the fact that one of her descendants is lighting Hanukkah candles in the Cave of the Patriarchs as the president of the state of Israel,” he said.
The Cave of the Patriarchs is one of the holiest sites in Judaism, where it is believed to be the burial site of Abraham and his wife, Sarah, as well as other biblical patriarchs and matriarchs, including Isaac, Rebecca, Jacob and Leah. Muslims also consider it to be holy and have a mosque on the site.
As such, the site, as well as the city of Hebron as a whole, has been a significant flashpoint within the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Israel gained control over the city during the Six-Day War in June 1967. As part of the Hebron protocol of 1997, the city is divided into two sectors with H1 controlled by the Palestinian Authority and H2, roughly 20 percent of the city, under Israeli control.
Joining Herzog in the ceremony was the head of Hebron’s Jewish community Hillel Horowitz, Kiryat Arba Mayor Eliyahu Libman, several prominent rabbis, senior military and police officials, as well as dozens of local residents.

Religious Zionist Party leader Bezalel Smotrich tweeted: “President Herzog, in the name of the people of Israel throughout the generations, in the name of our fathers and holy mothers, I want to say thank you.”
Nevertheless, the visit was protested by left-wing politicians and activists. The left-wing NGO Peace Now, accompanied by Meretz Party Knesset member Mossi Raz, gathered near the cave screaming “shame” as the president made his way into the case,” reported Israel Hayom.
Breaking the Silence, a group of former Israeli combat soldiers who oppose Israel’s policies in the West Bank, accused Herzog of “giving an official seal of approval to this obscene reality and the people perpetuating it.”
