No offense but who is this article aimed at? Christians or dumb Jews?I would be greatly surprised if one American in ten knows this stuff.
He also doesn't get into the aftermath, with the descendants of the Maccabees, ruling as kings, quickly deteriorating to the level of ordinary Oriental despots, complete with harem intrigue, murdering of relatives, etc.

*** I would be greatly surprised if one American in ten knows this stuff. *** Yeah, you're prolly right, unfortunately. Thanks to the dumbing down of America and from removing 'religion from the public square'.
When one is attacked or 'banned' all are effected. And when even talking about any religious custom in public is verbotten, we all lose.
