Reenactment. Like Civil War reenactors. Without the stamp of approval of Agudath Israel in the US and in Israel, it’s just play-acting.

Wasn’t the Romans they were dealing with......at this point in history these were the Syrian/Greeks

The palestinians want the Jews in Israel to “share” Jerusalem (before trying to wipe them out). Fair being fair, the palestinians should share the Dome of The Rock and Temple grounds with the Jews. Let’s see how far fairness goes with muslim animals.

The lighting of the Hanukkah menorah for eight days is based on the story of how, after defeating the Romans... That's pretty funny. Who writes this stuff? A fellow named Adam Eliyahu apparently. It must be a prophecy regarding Edom then.
