I posted this message earlier with a really beautiful graphic, but that post is in the ether awaiting moderator approval.)
My apologies. Not sure why it didn't show up in the moderation queue. Not sure why it was flagged for review either.

I echo the sentiments of a joyous holiday to all!

Happy Hanukah!

Here's an encouraging interfaith event.

The annual lighting of the first candle of Hanukka in Berlin took place on Sunday at the Brandenburg Gate, one of Germany's most important symbols.

The torch used to light the menorah was lit by children of Syrian refugees together with Jewish children from the community. The menorah itself, which is considered to be the biggest in Europe, was lit by the German minister of culture, Professor Monika Grütters, and Rabbi Yehuda Teichtal, rabbi of the Berlin Jewish community and the Chabad emissary to the city.

Also present was the chairman of the Central Council of Muslims in Germany, Aiman Mazyek, and representatives of the mosques in the city.
