    But are they aware of the significance behind the Hanukkha celebration? I mean, you wouldn't be celebrating Christmas if you learned Christ was actually Satan himself....would you?

    Again, Jews celebrate Hanukkah for their military victory in 165 BC over their hated enemy, the Greek-descended king Antiochus IV of Syria. You can spin that any way you choose, but most Orthodox jews and Zionists know for what and why they celebrate Hanukkah.
