Multiple incidents of vandalism and antisemitic attacks on menorahs have occurred during Hanukkah celebrations in various locations, including Union Square, Santa Monica, Poland, North London, and the US. The incidents involved the tearing down, desecration, and smashing of menorahs, accompanied by threatening and abusive behavior toward Jews. These events have been linked to a spike in antisemitism, with some incidents involving the use of Palestine stickers and chants. The attacks have been widely condemned as acts of antisemitism and are not related to any ongoing war.

Christians will destroy a satanic statue but won't touch the giant menorahs erected all over their country, which represent Jewish Supremacy, and are all a giant "fuck you" to Christianity, Christ, Mary, the Saints, and all the non-Jews of the world.

At last night’s Hanukkah celebration in Union Square, some folks started shouting “Free Palestine” at us. This was one night after the Lake Merritt menorah was torn down. Harassing Jews celebrating a holiday has nothing to do with the war & everything to do with antisemitism.
