A Jewish man passes by a giant Hanukkah Menorah during the celebration of Hanukkah in Moscow, Dec. 13, 2009. Dozens of people huddled together in below-freezing temperatures on Sunday outside the Kremlin to watch the lighting of the menorah. The event begins an eight-day commemoration of the Jewish uprising in the second century B.C. against the Greek-Syrian kingdom, which had tried to put statues of Greek gods in the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.(Xinhua/AFP Photo) Photo Gallery>>> |
