As a jew (one who shamelessly celebrates christmas, so maybe I should shut up) I wish people would stop using jews as an excuse for this "Christmas War" or whatever. I can't speak for all or even most jews, but certainly a lot of jews understand that judaism is a minority religion representing a tiny fraction (if demographic stats are to be believed) of the American populace.
As such, I don't see any reason why Tha Joos need to be included in every single celebration of every deity everywhere. I mean, I guess it's nice that people want to sell us loads of dumb crap, but if it's going to make everyone resent the jews for stealing christ from the goyim... Sheesh! Keep your Jesus, we still have blood on our hands for the last time we killed Christ. (joking!)
