Christmas is a secular holiday in the United States. Jewish and
Muslim and other religious holidays are not. If one religious holiday
is acknowledge, they all must be. Christmas is not included because
it's not really a religious holiday in the U.S. (really just a time to
have parties and food and presents).
Of course, with events like this, antisemitism is only encouraged, or
sometimes perhaps even engendered where it didn't exist before.
