    Did you see latma's megillah reading? Classic! Don't know if there is one with english subtitles though.

    I dont know. its at a mention of artisans and craftsmen. the only thing I could think of is that it was at a time when the Nazi party was becoming poplar and perhaps in tel Aviv at the Purim parade they were going to spoof something of the Nazis.
