Original Note:
Purim has already occurred this year - on 23-24 March 2024. https://www.chabad.org/holidays/purim/default_cdo/jewish/Purim.htm Haman wasn't a Persian king, he was vizier to King Ahasuerus (Hebrew: אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹש, thought by modern scholars to be Xerxes I.) https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Haman_(Bible) Griffin is trying to foment hatred between Jews and Iranians by mentioning Purim.
