All of those are Jewish festivals.
The religion that celebrates yon kippur and Hanukkah is known as Judaism, which is the oldest religion...they also celebrate pesach, sukkot, purim and many other Jewish festivals.
Yes. Passover is called Pesach (פסח) in Hebrew. Pesach is one of 3 Pilgrimage festivals. The other two are shavu'ot (שבועות) and Sukkot (סוכות)
Channukkah, Sukkot, Pesach and Yom Kippur.
These are a mixture of major and minor Jewish festivals. Hanukkah and Purim are minor festivals (there is no prohibition on doing work on those days -- they are not holidays), where Pesach and Succot are major ones (work is prohibited -- so Jews should take them as holidays). (Note, Pesach is a week long, only the start and end are full holidays, work is permitted on the middle days.)
Pesach, Shavuot, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot.
There are about 1.5 billion Christians in the world who celebrate Christmas. But there are only about 14 million Jews in the world, most of which celebrate Hanukkah. Clearly, Christmas is more popular.
In English you say "Happy Hanukkah" In Hebrew you say "Hag Same'akh"

This date is the darkest day of the year in Israel with a waning moon and few daytime hours and 25 kislev usually falls out around the date of Dec. 21.
