>>12187299No, kikel means circle in Yiddish
They signed with a circle because X looks too much like a cross, they even use an upside down T instead of + in maths. For example in this picture 5 (inverted T which means plus) 9 = 14
The usual explanation for this practice is that it avoids the writing of a symbol "+" that looks like a Christian cross.[16] Unicode has this symbol at position U+FB29 ﬩ hebrew letter alternative plus sign.[17]
I don’t know if the regular plus sign is “forbidden by law,” as some of the more rabid anti-Jewish sites claim. (From one post – don’t read on if you’re easily offended! – “The word “Kike” derives from the propensity Eastern European Jews had to write a circle (Yiddish. “kikel”) instead of a cross (“X”) on immigration papers, when entering the US at Ellis Island in Upper New York Bay early last century… So it’s not surprising to find the Kikes refuse to allow the use of the plus sign (“+”) on a computer keyboard in schools and universities in the antichristian, apartheid state of Israel.”)
