Because Rosh Hashanah and Ramadan is advertised in shops everywhere? Or there are Ramadan specials of TV-shows and whatnot? Not to mention the war on Rosh Hashanah that people are going bananas about.
No, there are clear reasons why he'd pick on Christmas instead. The dates for Ramadan and Rosh Hashanah change each year, so he can't make jokes that refer to the date, which throws out most of his tweets... and I can't think of anything like Rudolf The Red-Nosed Reindeer equivalency either, nor would jokes about the commercialisation of these holidays be relevant either.
Clearly, Lou, there are good reasons why Christmas got picked on, and not those, both in terms of the kinds of jokes he pulled, and with regards to how prevalent these holidays are in his and everybody else in the western world's lives.
As for the general claim: Jews don't go around proselytising, they don't jockey for power in courts in the same way the Christians do in the US, which is also the case for Moslems. There's a plethora of reasons why Christianity is most picked on... but you're straight up wrong that there people don't tend to pick on Jews or Moslems with regards to the absurdity of their beliefs. Weirdly, though, one finds that each of these major religious groups tend to consider themselves targeted more and more unfairly than the others. Curious.
