Is it a fasting one?

No. If it was a fasting one, why would they be wishing us a happy Tu B'Shvat?

No, but the Parasha where we read about that was this past Shabbos (Shabbos Shirah).

Why can't fasting be a happy day?

You obviously don't know Judaism very well. We're the People of the Fork - when we're happy, we eat. ;)

No.

God willed moses to split the sea. God split it through moses?
Muslims fasted last thursday and friday, because they said this was the time in which the miracle occured and it is said that the Jews used to fast it, so Muhammad ordered the muslims to fast it plus another day either before or after. So it is at a different time of year completely?
Is it suggested that one should fast on their birthday in Judaism?
