The Seattle airport took down 15 Christmas trees that have been displayed at this time of year for the past 10 years. Airport authorities removed them after an ultimatum from a local Rabbi who wanted an 8-foot Menorah and a public lighting ceremony or he would sue. Spokesmen for the airport said, “This is their busiest time of year and they don’t have time to add a fair representation of all cultures, her department decided to take down all of the decorations, review their policies, and decide if they need to make a change for next year.”
Past legal rulings have stated that public property in the US must have what is called the three reindeer rule, any religious representation on public property must also have representation of other religions.
Could any Muslim Imam threaten Seattle airport to sue without Bush calling him an Islamo-Fascist and his Homeland Security prosecuting him as a terrorist?
