Holiday Trees Removed From Sea-Tac
KIRO Newsradio 710 ^ | 12-9-06 | NA

Posted on 12/09/2006 3:57:21 PM PST by ECM

All Holiday trees at Sea-Tac Airport were removed this morning after several community member complaints. They say the trees don't represent all cultures and religions...The trees will not go up again...the airport policy on decorations will be reviewed after the holidays.

"I did a google search on "Central Organization for Jewish Learning " and got no hits. Is this a real organization? I want a link. Is this a muzzie plot to implicate Jews for anti-Christian actions? Frankly, I find it hard to believe that a Jewish org. would attempt such an action."

I'll be the first to blame Muslims for many of the world's problems, but some Jews seem to have a greater fear of Christians than they do Muslims. Many of the protests regarding Christmas displays are started by either atheists or Jews. If you look at the national and state ACLU organizations, you'll find that most are headed by secular Jews.

There is only way I see, for the masses to please the asses. Replace the trees at Sea Tac next year, with decorated, dyed green, stuffed jackass carcases.

This would perfectly represent the religion of the whiners.

I think it is shameful that a Chabad rabbi has had such a disgusting public temper tantrum. Chabad has put up public menorahs around the country for many years and has never threatened any Christmas displays.

It looks like Sea-Tac made the decision to remove the trees in order not to display the menorah.

It was bad form for the rabbi to threaten lawyers, and by doing so he has negated decades of good work by this fine organization.

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

Hey, Jeff. This is actually a good thing-the loonier the left gets, the better our chances are in '08..

This is sad and pathetic. We don't need any Chanukah decorations in public. Too many people think Chanukah is the Jewish Christmas, chas v'shalom.

For example, I work with many people who curse and use my Lord's name in vain.

The way to break them of that is to smile and say "He's not going to help you in THAT tone of voice" or similar. Worked in my place!

What an appropriate place to remove Christmas! - The airport, where Islam works around the clock trying to blow things up.

Good point, and for Christians it isn't about "holiday trees" either.

For Christians, it is about Christ being born.

That said, Merry Christmas and happy Chanukah.

From your keyboard to God's ears. We need to clean up our own house a little, too.

Merry Christmas.

I am so sorry. Most of the state outside of King County is not only more conservative, but much better behaved and morally sound.

This "Rabbi" is just fueling and fomenting Anti-Semitism where there may have been none before. Smooth move, "Rabbi"!

""Nothing represents all cultures and all religions."

"666 does."

666 represents the antithesis of true religion.

Jim Doyle wants to remove the "Holiday tree" and the Menorah from the capitol, but leave the Kwanza decorations and the anti-religous sign up.

We don't have any leaders. It's every man for himself in this 'Rat-infested state.

Well, his felonious, adopted sons are black you know. Guess his white daughter doesn't get any Christmas in their house. :( It must kill him to have all of those Christmas Trees on display at the Governor's Mansion this month. *Snort*

Did you read the article on his obsession with 'Festivus' and all things 'Seinfeld?' Yee Gawd. How did we get stuck with this lame-brain for another four years?

As I posted on the sister thread of this topic

Oh great. First some of the Gentiles blame us on murdering Jesus. Now some Rabbi wants to get us blamed for destroying Christmas.

Way to go Rabbi. You sure taught them a thing or two huh ?

Leave well enough alone and don't make us all look bad. I can hear it now, The Joooos did it.

As for me, this little Heeb spent all day decorating a motorcycle for a Christmas parade. Santa Claus and all.

We wish you a Merry Christmas
