The Rabbi is saying he is "devastated, shocked and appalled at the decision" of the Airport. Maybe he should of thought about his actions before making his call to his bloodsucking lawyer. The Port of Seattle is saying they will meet on this Tuesday - I suggest getting on the phone and call them telling them to reconsider. And It would be nice to see people at the airport with their own trees. Stand there with your tree and dare them to take it from you.

And where is the non-elected Govenor in all of this? Why is she not speeking up in defence of the Tree displays?

Navy, are you coming to our chapter Christmas party? This weekend. :)

Stupid situation. But I don't blame the Rabbi. I blame the weak owners of "public" places for giving in to all requests to eliminate Christian symbols.

I was just clicking on the key word "ISLAM", and noted this thread came up.

WHY?

[ThreeYearLurker]

When I was in college, my frat was across the street from the CHABAD House, (The jerks who sued about the Christmas Trees). One prank we pulled was to put a sign out of their window, that said "SU", so when combined with their sign, became SUCHABAD HOUSE. It is time to call my brothers into action!

I wondered the same thing. She's probably busy with her "Holiday" shopping and can't be concerned about such mundane matters. Anyways, Sea-Tac better put those trees back up ... NOW!

I dunno--I might be scared of that lawyer he hired to make his "nice request" to the airport...

"We thought the Port was going to make the right decision to support diversity and Hanukkah," Stein said. "The lawsuit was only a way to get their attention."

If this was really the outcome the rabbi thought would occur, he hadn't thought this through very carefully.

[Mamzelle]

Say, who's this Mitchell Stein mentioned in the article? He basically verified that indeed there was a lawsuit threatened.

Local Imam says "inshallah" over Rabbi's threatened lawsuit.

Attorney Harvey Grad is a Democrat donor.

i was raised jewish,and today i was in a shop that is owned and largely patronized by jewish people because they sell a lot of traditional foods for the holidays-the consensus(unanimous)was basically this:some people don't know when to shut up and whatever this rabbi's motive ,threatening a lawsuit was going to piss off a lot of people for no good reason-if this rabbi is connected with the aclu then he should be ashamed of himself for that alone-i don't know what good can come of any small segment of the population being perceived as trying to intimidate the majority-i saw him on tv and instinctively dislaiked him-his lawyer came across as a scumbag,plain and simple-i'm sick and tired of the yearly war at the holiday season-we can largely thank the aclu for this

Look what happens when people do not think - both the Rabbi and the airport drones - nonsense.
What if we have Abe Lincoln's day and never mention the Emancipation Proclamation, Gettysburg Address or show pictures of Honest Abe. He'd roll in his grave as he is with the ANTI-AMERICAN decision SEATAC has made.
Boycott SEATAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
