The Trees Return To Seattle Airport

J.J. Jackson* | December 12, 2006 

SEATAC, Wash. Dec 12, 2006 (AP)— Christmas trees are going back up at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Pat Davis, president of the Port of Seattle commission, which directs airport operations, said late Monday that maintenance staff would restore the 14 plastic holiday trees, festooned with red ribbons and bows, that were removed over the weekend because of a rabbi’s complaint that holiday decor did not include a menorah.

Airport managers believed that if they allowed the addition of an 8-foot-tall menorah to the display, as Seattle Rabbi Elazar Bogomilsky had requested, they would also have to display symbols of other religions and cultures, which was not something airport workers had time for during the busiest travel season of the year, Airport Director Mark Reis said earlier Monday.

Let me translate this. The airport was inundated with lots of angry phone calls from people that did not take too kindly to this action so they decided to return the trees.

The airport should be thankful that Christians don’t generally act like the average Islamist in the Middle East. Because if we did, the airport would have been burned to the ground and all the workers there hung and/or shot.
