Seattle airport removes Christmas trees to avoid lawsuit
Advertisements [?]
SEATAC, Washington (AP) -- All nine Christmas trees have been removed from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport instead of adding a giant Jewish menorah to the holiday display as a rabbi had requested.

This really stinks. They don't want to "clutter up" their airport with things like menorahs, or any other non-Christian religious symbol, but they have no problem putting up 9 Christmas trees to begin with? They are begging for a lawsuit with this mess.
