It is insulting though that they'd rather take down the trees than put up a menorah. It's not the rabbi that made them do that. They could have had both, but they decided to take the trees down. I don't think there's anything wrong with what the rabbi requested. Now...threatening to sue is another story. I don't agree with that, but a huge public airport shouldn't "support" only one religion. They could decorate with a holiday theme without just being oriented towards christmas. Just my 2 cents. (no jewish penny pinching pun intended)
