Edited sentence: Rabbi Elazar Bogomilsky of Northwest Friends of Chabad-Lubavitch demanded that an 8 foot tall Menorah be installed immediately adjacent to the tallest tree on display.Rather then waste significant budgetary resources fighting over a petty matter, the airport removed all 14 Christmas trees on display.The "Holiday Trees" were subsequently reinstalled on the night of December 11, 2006.The Port Authority was given 18 hours to respond.This incident aroused significant media attention, and the massive ensuing public embarrassment resulted in Rabbi Bogomilsky rescinding his litigation threat.When the airport did not immediately acquiesce to his demands, the Rabbi, though his attorney Harvey Grad, threatened the airport with a federal civil-rights lawsuit
