Yes, I heard about that incident too - and now the poor tree seems to have become a transient, being moved from pillar to post in less-visible parts of the court building since the ruling that the judge was wrong to order its removal.
Me? I'd have put up a menorah and a dreidl as well as the tree
But there you are...
Anyway, I liked this very much indeed. A really unusual perspective on the situation, and actually quite poignant (in a vaguely tongue-in-cheek way). Thanks for writing it!
