I don't know if Newsweek is as eager to be rid of Israel as "The State of Islam" is these days or not, but on its interactive online map of the mid east, the news mag is featuring a map of Israel labeled as "Palestinian Territory."

Once you click over to the Newsweek map, holding the mouse over the tiny red shape north of Egypt will bring up a popup map showing Israel clearly labeled as "PalestinianTerritory."

Here is a screen shot of the current map on Newsweek's site:

I'm also looking for where I can find some ammo to hit him on Muslims being the overwhelming majority responsible for terrorist acts and/or evidence of the evil of the Koran and Mohammed.

wow. What more does anyone need than to look at everysingle hotspot in the world today and at least one side is muslim if not both.

The most disturbing thing to me is not that Newsweek labels Israel as 'Palestinian Territory', but that there are still people who buy Newsweek.

Interesting that the ‘west bank’ is missing from that image.

Does anyone have a link/site with a concise explanation of the creation of Israel and the fallacy of "Palestine?"

There have been a couple of really good threads about Israel/Palestine, but I honestly can't recall the titles. :(

The Obambi administration is going to sell Israel out to Iran, to the Gaza Palestinians and to Hamas terrorists. The Obambi administration will be the instrument for the destruction of the state of Israel.

Map of 'Palestine'.



Notice that the 'west bank' is clearly show where the 'Palestine territory' map shows a blank space.

sheez...

Right. The maps shows muslim nations and how they deal with religious tolerance. Jordan was left uncolored as well. Which causes me to ask, what religion does Jordan claim?

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Does it include Syria and Jordan?

[ravingnutter]

OMG...I thought that cover was a joke until I went to that thread!

They don’t call it Newsweak for nothing.

Just for the sake our continuing education, perhaps Newsweek has an updated map of the US?

Perhaps they published this ad...

[a fool in paradise]

YOU buy Newsweak and Time-Lies with your tax dollars. For the public library, school libraries, etc.

Defund the Left. Boycott NOW.

[a fool in paradise]

To hear the Islamists say it, it’s because the Jews get nations to fight for them (including by faking the 9-11 attacks).

On the Newsweek map, the Palestinian territories are in red while Israel in gray. On your map, Israel is red, and it doesn't show the Palestinian territories. In other words it is completely inside out to what Newsweek depicts.

they've changed it. I went earlier and it was like the above picture. Congrats to all! We won again!
