The same month as Chile publicly 'recognised' the Palestinian state, Jewish organisations have condemned as misleading an advert that appeared in National Geographic Traveler magazine for implying that Palestine extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River.
The Zionist Federation, which has complained to the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA), said the advert also gave “false impressions” by describing Palestine as a country and suggesting that the city of Hebron / al-Khalil was under Palestinian control. (Of course, the city is under the control of the creeping colonialists and the army.)
The advert, which appeared in this month’s edition of the magazine, invited tourists to visit the famous city of Jerusalem, but makes no mention of Israel. In short, for better or for worse it employs unspeak from a Palestinian point-of-view.
It stated: “Palestine lies between the Mediterranean coast and the Jordan River, at the crossroads between Africa and the Middle East.”
