Leading Publishing House Wipes Israel Off Its Map
Israel National News ^ | 12/31/2014 | Ari Yashar

One of the world's largest publishing houses is distributing school Atlases in Middle Eastern countries which totally erase any reference to the State of Israel, it has been revealed.

HarperCollins' subsidiary Collins Bartholomew, which specializes in maps, are selling "Collins Middle East Atlases" to English-speaking schools in the Gulf states which depict Jordan and Syria extending all the way to the Mediterranean Sea.

The Bible prophet Balaam was paid to curse Israel by the King of Moab (Jordan). As he got up on a mountain and looked over the camp of Israel, he prophesied that the Nation of Israel would not be counted among the nations:

Numbers 23:8 How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD hath not defied? 9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations. 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!

Additionally, the prophet Joel said that it was this sin, and the presumption of the world powers to divide up land of Israel that would bring about the final world war...

Joel 3:1 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

What’s the reasoning behind this? I don’t understand.

I do admit that is something of a change. Back when I was a youngin going to school in Abu Dhabi in the 80s the maps did not say Israel , but did indicate the territory. It was labeled ‘Zionist Entity’.

To placate their Arab clients, who greatly outnumber the Jewish ones.

Well of course, for muzzie schoolchildren.

It makes sense, too — their Israel is imaginary anyway.

They will not be able to ignore Israel after the Psalm 83 War. Israel’s boundaries will be greatly expanded. Its immediate neighbors will be resoundingly crushed.

I predict September, 2015.

I agree that the Psalms 83 will result in an increase in Israeli territory. If you read Jeremiah 48-49 it will also result in the destruction of Amman Jordan and possibly Damascus (Isaiah 17). I am not convinced that it has to happen prior to Sept 2015.

I personally believe that Ezekiel 38 precedes and facilitates the rise of the Anti-Christ which will then make a 7 year agreement with Israel. So we have a ways to go yet, however the Rapture of the Church could come any time. The best book in the world on Bible Prophecy is Arnold Fructenbaum's "Footsteps of the Messiah"

HarperCollins
Wikipedia
"In 1989, Collins was bought by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, and the publisher was combined with Harper & Row, which NewsCorp had acquired two years earlier."

In the liberal “mind” Israel should not exist. Instead the whole area should be infested with screaming bearded savages who lop heads off for fun.

“’Who Controls Your Mind?’ 2013,” from the wiki choice of Islamic terrorists and neo-Nazis, Metapedia!

Leading Publishing House Wipes Israel Off Its Map

So?

Many businesses cater to delusion in pursuit of profits. Publishing houses can be prostitutes too. Cater wherever the market leads.

This area of the world has had endemic delusions forever. So long as they keep the 7th Century out of my face, I don't really care what aberrations they enjoy.

I just take comfort that if they market certain of the products in the U.S., they will simply need to have Saudi Arabia or other oil-rich koranimals subsidizing them. Or go broke.

Collins Bartholomew, the subsidiary of HarperCollins that specialises in maps, told The Tablet that including Israel would have been “unacceptable” to their customers in the Gulf and the amendment incorporated “local preferences”.

http://www.thetablet.co.uk/news/1579/0/publisher-harpercollins-omits-israel-from-school-atlas-to-meet-local-preferences-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“The decision to omit Israel on the map has sparked anger on social media, with some Twitter users calling for the boycott of HarperCollins.”

Hmmm...In the world of publishing, HarperCollins is “unacceptable.” Boycotter’s “local preference”: It doesn’t exist.

No amount of appeasement is ever enough to satisfy barbarians.

The West has lost the will to survive.

I despise the following and am not promoting it. This is to show evidence of neo-Nazism and radical Islamist propaganda at Metapedia (following exact quotation accessed from Metapedia at 12:15 AM, Central Time, 31DEC14), where the chart that you posted is linked from.

From Metapedia:
Conservapedia is a wiki-website, promoting a creationist, neoconservative, laissez-faire capitalist, and an evangelical Protestant worldview. The main target audience for Conservapedia are creepy American Evangelical Protestants (a cringeworthy religion fabricated in the 18th century at the earliest), who care nothing for the European race or the conservation of true European values and culture. The website is strongly pro-Jewish and pro-Israeli, listing patriotic liberation groups like Hamas and Hezbollah as "terrorist organisations." It also claims without evidence that the NSDAP "murdered six million Jewish civilians."

I went to school in Abu Dhabi in the 80’s and recall all the maps on the walls either having Israel scratched out or depicting the whole area as Palestine. I recall customs at the airport going through one’s books to make sure there were no maps referencing Israel. I don’t see how this would shock anyone as this has been the standard my entire life.
