Google Earth View of Israel Highlights Palestinian "Nakba"
[ Jerusalem Post] Stephanie Rubenstein - On Google Earth, the message "Nakba - The Palestinian Catastrophe" appears when users scroll over the orange dots that speckle locations across the entire map of Israel. "Israel is being specifically targeted. No one else is running a campaign against a country like this," said Andre Oboler, a post-doctoral fellow at Bar-Ilan University and Legacy Heritage Fellow at the NGO Monitor watchdog group. "The core layer is what people get when they download and install Google Earth," Oboler said. "It is there by default. The problem we have here is that the core layer is being used to promote propaganda."
