Search the CNN Weather page for “Jerusalem,” and here are the results:

Clicking “Jerusalem, null” brings you to the page for Israel, of course.

Could be an innocent mistake, you say? But that’s not all—not by a long shot. Their “Weather Location Selector” lists Gaza and the West Bank as countries separate from Israel—and their list of Israeli cities includes several Arab villages which have not existed since 1948.

And in a related outrage, another reader emailed about Samsung’s list of support centers in the Middle East—which includes the imaginary country of “Palestine,” but not Israel.
