Muslim Association of Britain Seething Over Israeli Tourism

The radical Islamic front group calling itself the Muslim Association Of Britain has launched a campaign to have Israeli tourism advertisements removed from London subway stations. The hypocrisy is stunning, of course — because even though it’s a regular feature of Palestinian propaganda to publish maps of the state of Israel and label the whole region as “Palestine,” they’re complaining that the maps on these tourism posters don’t recognize their nonexistent country: Israeli Tourism Adverts Wipe Palestine From the Map - Take action now!

Posters have recently appeared in London Underground tube stations advertising Israel as a tourist destination. The map on the advert depicts Israel as incorporating the West Bank and East Jerusalem, the Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights.

Please write to London Underground, the Advertising Standards Agency and CBS Outdoors – the company which manages the poster sites – asking for the removal of these posters, which deliberately deny the existence of Palestine. Contact details are at the bottom of this email.

A draft letter is included below. You can use this letter as it is, or take the information from it to write your own.
