HarperCollins is coming under fire after it was discovered that English-language atlases it sells to schools in the Middle East do not show Israel.
The publishing house, one of the biggest in the world, has defended the decision, saying that including Israel would have been “unacceptable” to customers in the region and that the change reflected “local preferences.”
The map shows Jordan and Syria extending all the way to the Mediterranean, but also shows the West Bank and Gaza. Read more at The Telegraph.

So basically it’s inaccurate! Can they be trusted that their other products are accurate!??
Every yeshiva and every gurls school around the world owes it to their children to to teach them accurate info2 and as such all HarperCollins material should be discarded as inaccuracies are present in their materials. THEY CAN’T BE TRUSTED!
Does HarperCollins also sell math books to that region that contain equations such as 1+1=3?
The world is filled with Sheker. Note that the leftist educators in the U.S.A. feed children radical leftist views as mainstream information.
Guess the politicization of education in maps is one of the oldest deceptions in the “book”
I want a “Harpers Collins Lies” bumper sticker
Normally, the enemy wants to lie, but in this case, he also wants to scratch.
Rights to the future are not taken away.
Boycott.
and perhaps they will put the north pole on the equator if people complain it’s too cold. years from now, someone will use that map, chas v’shalom, to ‘prove’ that Israel never existed. how dare they!!!
Anyone know where I can send them an email, to the right people over there?
