DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS... AND WITHOUT BRAINS
Israel Without a Capital? (CAMERA)
Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders), the 1999 Nobel Peace Prize-winning medical relief organization, is currently sending out packages as part of a fundraising campaign. The packages include a request for a donation and a world map. The maps show every country in the world and every national capital ... except one. Israel -- which is identified as "Israel & Palestinian Territories" -- is the only country in the world without a capital on the map. Jerusalem is shown on the map, but is designated only as a city, not as a national capital.
By contrast, Taipei, the de facto capital of Taiwan -- which mainland China adamantly insists is part of its own sovereign territory and which most countries of the world do not technically recognize as a national capital -- is indicated on the map as the national capital of Taiwan.
The web site for the organization is www.doctorswithoutborders.org. Please draw attention to this organization's hypocrisy and the double standard it is applying by refusing to recognize Israel's capital on its maps. They can be contacted at their U.S. headquarters: 212-679-6800. Or you can submit a comment on their Web site by clicking here .
