The BBC’s massive time warp
The BBC continues to live in its massive time warp, believing it to be 1949. Here is a map which they present to illustrate a story about a shooting in the Old City of Jerusalem:
Note the “1949 armistice line”. Even better is the area marked “no man’s land”!
And of course they find it necessary to introduce the following into any story relating to Jerusalem:
"East Jerusalem has been occupied by Israel since 1967. Palestinians hope to establish their capital there, but Israel claims the entire city.
"Israel’s annexation of the city is not recognised by the international community."
Palestinians ‘hope’ to do a lot of things, as we know, and the BBC is behind them all the way.
