Recognise these four maps?

I’m sure you do, for they’re all but ubiquitous – they have found their way into the handouts of anti-Israel organisations, decorate many Israel-delegitimising websites, and take pride of place on the stall the local Palestine Solidarity Campaign – a veritable witches’ coven if ever there was one – sets up in my town on a regular basis, to demonstrate to passersby, many of whom are university students, just how much “Palestinian” land those big bad Zionists have grabbed over the decades.

Not long ago, the redoubtable Elder of Ziyon, in a characteristically masterly and devastating analysis http://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2011/03/map-that-lies-and-one-that-doesnt.html showed how mendacious those maps are, and substituted these accurate maps instead, which illustrate the concessions for peace that Israel has made since 1967:

And now, over at the ever-admirable CiF Watch, the always brilliant Israeli Nurse, setting herself the task of tracking the provenance of the four mendacious maps, has with Holmesian detective skills uncovered a trail that leads to a senior cleric within the Anglican Church.

Her piece is not to be missed! http://cifwatch.com/2011/06/24/beyond-belief-political-propaganda-in-the-anglican-church/#respond
