    But diplomatic relations between Egypt and Israel may be plummeting to a new low after a Cairo airline decided to wipe the Jewish state off the map

    Although Egypt Air flies regularly to Israel’s capital, Tel Aviv, through a subsidiary, the destination does not appear on any of the airline’s route maps.

    According to the website Ynetnews, Israel has been swallowed up by its Arab neighbour, Jordan, whose border now stops at the Mediterranean Sea.

    ‘The airline’s subsidiary, Air Sinai, flies to Israel regularly, but customers seeking flights to Ben Gurion National Airport will have a hard time finding them,’ the website reports.

    ‘On the map are the names of the Mideast capitals – Amman, Beirut, and Damascus – but Israel is nowhere to be found.’

    The German airline Hapag Lloyd Flug also does not contain the country Israel in its GPS System even when the its flights fly into Tel Aviv. I believe they purchase their GPS systems from an Arab source such as Saudia Arabia and are not even aware of the political ramifications of having Israel wiped off their GPS.

    I tried Egypts air’s destination information where they tell you to type in the destination to get info about it. I typed Tel Aviv, but-as reported- no there is no such place.

    If someone goes to their website looking for a flight to Israel, they will think they don’t fly there and will go with a different airline. They are prepared to lose money in their hatred for us.

    The nazis y”shm gave up many resources in ww2 just to use them to wipe out a people who were not a threat to them.
