Deleting Israel from the map



The above is the map taken from Noble Caledonia's tour by land and sea described as 'FROM THE NILE TO DAMASCUS'. Can you spot what country doesn't warrant a mention on the map? Yes Israel, why?


Oddly, or not, Israel is also missing from the map for the 'PASSAGE THROUGH ANTIQUITY' tour, how strange...

I have sent them an email asking why. Will let you know if I get a response.

I know what they will say - "we only mark countries that we visit, look no Lebanon or Gaza". The trouble is I don't believe them and maybe they should admit that the reason they don't include a visit to any Israeli sites is that Saudi Arabia bans anyone with an Israeli stamp in their passport from visiting their multi-cultural haven (joke).

They make Gaza look like a separate country, having its own outline. That also suggests where they're coming from on this.

Mr. Goat,

Presumebly it would be easy to find a map in their brochure which does show a country which they don't visit !

A very quick glance at the brochure shows a tour starting in Norway, sailing round Spitsbergen and back to Norway. No mention of landing in Greenland, but it is on the map.
I must get out more, I am turning into an anorak, to use a Greenland Eskimo word !

This was a great catch by you. Perhaps, a look into the future that is near. Not sure what will happen when america is gone. However, is real will prob not survive.
