Petition-4: Google Earth.................... re: Jerusalem is NOT the Capital

Calling all GOOGLE EARTH users,
and anyone else for that matter:

According to Google Earth,

Jerusalem is the "Capital of Israel".

Start up Google Earth,

fly to Jerusalem / Al-Quds / Bayt al-Maqdis,
and as you approach, click on the city dot
(not on the name Jerusalem), and it is kindly
translated for you into "Capital of Israel".
Outrageous!!

I therefore urge you all to make Google aware

of this and you can do it as follows:

(should it not work,
copy/paste it into your browser bar)

This takes you to Comment/Suggestions,
and the rest should be clear.
You can copy/paste my comment below
straight into the comments box:

-------------start of comment-----------------------

"Dear Google Earth:
I wish to bring a glaring error to your attention:
Jerusalem / Al-Quds is most certainly NOT the
Capital of the Zionist state created in 1948, and
inshallah never will be, but it is here stated as
being so. No other nation on planet Earth, not

even Israel's universal protector America,
regards it as such but it is all part of the "long
slow march of Zionism", a little-by-little
conditioning of the world's popular opinion into
believing it or simply giving up and accepting it.

Before the creation of Israel there was a clear

understanding by all parties involved that, in due
course, Jerusalem would become an International
City, and that was accepted, officially at least,
by everybody, including the "founding fathers"
of Israel.
In 1967 it was of course seized and later
"formally" annexed by Israel, a totally illegal act.

As late as 1 December 2006, the UN General
Assembly voted overwhelmingly (82% in favour!)
that Israel's continued occupation of Jerusalem,
all it has done there and intends to do, is illegal
and therefore null and void according to
international law. FREE PALESTINE!!
PLEASE CORRECT THIS GLARING ERROR
IMMEDIATELY!! Thank you."

Hee hee cool! I told it to fly me to the capital of Israel and it did.

I hadn't used GE before. Thanks for the tip. Jerusalem really is a wonderful and historic city. It's great that all the religions are now protected there, unlike when Jordan was occupying, Jews were banned and synagogues were desecrated.
