The only “Palestine” Google knows is a town in Texas.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"palestine<\/a><\/p>\n

28 May 2016 – <\/em>Google, like the rest of the Zionist genocide machine, is making Palestine disappear<\/p>\n

I had just finished recording a 30-minute interview with the famous anti-Zionist Israeli Miko Peled. I needed 30 more minutes to fill up my one hour radio show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How about Palestinian professor Mazin Qumsiyeh?<\/p>\n

Before contacting Mazin, I needed to get my time zones straight. So I googled \u201cWhat time is it in Palestine?\u201d<\/p>\n

Here is the result:<\/p>\n

\"1-time-in-palestine<\/a>Palestine, TEXAS?!<\/p>\n

WTF?<\/p>\n

Does Google really think a town with less than 20,000 population in Texas is more important than the entire nation of Palestine?<\/p>\n

The Zionist genocide movement has spent the past century denying that there is such a country as Palestine, even as they mass murder, torture, and expel Palestinians. Now it seems that Google, following the Zionist lead, has expelled Palestine from cyberspace.<\/p>\n

Or maybe it\u2019s an innocent mistake? Maybe they always put American towns ahead of foreign countries and cities?<\/p>\n

Columbia, Missouri is an important city of more than 100,000 people\u2026and there are lots of other Columbias in the USA. So if I google \u201cWhat time is it in Columbia\u201d will Google reference Colombia the country or Columbia the important American city?<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n

\"1-colombia-time\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s Colombia the country\u2026which Google has not wiped off the map. Unlike Palestine.<\/p>\n

How about Jamaica? Will they give us the city in New York,\u00a0or the island nation?<\/p>\n

\"1-jamaica-time\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looks like\u00a0the island nation.<\/p>\n

Long story short: After\u00a0Googling around, I have discovered that when you ask what time it is in any country on earth, Google tells you \u2013 right there in that prominently-placed box above the search results.<\/p>\n

Except Palestine.<\/p>\n

Google is apparently part of the Zionist entity dedicated to wiping Palestine off the map.<\/p>\n
