Paris' Orly airport shop locates Ben Gurion Airport in 'Occupied Palestine'

World Israel News reports that an Israeli couple who were shopping at a duty free store located in Paris' Orly Airport were disturbed to discover their receipt that was handed to them located Israel's Ben Gurion Airport in "Occupied Palestinian Territories." This was originally reported by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA).

Ben Gurion Airport is actually located in Lod, just south of Tel Aviv and clearly not classified as disputed territory, but you know how the so-called Palestinians think: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free." So all of Israel, as far as they see, belongs to them, in spite of history, in spite of truth.

As it turns out, the incident occurred in October at the Royal Quartz store, which is operated by Galeries Lafayette, France’s premiere department store, and is not an independent establishment owned by some flaky Palestinian who wants Israel destroyed.

According to JTA, Arthur Lemoine, a Galeries Lafayette spokesman said the mistake on the receipt was being addressed after they received a complaint by the Simon Wiesenthal Center's director for international relations, Shimon Samuels.

But like we see in our own "mistakes" in the media, the "mistakes" always seem to go in one direction. In this case it's against Israel. In U.S. media "mistakes" it's against Trump or conservatives. Then the story/receipt is corrected but after it has done the damage.

In the past, France has required special labeling for products from Judea and Samaria, but discontinued the practice due to a discrimination lawsuit targeting the practice.

The campaign to label products from Judea and Samaria, portions of Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights was sanctioned by the European Commission, which issued guideline in 2015 related to the practice.

France and the EU in general has become increasingly anti-Semitic, not that it's a new phenomenon, but it's certainly more visible. We Christians and Jews believe in the same G_d, the only difference is in the way Jesus is perceived by each group.
