AP Corrects 'Palestine' in Seeds of Peace Story

After communication with CAMERA staff, AP editors yesterday corrected an incorrect reference to "Palestine" in an article about the Seeds of Peace camp in Maine. CAMERA's Israel office reviews wire service stories as they appear on the wire, and therefore is able to prompt corrections of errors before they are printed in newspapers around the world. The error and the updated corrected version follow:

Error (AP, Jerry Harkavy, 6/29/09): The 147 [Seeds of Peace] campers at the first of this summer's two sessions are from Afghanistan, Egypt, India, Israel, Jordan, Pakistan, Palestine and the United States.

Correction (Updated story 6/29/09): The 147 campers at the first of this summer's two sessions are from Afghanistan, Egypt, India, Israel, Jordan, Pakistan, the West Bank and the United States.

That's that shithole that spends kabillions in aid building rockets instead of infrastructure, right?

So what?

I recognize Palestine. Israel can deny it all they want but there is & always will be a Palestine.
What do you think it was called before 1948?
