The American Israel Action Coalition (AIAC) announced a petition on Sunday to compel Apple and Yahoo! to stop providing different weather reports for eastern and western Jerusalem instead of one report for the united city.
In a media release titled “Jerusalem blunder bites Yahoo! and Apple to their cores, ” AIAC Chairman Harvey Schwartz stated that “Apple’s and Yahoo!’s actions are factually incorrect, highly misleading to their users, extremely hurtful to the American Israeli community and smack of anti-Semitism.” He added, "By stating that Jerusalem is currently divided, Apple and Yahoo! are not only factually misleading their users, they are instituting a unilateral attack on Israel’s legitimacy.”
