Sweden: Cooking show pulled for describing Jerusalem as 'heart of Israel'


Jerusalem is the heart of Judaism.  It is the heart of Israel.

Sweden would like to deny that fact.

Via YNet (h/t On Elpeleg):

Broadcaster TV4 pulled a cooking show after complaints by Palestinian organizations.  The episode, which was broadcast several times, was filmed in Israel, and the host describes Jerusalem as the 'heart of Israel'.

Following complaints by Palestinian organizations, TV4 announced that since they do not want to offend their viewers, they will not broadcast it again. The show was removed from the online archive.
