See Israelinurse's take down of the Guardian's latest contributing travel writer, and anti-Israel activist, Sarah Irving, for a complete picture of "10 highlights of Palestine", Nov. 18th, but the following passage from Irvin g's travel log deserves a bit more infamy.

Ooops!  It seems like our former International Solidarity Activist volunteer forgot one quite large country.

Interestingly, a few days after her Guardian piece Irving retweeted the following:

#BREAKING: Rafa borders Egypt!
