Since when has war not been awful? I don’t remember anyone complaining when Hezbollah attacks Israel though.
You mean to tell us you were living under a rock when there was an international outcry agaist Hezbollah attacking Israel?
Apple has removed most of the towns and villages in Lebanon from Apple maps?

#143This reminds me a bit of the Gulf of America fiasco from last year where if you changed your location to outside the US it would go back to showing Gulf of Mexico. I'm not sure why they would do this for US users unless the US government requested it.
Google maps has done this forever. A good chunk of countries have disputed territories, and never in human history there has been a "universal" map that everybody agrees on.

Actually I can't because I've never seen if Apple ever had them in the first place.
It sounds like a great opportunity to ask if people have used Apple Maps in Lebanon before.

#146Multiple commenters here are asking if the towns and villages were ever included in Apple maps in the first place, and some people are saying we should obviously assume they were. However, a quick search reveals at least a few people claiming that Apple Maps has always been empty for Lebanon outside of major cities (and at least one commenter says they are Lebanese): https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/1sjmrol/co…

Still odd because OSM has all these towns and Apple appears to be using the OSM street network, but not showing the labels

Where was this outcry? Hezbollah made northern Israel uninhabitable for years.
