CUFI (Christians United for Israel) web designers use PhotoShop in their website’s logo to do what they’ve not yet been able to accomplish in the physical world: scrub muslims from the face of it. There logo features a serene little photograph of the Wailing Wall, but behind it sits a garden and no trace of the Al-Aqsa mosque. To me this just seems lazy. I mean, if you’re going to change things, why not just use the PhotoShop cloning tool to rebuild the whole temple? Oh, they’re against cloning. I forgot. — link.

Update: Christians Untied for Israel claims to not know what Jerusalem looks like.

I guess for them it really doesn’t matter since they’re waiting for some massiah to come and “cleanse” it anyway. After being called out by numerous bloggers for its strange PhotoShop remapping of the Old City, CUFI has returned the Dome of the Rock back to its original place, where once stood a temple. According to this post, CUFI executive director David Brog, CUFI “was unaware that the photo was altered when it was selected for the Web site.” Yeah.

Here are both images from the CUFI site. Note that the sunny rays of God’s Joy are now gone in the fixed version, but the ominous clouds of God’s Coming Wrathful Judgment remain.
