Google, which offers satellite photos of locations across the globe, has agreed to limit the resolution of footage of sensitive military installations and vulnerable sites in Israel. The locations are: Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, the Dead Sea, Masada, the Dimona Nuclear Research Center (DNRC), Sdot Micha (listed as a nuclear weapons base), the Kinneret, and the Mizpe Ramon crater.

EXzombie,

First, Happy New Year, and welcome you inboard.

As for the Google over US military bases, we have to keep in mind that Google obtains its satellite imagery through commercial means, just as anyone with money can. Therefore, I guess you pay more, you get/hide more.

It's the usual business/politics game. Who pays wins!
