Youpi children's magazine removed from sale

Le magazine Youpi dans la tourmente après une phrase sur l'état d'Israël. 

Youpi magazine in turmoil after a sentence on the state of Israel.

CRIF
The magazine intended for 5-8 years had undertaken to explain the countries of the world to the youngest. But a passage about the state of Israel has angered the Crif.

"Gustave Eiffel, the king of iron", "How does an elevator work" ... the themes addressed in the issue 352 of Youpi magazine, for the month of January 2018, had a priori no reason to be controversial.

Except that on one of the small detachable cards intended for its young readers between 5 and 8 years, a comment on the State of Israel caused a real stupefaction. "We call these 197 countries states, like France, Germany or Algeria.There are some more, but all other countries in the world do not agree that these are real country (eg the State of Israel or North Korea). "
