A widely circulated e-mail charges that the web site of Nivea skincare products has "removed" Israel from its country list.
In fact, as of August 2011 Israel appears on Nivea's web site with a dedicated link under their country listings and an Israel-specific section.
The company has indicated that logistics, not anti-Israel hostility, had caused the original omission. In addition, the company has said that it will soon be launching an Israeli site in Hebrew and in English.
