...Toyota's software does have a problem, it would be a serious issue, because the computer module has gradually taken over many functions once controlled by mechanical cables. In fact, electronic controls now handle all the engine functions of modern automobiles, including the opening and closing of the throttle, the injection of fuel, the firing of spark plugs, even the operation of the catalyst limiting the engine's pollution.

While a broad array of Israelis are either totally against dividing Jerusalem or want to expand Israeli settlements ahead of any peace deal, no country in the world - including the U.S. - recognizes East Jerusalem as Israeli territory. (Even George W. Bush, America's most ardently pro-Israel President, refrained from moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.)
