The adverts, running on EL AL's website, stated: "Now, more than ever is 
  the time to come to Israel. Come express your solidarity with Israel. Fly 
  with EL AL and receive 3 or 4 day car rental for free!"
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/hertz-withdraws-from-israeli-airline-deal-1418248.html"><P>
The advert had a clearly visible Hertz logo and when users clicked on it they 
  could view the terms and conditions which stated that the deal with Hertz 
  Israel was valid for EL AL tickets to the country.

But last night the Hertz Corporation said they did not want to be associated 
  with the offer and said they had called on EL AL to remove it. They have 
  already insisted that their logo be taken off the promotion.
