[edit] Walid Shoebat

If you read carefully, it says ACCORDING TO HIS OWN BIOGRAPHY on his website and book, what do you want me to do? say it again?. And "occupied territories" is not neutral pov, wikipedia almost never uses the term, and there are many points against it that make it incorrect. --Shamir1 00:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

I know it says according to his biography because I put that in. The point I'm making is that we need to distinguish facts from assertions. The facts are:
1. Shoebat says that he was born in Bethlehem.
2. Shoebat says that Bethlehem belongs to Israel.
Both these points should be treated as Shoebat's assertions (the only source for biographical information on Shoebat is the man himself), not as facts.--GagHalfrunt 15:46, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] North Korean films

Yes sorry about that imdb is very poor for less mainstream countries - I originally thought Azerbaijan had only made a handful of films and it turns out they are produced over 1000!!! -many of them notable too ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 11:30, 25 July 2007 (UTC) My trust in imdb has declined rapidly! Any idea where we miight find north korean films? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 11:31, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

IIRC some North Korean films are released on video in Japan, since part of the ethnic Korean community there is pro-North. As it happens, there's a new film from North Korea, The Journal of a Schoolgirl, which will be released in France later this year.--GagHalfrunt 17:58, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
