[edit] "Occupation"

Why is this word repeatedly removed? Tidaress 06:05, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

A better question is why were you sockpuppeting? Jayjg ^(talk) 22:58, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, Jay, I have not been "sockpuppeting", and I changed it to "occupation", because that is the word Peled-Elhanan uses (and, incidentally, so does most of the world). I think people should come up with a quote where Peled-Elhanan refers to the "control" over "disputed" territories ...or whatever... before they change it again.

[edit] Another Wikipedia homage to the Pantheon of marginal fringe Israeli anti-Israel activists

Why the glorification with such a long entry? Please, Wikipedia, say whatever you like, and report whatever you like, but you are in no way "the Free Encyclopedia". You are a partisan propaganda mouthpiece. Do not tout yourself as a reliable and neutral source. For sure you are not. The central thesis of your entry, that PEled became a so-called "peace activist" only after the death of her daughter in a suicide bombing is based on misconception and falsehood. Both she and her family have a long history of Left wing politics and hostility to Zionism and Israel. Her anti-Israel views did not originate from her personal loss, and that is a fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.68.95.65 (talk) 16:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
