[edit] "Kahane Was Right"

I put in the following in a see also-section:

"Kahane Was Right (This phrase or meme, which alludes to Meir Kahane's extremist views on Palestinians, has been painted in graffiti all over Jerusalem.[1])"

I did so because racist/anti-Semitic chants and slogans exist on both sides of the conflict. And it's equally disgusting when individuals/groups on either side resorts to this very dehumanising display of hatred. The essay Wikipedia:POV pushing states that "It is often necessary to examine a topic from more than one perspective. This is especially so with controversial topics, such as politics, morality, and religion." I thought my inclusion would provide for a more NPOV version, and hopefully also give a better overall picture. --Bergerons 20:05, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge?

I think this is too narrow a subject for its own article, but I don't know to where it might be merger. Thoughts? Tom Harrison Talk 13:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)


Is there an article for "Itabach el yahud" ? Zeq 17:31, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

There is not an article, and google hasn't been helpful. Does it mean 'kill the Jews?' Maybe some of this could be merged to a section on Arabs and anti-Semitism (if it is Arabic) - Slogans or Crowd chants. Tom Harrison Talk 20:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Battle of Khaybar may be a good merge destination. Pecher Talk 20:00, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

He added that Hizbullah replaced the anti-Judaism, which was prevalent at the time of the Prophet, with Imam Khumayni’s political ideology of anti-Zionism: “Khaybar, Khaybar ya sahyun, Hizbullah qadimun [Khaybar, Khaybar you Zionists, Hizbullah is coming]”.
