The important page Antisemitism on Wikipedia is grounded in solid research. Yet, the community's decision to merge it with the general category Criticism of Wikipedia reflects an attempt to evade accountability, dilute the issue, and downplay its seriousness.

אירוע מטורף לגמרי - שר בטחון מפוטר בעיצומה של מלחמה ב-7 חזיתות, אולי ערב מתקפה איראנית, בשביל לפתור משבר פוליטי שבו אותו שר ניסה לעשות את תפקידו - להילחם על גיוס חיילים חרדים כדי למלא את השורות.

The Wikipedia article on Zionism is riddled with inaccuracies and misleading claims. Prof. Eric Mechoulan, a distinguished historian, critically analyzes its portrayal of Zionism as merely an ethnocultural nationalist movement emerging in 19th-century Europe.
He argues this perspective neglects the deep historical connection of Jews to their ancestral land, Zionism’s response to exile, and the complexities of Jewish identity.
Prof. Mechoulan emphasizes that the article distorts the true essence of Zionism and its historical significance.

It is time to restore neutrality to Wikipedia and for the @Wikimedia foundation to investigate who is behind the political bias in the editing of this article.

The beginning of a Wikipedia article is crucial in shaping readers' perceptions, especially given that most users spend only 18-25 seconds on a page.

In the case of the English Wikipedia article about Yahya Sinwar, his connection to terrorism appears later in the text, allowing other aspects of his biography to take precedence.
Similarly, the article on Osama bin Laden opens by describing him as a "militant leader," delaying the explicit mention of his identification as a terrorist until the end of the second paragraph, with the fact that he was responsible for the deaths of 3,000 people only introduced in the third paragraph.

The editorial choice to use smiling images for both figures (with Sinwar’s picture recently updated) further contributes to an effort to normalize men associated with mass violence.
By presenting them in a more humanized and less threatening manner, this visual and textual framing subtly influences how these individuals are perceived by readers on a platform with vast public reach.

This is one of the most intensive, important pieces I've reported.

It shows how a powerful group of pro-Palestine Wikipedia editors have hijacked the Israel-Plaestine discourse. But it a template for how radical ideas get milled into the mainstream by the open encyclopedia.

[WikiBias @WikiBias]

Journalist @AshleyRindsberg, who we’ve been in touch with, has uncovered a network of pro-Palestinian editors working together to edit hundreds of Wikipedia articles, shaping a biased narrative.

How did they go unnoticed? Who’s supporting them as admins? Why aren’t they permanently banned?

Various sources, including a Finnish journalist, have reported that Al-Shifa Hospital has functioned as a Hamas headquarters, with missiles launched from its grounds.

Despite this, the opening paragraphs of the Wikipedia article on Al-Shifa Hospital present a one-sided perspective, omitting a detailed account of the hospital's reported militant uses.

Instead, the structure follows a biased narrative: it first accuses Israel of heinous deeds at length; then, it denies Israel’s reasoning with extensive quotes; and finally, it briefly mentions a New York Times report confirming Hamas’s use of the hospital in a single line at the end.

This selective presentation undermines the complexity of the situation and misleads readers.

Such biased writing does not help anyone. It must be addressed!

Before and After: Two images showing the appropriation of the @Wikipedia 'Zionism' article, highlighting how edits have skewed it toward an anti-Zionist narrative based on manipulation and misinformation.

It’s high time for the @Wikimedia Foundation to uphold its commitment to neutrality, stop the #WikiWashing, and ensure balanced, fact-based representation on historically significant topics.

Today, November 2nd, marks the anniversary of the 1917 Balfour Declaration, a pivotal moment in Zionist history when Britain affirmed its support for a "national home for the Jewish people." However, troubling biases in its portrayal on Wikipedia raise serious concerns, particularly through an antisemitic tone and reliance on controversial sources like Ilan Pappé.

Dr. @kobbybarda emphasizes that, while British strategic interests were the primary motivators behind the Balfour Declaration, the Wikipedia article on Zionism presents a distorted perspective that perpetuates harmful stereotypes, suggesting a narrative of Jewish control over world affairs.

Given the widespread accessibility of Wikipedia, the Wikimedia Foundation must be held accountable for allowing such biases to persist. It is essential that effective measures are implemented to promote balanced and accurate representation, ensuring that Wikipedia maintains its integrity as a neutral and trusted resource for all users.

THE MUST WATCH VIDEO OF THE YEAR IS HERE.

Of all the superb monologues from @Erin_Molan over the past year, this one simply takes it to a new level.

Erin is a beacon of moral courage and clarity that is so desperately missing from the media these days, and it’s why we all need to share and reshare and reshare again this incredible woman’s words.

PLEASE RETWEET THIS ENDLESSLY FOR ALL TO SEE.

Just brilliant. Thank you @Erin_Molan and to all at @SkyNewsAust

A Nobel prize? Really?

An UNRWA employee, an organization that is ironically nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, is seen here in this image as a Hamas terrorist kidnapping the body of Jonathan Samerano, whose remains have been held by Hamas's monsters for over a year.

UNRWA is not a refugee agency—it is an agency of chaos, violence, and a well-oiled machine of hate, funded by free nations that supposedly want peace in the Middle East.

UNRWA has not improved the situation of the Palestinians for 76 years, but rather preserves it, thus failing in its objective. The UN and the nations of the world continue to fund an organization that promotes the education of killing Jews, thereby fueling the conflict instead of working towards a peaceful and shared life solution.

Is this peace? Is this what a humanitarian organization looks like? In what world are terrorists awarded prizes?
