"in" the Palestinian Territories

The Mufti's "kill the jews.." statement was made in a radio address broadcast in Arabic from Berlin, does that count as being racism IN the Palestinian territories? My initial thought is that it strictly does not.Selfstudier (talk) 11:41, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Quite right. I think it was deleted once before on those grounds too. Actually it isn't clear tha anything Husseini did in Europe is relevant. Zero^talk 12:28, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, not quite. Those broadcasts were directed at the Middle East, and, given Husayni's whilom status, could be construed as incitement for Palestinians. On the other hand, the topic is Palestinian territories, a post-1967 geopolitical reality post-dating statements of this kind by some decades, so the link is tenuous. Borderline, unless one can come up with some post 67 citation by a PT figure using it, which is not perhaps to be ruled out. So before re-introducing it, that qualification would be required.Nishidani (talk) 12:35, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This’s the most bullshit article I’ve ever read in Wikipedia. Moudinho1996 (talk) 16:33, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

A review of Israel's country report conducted by the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination stated "The status of the settlements was clearly inconsistent with Article 3 of the Convention, which, as noted in the Committee's General Recommendation XIX, prohibited all forms of racial segregation in all countries. There is a consensus among publicists that the prohibition of racial discrimination, irrespective of territories, is an imperative norm of international law."[48]

This has been largely disputed, namely by the ADL, as Israel says these are two different countries. Its also worth noting the Palestinian Authority will explicitly refuse Jews the ability to buy land in the state of Palestine (https://slate.com/news-and-politics/1997/05/selling-land-to-jews.html)

Racism in the State of Palestine → Racism in Palestine – It would follow WP:COMMONNAME, and WP:CONCISE. please see the Google Ngram as well. I thought that this may garner some controversy, but it shouldn't. It doesn't matter whether you're pro-israel or pro-Palestine because both titles acknowledge Palestine as a state. Therefore, nothing would really be changing except it would be a more common and concise name. Also, it would follow the naming convention for articles about racism. See Racism in the United States, Racism in the United Kingdom, Racism in China, Racism in Brazil, Racism in Russia, Racism in South Africa, etc. Thank you.
