The following sentence from this article, which makes an assertion about the "motives" of the Birthright Israel organization, is not based on any factual information and expresses an anti-Birthright point of view:

"The name 'Birthright Unplugged' is a spin on the Birthright Israel program, whose name implies that Jews have the exclusive rights to own the Holy Land and to reside in it." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenrachel06 (talkcontribs) 04:34, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Three sources there now, think tag should be removed. --Ponox (talk) 00:34, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

removing NGO Monitor 'reactions' section

There was a part in this article which asserted that the Birthright Unplugged tour was supported by radical organizations, the only reference for this was from NGO Monitor. One look at NGO Monitor's page shows that this is not an objective source nor a credible news source. From Misplaced Pages's entry on NGO Monitor:

" Editing Misplaced Pages The on-line communications editor of NGO Monitor, Arnie Draiman, was indefinitely banned from editing articles about the Israeli-Arab conflict for biased editing, concealing his place of work and using a second account in a way that is forbidden by Misplaced Pages policy. Draiman was a major contributor to the articles of his employers NGO Monitor and Gerald Steinberg, and performed hundreds of edits of human rights organizations, such as B'Tselem, the New Israel Fund, Human Rights Watch and many others, to which NGO Monitor's president, Professor Gerald Steinberg, is opposed.

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
  1. There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
  2. It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
  3. In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 13:52, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
