Media mentionThis article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Unnamed votes against UN condemnation

It is strange that in the following quote, it lists 5 arbitrary members who supported the motion, while listing not listing either of the two countries (US and Australia) who voted against.


> supported by votes from 31 countries including the People's Republic of China, India, Indonesia, Russia, and South Africa, with 2 votes against and 18 abstentions


It makes it read as if the 31 countries supporting the motion were the exception, not the rule.

I would write it as follows:

> supported by votes from 31 countries, with 2 votes against from the United States and Australia, and 18 abstentions 144.172.156.217 (talk) 00:34, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

In my opinion, the only 2 votes against are much more interesting here than the votes in support. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.172.156.217 (talk) 00:35, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Change: > In an interview in 1988 to > In an interview believed to be recorded in the 1990s

This is what the source says, not 1988. Here is the source with a highlight, but the highlight may not work due to translation issues.

The attack was "internationally condemned"

This line in the article links to a Al Jazeera source, ie. anti Israel media. UN is equally biased 70.80.72.64 (talk) 22:50, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

"His village was ethnically cleansed"

This line in the article is problematic, as this allegation against Isreal is made by the debunked anti-israel activist Ilan Pappe, using words associated with genocide, a charge that is still pending at the ICJ and unlikely to be successful 70.80.72.64 (talk) 22:56, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
