Excised. This is hardly an NPOV comment; looks more as though it's in there to be provocative.

I am removing the following anti-Israeli - and false claim, from the entry. The claim states "It was born by major ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians from their homes in the mid 20th-century."

First off, many people would say that this is patently untrue. There is much historical evidence, including public admission by a huge number of Arab leaders, that the exodus of Arabs from the British Mandate of Palestine was due to the Arab themselves, who publicly called for all Arabs to leave Israel, so that the Arab armies could come in and destroy the State of Israel. Secondly, this polemical comment doesn't mention that Arab states did the same thing of their Jewish citizens, attacking them, killing them, and driving them out by the tens of thousands. Even the PLO and the Palestinian Authority have now signed agreements that any future peace accords must take into account the huge number of Jewish refugees. RK
