can somebody add {cn} tag?[edit]

right after

Antisemitism widespread?[edit]

In this Wikipedia article it is claimed that “widespread anti-Semitic sentiments in Palestinian society and Palestinian militancy have hindered the peace process.”

The source for this is an article in Haaretz which is clearly addressing a specific phenomenon of antisemitism in left-wing circles among foreign activists. This is not evidence of ‘widespread antisemitic sentiments in Palestinian society’ and it is certainly not evidence that this is a main hindrance to the peace process. Portraying Palestinians as antisemitic, in an article protected to prevent vandalism no less, is utterly absurd and anti-Palestinian. It is a politicised statement which needs rectifying. There are multiple blockages to the peace process. Antisemitism isn’t one of them. BrownBread90 (talk) 18:18, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Palestinians have offered a limited right of return[edit]

The line "In 2000, after Yasser Arafat rejected the offer made to him by Ehud Barak based on a two-state solution and declined to negotiate for an alternative plan, it became clear that Arafat would not make a deal with Israel unless it included the full Palestinian right of return, which would demographically destroy the Jewish character[when defined as?] of the State of Israel." is unsupported by any source and is categorically false. In fact, The Palestinians have made literally dozens of offers with the wording of “Allowing (25.000) refugees to return annually to Israel for ( 10 ) years, renewable thereafter with the consent of both sides." Joint Document 2009 http://transparency.aljazeera.net/en/projects/thepalestinepapers/201218205546234589.html This number was specifically designed to not overwhelm Israel, Abbas:"On numbers of refugees, it is illogical to ask Israel to take 5 million, or indeed 1 million," he told officials. "That would mean the end of Israel.”’ (Joint Document 2009) The Palestinian proposal varied between 60,000 down to as little as 10,000: Allowing 10,000 refugees to return annually for 10 years renewable thereafter with the consent of both sides "

The current text in this article is an unsupported and false opinion.

Hamas views[edit]

The section on the Hamas views is completely wrong. Although the original Hamas "charter" of 1988 was strongly anti-Israel, by 2006, Hamas had accepted the existence of Israel on the 1967 lines in the "Prisoners' Document." This was reiterated by both Mishal and Sinwar in interviews. This was re-affirmed in the 2017 charter, as well as the proclamation of the October 7 2023 attacks.

The claim that "during the 1990s and 2000s the PLO leadership has stated that it considered any peace with Israel was to be temporary until the dream of Israel's destruction could be realized." needs to be backed up with specific citations and quotes.
