Several passages from this article are clearly lauding, like this: "As ICAHD’s Coordinating Director, Professor Halper has organized and led nonviolent direct action and civil disobedience against Israel’s occupation policies and authorities. He has put his own personal safety on the line, facing bulldozers in front of Palestinian homes and confronting Israeli soldiers." The source that is used to back that claim in ICAHD's website, definitely not a neutral source when discussing the activities of its director.

Another interesting passage reads: "According to Professor Halper, 95 percent of home demolitions have nothing to do with security." An encyclopedia entry can not quote the person it describes as a reliable source.Lizrael (talk) 08:11, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I respectfully disagree. All three sentences quoted are perfectly objective, and the tone is not necessarily laudatory either. As for the last point, it is of interest and relevant to know what Halper believes to be true. Mark K. Jensen (talk) 09:36, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
