Paratha
Very interesting article!
Ok, an Indian paratha is a flatbread and Malawach is a flatbread too. But Paratha is not a FLAKY, or multi-layered flatbread. Malawach is flaky and multi-layered. I am going to suggest an edit. I think what is meant here is Malawach is similar to lacha paratha, or to Kerala paratha. Those breads are flaky, and multi-layered, while paratha is not. Malawach is also similar to Chinese scallion pancake, and prepared using a similar method.

Eh, some parathas are not flaky (there are different types) but others have that same phyllo-dough type flake to them. Ibco-brand frozen parathas for example look identical to frozen malawahs and cook and taste the same — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.46.74.88 (talk) 10:57, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Although I am a Zionist myself, the article is written too much from a Zionist POV--written as it is, it is begging for some anti-Israel type to go on about how wikipedia is Zjionist occupied. It's a food, so you don't need to insert ideological commentary about liberation from Exile in Yemen. Keep politics out of this.

Not just an Israeli food
This Yemeni bread is called Khubz Mulawah (خبز مُلوَح). It originates from Aden. Although introduced to the Israeli cuisine by the Yemeni minority there, it is still a Yemeni bread. The transliteration "Malawach" is preposterous. This is akin to having "spaghetti bolognaise" having supremacy over ragù alla bolognese or Bolognese sauce.
