“My Beautiful Old House” and other Fabrications by Edward Said – Commentary Magazine  Very fascinating and rigorous review of Edward Said false narrative about his life including his claiming to go to a school in Jerusalem that he didn't and claiming to be good friends with someone in the class who says he never knew him. 2601:647:5900:17E0:D4E9:B4BC:1CE3:C719 (talk) 04:07, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

This has previously been discussed on this talk page. There is a paragraph about this in Said's French wiki-bio. Responses from Said, The Guardian, The New Republic, Slate, Christopher Hitchens and Alexander Cockburn are given there. Burrobert (talk) 05:52, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
They aren't responses in the publications you mentioned. They are just ad hominem attacks on the author's motives. No primary sources, nor Said himself, ever disputed what was written and proven. 2603:7000:D400:16CC:C81D:BA6F:296B:F839 (talk) 23:05, 31 August 2025 (UTC)

The link for the source The Cambridge Introduction to Edward Said leads to a page that reads "Oops. You're lost in Cambridge.

Here is an alternative link I would suggest! Thank you! 163.120.48.59 (talk) 19:16, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

It has been a while since this article has been reviewed, so I took a look and noticed lots of uncited statements, including lots of the "Views on Zionism" section. Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 01:20, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
