message: The habitat and range description, at first glance, before my edit just now, seemed to have been politicized, mentioning the range of the bird by country but omitting Israel and apparently covering the area whilst referring to the same state twice, namely Palestine and Palestinian territories.  According to Wiki itself, the state of Palestine is tautologous as a geographical area with the Palestinian territories, so this description actually omitted the geographical area of Israel, where the bird obviously exists - assuming that a petty political point was not being implied that "Israel is Palestine" for which there is surely no need or place in an article such as this.  In fact, on closer look, though written “Palestine” the word linked not to the state of Palestine article, but to “Palestine (region)”, in a way which, as I described, is misleading, which is not only inconsistent (since the rest of the bird’s range is described using names of states, and not geographic regions), but confusing and potentially misleading.  So although one alternative would have been to change “Palestine” to “the geographic region of Palestine” and remove “Palestinian territories,” for the sake of consistency, and to avoid the unnecessary appearance of a politicization of an article about a bird, I have replaced “Palestine” with “Israel” and retained “Palestinian territories.” So as to be clear that I am not taking a political stance here, I wanted to give a fuller explanation here than the Edit summary allows.
