Talk:Palestinian views on the peace process

message: 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. 2600:6C50:79F0:90:A4F2:D3A6:638E:7335 (talk) 14:55, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

message: 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

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.

thread_title:  Palestinians have offered a limited right of return 

message: 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.

"it became clear that Arafat would not make a deal with Israel unless it included the full Palestinian right of return,"
The specific phrase above reflects a biased view of the peace process of Israel and Palestine, It speculates on Arafat's reasons for rejection without clear evidence and cites a source that neither mentions Arafat nor this specific offer from Barak and belongs to a biased advocacy website.
Consequently, this phrase should be removed as it constitutes original research according to WP:OR

thread_title:  Reason for Arafat to reject the peace process 

message: The phrase "However, widespread anti-Semitic sentiments in Palestinian society and Palestinian militancy have hindered the peace process." reflects a non-consensual viewpoint based on two opinion articles that cannot be considered reliable sources. According to Wikipedia guidelines, opinion articles should rarely be used for statements of fact - WP:RSEDITORIAL: 
It presents a biased and one-sided perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflic which contradicts WP: NPOV, especially in the lead section: "the emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic, according to reliable, published sources.". 
This phrase should be completely erased. Lucasdmca (talk) 03:36, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
