[edit] "Exiled"?!?
"Sami Hadawi, author of works on the land rights of Palestinian refugees, was exiled by Israel in 1948 and denied permission to have his remains returned to his native Jerusalem for burial in 2004?"
Wow I didn't know that he was "exiled" - I would have assumed he left an active warzone! And maybe he did - I wouldn't trust the Jordan Times to differentiate the two; that is unless differentiating the two made Israel look worse.
Lets try to make the article less POV. 141.166.152.32 (talk) 05:28, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
- I think the word "exiled" applies reasonably well to a person who wasn't allowed to return to his homeland for more than fifty years, not even in a casket. What term would you suggest that makes Israel "look better"? MeteorMaker (talk) 12:16, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
