Certain parts of the article indicate a clear political slant---rvitelli

I have been forced to revert User:Doom's constant meddling with the text because it is performed without explanation. The original text was drafted according to the sources cited in references, following closely the language there. It is not, I repeat, not POV to call an Arab of an area defined as 'Palestine' or the Palestyine Occupied Territories, as a Palestinian. It is not POV to note that newspaper reports refer to his death as a 'suicide'. It is POV to say he was killed when no authoritative sources confirm this. Please document changes according to WP:RS. And edit step by step so one can follow the reasons behind what you are doing.Nishidani (talk) 09:01, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] CAT justification

[edit] Mass Murder

Someone is playing with the cats and thinks 'only' four dead means one cannot tag it as mass murder. This defies the technical literature which defines mass murder as from 3-4 in any one place and time. SeeRonald M.Holmes, Stephen T.Holmes, Murder in America, Sage Publications, London 2nd ed. p.54ff. 3-4

[edit] Proper category

Please see Category:Mass murderers. "The following lists individuals who have committed mass murder, defined as the killing of four or more people in a single incident. This category is not to be used for terrorists, or for those who carried out massacres in service of a state." Either or, not both. If there is a disagreement, I will be happy to lock the article while the discussion is carried out on the talk page to prevent edit warring. -- Avi (talk) 14:10, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
