This is nonsense. The information is not from a questionable source, the material is to be presented in a meaningful matter. Your only objection is your unreasonable hatred for the Israeli government, which has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Unless someone has any objections other thatn Stevertigo, can we PLEASE end this and continue with discussing the merits of the BOT per se, and not the source of the material?

We agree then that there are standards which would cause us to void some statistics-- we can refuse to be ignorant and admit that statistics are not unpolitical-- that we not take them at face value. We can agree to use the .il statistics, provided we violate their "moral" copyright-- And AS I SAID THREE times: Not with a bot. A bot represents a privelidged means of access to the Wikipedia.

I really find it incredible that you're objecting. A lot of things have been said against the government of Israel, but I haven't heard anyone questioning the statistics it gathers for its own bureaucratic purposes on its own citizens (these data do not include any information on Palestinians in the territories). How might the statistics be biased exactly? Too many or too few Jews? Too large a population, or too small? What would be the purpose of that? (Don't answer, it's a rhetorical question. I'm not going to debate this.)

I can kinda see Steve's point, but I don't agree with it. I wouldn't, under any circumstances, accept data from Congo under any circumstances. But Congo has active massacres on its citizens, and on all measures is worse than Israel. I can refute any specific argument against Israel, just email me offlist, Steve. LDan
