> Yesha Council, representing the Jewish settler movement, and the rightwing Israel
Sheli (My I srael) movement, ran their first workshop this week in Jerusalem, teaching
participants how to rewrite and revise some of the most hotly disputed pages of the online

> "We don't want to change Wikipedia or turn it into a propaganda arm,"
says Naftali Bennett, director of the Yesha Council. "We just want to show the other
side. People think that Israelis are mean, evil people who only want to hurt Arabs all

Not wanting to turn Wikipedia into a propaganda arm and wanting to
show the other side is a legitimate intention and until these people
do anything bad, we can safely Assume Good Faith.
The whole thing is a non-issue. It has already been discussed on Foundation-l :
