Generally, although I would not expect you to admit it, Wikipedia articles have a somewhat pro-Israeli bias.
Several of us were discussing the topic on the IRC channel in December (Anthere may remember this because she was one of them) and this question came up. One person said they thought WP (EN) had a pro-Israeli bias. Another said a pro-Palestinian bias. A third said neither POV was accurately represented.
Conclusion???
There just aren't a lot of Arabs or Palestinians showing up here. Most pro-Palestinian edits are coming from a liberal Israeli point of view such as Danny's
One Palestinian-Canadian showed up awhile ago but alas he has not contributed since September:
