No harm[edit]

in noting on this talk page that we know Afsai's article gets everything wrong, and that, though the rabbis' cable in 1897 is apocryphal, the story arose among Zionists sometime in the first decades of the 20th century. We can't document the results per WP:OR and WP:RS, but the research has been done and the results can be ascertained by a little googling. Nishidani (talk) 18:26, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Propaganda Category[edit]

The Wikipedia entry for Propaganda describes it as "selectively presenting facts in order to encourage a particular synthesis or perception, or using loaded language in order to produce an emotional rather than a rational response to the information that is being presented." This seems a good description for the way journalists, professors, etc., have been repeating "a phrase of unknown origin and without a primary source" even though there is apparently plenty of sourced material they could use instead, though lacking similarly loaded and emotional language. --Freeebiirdd (talk) 22:35, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a reliable source, and you need to have a reliable source that directly supports that this is propaganda. The article does not have any support for the category and the reason offered consists entirely of WP:OR. nableezy - 01:13, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bad writing[edit]

The attempt to list every use of the phrase is absurd and just makes the article look silly. Zero^talk 06:02, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
