Khalidi[edit]
A Forward article contains the following text:
In the first effort to methodically calculate the amount lost by Jews who fled Arab countries after the creation of Israel, a Holocaust restitution expert estimated that the losses amounted to $6 billion...
Palestinian critics argue that speaking of restitution is an insidious way of ruling out the possibility of a return to Israel — and Zabludoff is explicit in his paper that there should not be a right of return for Palestinian refugees.
“This is an insidious argument, because the advocates of Jewish refugees are not working to get those legitimate assets back but are in fact trying to cancel out the debt of Israel toward Palestinian refugees,” said Rashid Khalidi, Columbia University’s Edward Said professor of Arab studies.
Citing this article as a reference, you added the following text to the Wikipedia article on Rashid Khalidi:
Khalidi believes that Israel owes a “debt” to Palestinian Arab refugees but rejects the idea that Arab governments owe restitution for property confiscated from Jewish refugees forced to flee Middle Eastern and North African countries after the creation of Israel as “insidious.”
This is not an accurate description of Khalidi's position. Nor is it appropriate behavior on an article about a living person. Please, in the future, try to do better.
