Examples
| Page name | Description |
|---|---|
| "The Holocaust" | In its capitalized form "The Holocaust" refers in the Western world to the treatment of the Jewish populations of Germany and German occupied territories during WW2 (1939-45). Its use in this format stems from about the mid-1960's (i.e. more than 20 years after the events it claims to define). It does not appear in histories or documents before that time. |
| Israel/Judaization of Jerusalem | Slow-motion but determined ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem |
| Nakba Day | Palestinian commemoration of the 1948 ethnic cleansing |
