[edit] explanation of my recent deletion
I deleted a piece which is referenced only to a video of an Egyptian cleric antisemtic rant. It is a primary source. There is no evidence of notability of this, i.e., there are no references to third-party sources which discuss this. I don't see the need in undue promotion of this anti-Semite by wikipedia.

- Thank you for clarification of notability. Loew Galitz (talk) 23:52, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Delete Actual Practices Section
The "Actual Jewish practices regarding blood and sacrifice" should be totally removed, as it is not relevent to the article at hand. Let's say you have an article about a person accused of murder, who is on trial and receiving massive media attention and who therefore has a Wikipedia article. You might argue that he/she could not be guilty because the group they belong to (US society, for example) prohibits murder. This would be a logical fallacy, however, since there is no reason a person living in such a society could not commit murder - and directly contradicts reality in that people often do. The paragraph appears to be making the same argument - that since Jews were forbidden to murder Christian children they must be innocent of the charges. The whole article seems to have a pro-Zionist bias. Considering the frequency of these charges over time and area, they should be given more weight. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 214.13.220.147 (talk) 23:18, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
- Not really a very good analogy. The promoters of blood libels claim that it is part of the Jewish religion to use the blood of Christian children in religious practices. It makes sense, then to give information about what Jewish religious practices actually entail. --Steven J. Anderson (talk) 05:27, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
