Leiba or Lev?

Once again we have an article that speaks with forked tongue. Was his original birth name Lev (as per the lede) or Leiba (as per lower down in the story)? -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 07:21, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The original name is Leiba. Lev is a "translation" of his name into Russian and most commonly used. Those names are often considered to be interchangable. If in doubt - use Leiba.--80.232.251.18 (talk) 17:00, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Trotsky, Zionism and revert war

I gave three reliable sources showing that in his last years Trotsky supported Zionism: [1][2] [3]

But user User:RolandR for a reason reverted my edit. After entering his page I saw he is clearly a biased anti-Zionist. Is it ok that reliable references are deleted because some Anti-Zionist doesn't like that? What about NPOV?
