Abdel Rahman Zuabi: what Wikipedia removed
Abdel Rahman Zuabi was the first Israeli Arab to serve as a Supreme Court justice, and sat on the commission investigating the 1994 attack on Muslim worshippers at the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron. The 2010 opening said “he was on the commission that investigated the Mosque of Abraham massacre in Hebron,” adding he was included “since the victims of the massacre were Arabs.” Today’s opening does not mention the commission or the massacre, though massacre survives once in the body. A reader today does not learn that Zuabi investigated the massacre of Muslim worshippers in Hebron.
The word “massacre” appeared 2 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2010. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 1. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
