HaGalil: what Wikipedia removed
HaGalil is a German-language online magazine covering Judaism, German Jewry and Israel, among the most widely read of its kind in German. The 2010 opening quoted the magazine’s editor stating its main goals as being “to fight anti-Semitism and neo-Nazism on the web, and to supply data regarding Judaism, Jews and Israel.” Today’s opening says only that haGalil relates “to the issues of Judaism, German Jewry and Israel,” without naming its anti-Semitism mission; the word survives twice elsewhere in the article. A reader arriving at the opening today learns what subjects the magazine covers, and not that its editor stated its main goal was fighting anti-Semitism and neo-Nazism.
The word “antisemitism” appeared 2 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2010. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 2. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
