Jabel Mukaber: what Wikipedia removed
Jabel Mukaber is a Palestinian neighborhood of East Jerusalem that has been home to perpetrators of attacks on Israelis, including the 2014 Har Nof synagogue attack. In 2010 the opening said the neighborhood “has been branded a hotbed of terrorism and an obstacle to the peace process due to militant activity and support for terrorism among some residents.” Today the opening carries neither terrorism nor militant, and terror appears zero times in the opening though it survives twice in the article. A reader today learns the neighborhood’s population and borders, and not that it has been described as a center of militant activity and support for terrorism.
The word “terror” appeared 3 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.
