"She told Channel 2 television news that because she was Jewish, reports were already circulating in Germany suggesting that her work had been produced in cooperation with the Mossad, Israel's secret service."
"Shapira, a Jewish German citizen, said she went into the project believing it was clear that "it was an Israeli who fired the shot since we were talking about a Palestinian boy."" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unitrin (talk • contribs) 16:57, 23 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
israelinsider.net is not a reliable source, see Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_28#IsraelInsider. In any case, ethnicity should only be mentioned at all in articles where it is relevant to the persons notability, and rarely needs to go into infoboxes. Please explain why you consider it significant, and provide reliable sources too. Only then, after discussion, can this be added. It would help if it was made clear on what grounds Schapira is being described as being 'Jewish': by faith, by ethnicity, or what? AndyTheGrump (talk) 20:48, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
It's relevant. She did 2 documentaries on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It's only fair that people know what her religion/ethnicity is, as is done with Arab/Muslim sources for the conflict. Why hide it? She won a Buber-Rosenzweig-Medal, because of her Jewish contributions. Unitrin (talk) 22:33, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
If that is a notable award and you have a citation that would be a good addition. Have you got a reliable citation for that? You seem to want to add her alleged Jewishness to assert that affected her reporting, if that has been alleged in independent reliable citations then if you present them here we can look at that also. Also , do you know the names of her parents and anything about them, that would improve the article.Off2riorob (talk) 23:43, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
