There has been a series of comments about Roberts supposedly being an extremist. The comments are unprofessional, amateurish, at best exaggerated and at worst libelous. Please remember: would you expect to see comments like that in Encarta, World Book, or Encyclopedia Britannica? If not, avoid putting such comments here as well. Strive for a sense of balance and fairness on Wikipedia and use some self-restraint as this is editable by anyone. Also, to the best of my knowledge Roberts is known for a lot of things, but being anti-Israel is not one of them. This is a sensitive and polarizing issue. If you feel that this is deserving of a mention on the page, please don't put your own "spin" on it, and please use a reference! If there is some way to resolve this, such as a discussion of possible unbiased sources, please discuss it here. In the meantime I am going to send a complaint to Wikipedia to put a watch on this page, as Roberts is a living person.Please be civil, thanks.Skarredmunkey (talk) 21:38, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
