I thought about whether this should it be folk literature instead of folk culture. Based on the article it is a type of "folk literature". I will go with "Folk culture" since it is also described as "folk tales" and "entertainment and education". Bruxton (talk) 18:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
{{Should it not be noted that the current genocidal goals of Israeli political parties and leadership (as outwardly expressed by Likud and coalition partners documents and speeches of their leaderships) is speeding this destruction of this unique cultural form of expressions?}}
Only if the causal connection can be sourced (see WP:V and WP:RS). This seems like recentism to me, the decline is longstanding and has been going on under different Israeli governments. You might argue that the Israeli occupation since 1967 (or, for that matter, the displacement since 1948) has something to do with it, but it is far from obvious that this is true; such folk traditions tend to decline everywhere anyway. And the section, citing UNESCO, already alludes to the Israeli occupation by means of the phrase 'the current political situation in Palestine'. --62.73.69.121 (talk) 07:24, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
