Judea & Samaria Honest Reporting 06:20 PM
ICYMI: WATCH: "West Bank" or "Judea & Samaria?"
Media outlets often treat “West Bank” as neutral while labeling “Judea and Samaria” as political or biblical.
But “Judea and Samaria” has been used for thousands of years, including by ancient empires, the British Mandate, and the 1947 UN Partition Plan. “West Bank” only appeared after Jordan seized the territory in 1948 and renamed it in relation to its own “East Bank.”
So the question is: why does the media treat the ancient name as political, but the modern Jordanian name as neutral?
