Thanks for the message. As you point out that the "area of conflict" per the arbitration guidelines may be so "broadly construed" such that my latest edit on that particular passage demands proxy editing via a request to an extended-confirmed user, I will submit such a request via the talk page and refrain from directly applying it until I am at 500 edits.
And as a personal note: I have no enmity towards Palestinians; I detest the Israeli government for their actions. But Wikipedia is not supposed to written in a non-neutral tone. It is not supposed to be pro-Israel, not pro-Palestinian. It is pro-truth. That is the premise of my approach. In regards to your wording of that passage, I think it is not a very faithful representation of the source. As much as I sympathise with Payman and the broader peace movement, my role as a Wikipedia contributor is not minimising criticism of Payman that is present in a source.
