The Journal of Palestine Studies published a falsified quote, which historian Ilan Pappé attributed to David Ben-Gurion.

Sandra O'Neill, an activist in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Campaign who manufactures grotesque falsehoods about Israel, has managed to peddle her fabrications, including the shooting deaths of small Palestinian children, to a Chico newspaper.
