Amatzia is an Israeli moshav built on the land of a depopulated Palestinian village. Through 2015 the opening said it was located "on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village of Al-Dawayima, the scene of the 1948 Al-Dawayima massacre." Today the word appears nowhere in the article. A reader today learns Amatzia is a moshav near Lakhish with a population of 190 and does not learn it sits on the site of a 1948 massacre of Palestinian villagers.
