Talk:Violence in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict

message: Listing any source as "a staunchly conservative website" as in this case violates two of the three content policies (Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view and Wikipedia:Verifiability). I have deleted it.Dlaso 21:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Source listed as "a staunchly conservative website."

message: Good Edit MathKnight.
* I find the whole article quite biased towards Israel, I don't find myself confident enough to change it, but it should definitely be reviewed
*Personally I find the "Some Features of the Violence section to be extremely one sided, implying that all Palestinian victims are terrorists and all Israel victims are innocent civilians.  I don't want to start an argument here, but a polarizing subject like this is one of the most difficult challenges for Wikipedia, and I think it should be as balanced as possible. 69.117.143.23
:i agree, the "Some Features of the Violence" and following sections need some work before qualifying as NPOV. i'm adding a POV-section tag. The section appears to be nearly entirely original research with no attempt (so far) at NPOV. Boud 22:19, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Use of Children

message: Why is the army listed there?? Of course an army has been involved in 'violence', every single active army in the world has been involved in some kind of violence! Even my country's litle tiny 'army' of NZ has been involved in violence. So as such I think that the IDF should be removed from the list, it is pointless. Mathmo 05:03, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: List of organisations on both sides which are or have been responsible for violence

message: There should be a page on wiki for this issue. Settlers beat and abuse Palestinians in the West Bank on literally a daily basis, without provocation. One Israeli border guard was actually caught on tape beating a Palestinian child a few days ago, and it's making news in Ha'aretz. This is a big issue, I'm surprised it doesn't get more attention on wiki. Perhaps I'll start a page. Shamir1, Bt'Selem, Amnesty, the UN, Human Rights Watch, and many other international, Israeli and American organizations have documented literally hundreds of cases of Israeli settlers armed with AK's and chains and clubs beating Palestinian children on their way to school and home. That is why the Israeli army has to escort them now, and even then they still get beat. In many of these cases, it is just clear cut aggression. A student of history 23:44, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You forgot to mention that in addition to "beating Palestinian children on their way to school and home", those wicked Joos use blood of poor cuddly children to make matzos. ←Humus sapiens ну? 01:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Humus Sapiens, your joke is pathetically ignorant. Have you ever read a Bt'Selem report in your life? I will get a source for this statement, because I can see it evokes powerful emotions in some people. But it happens. International volunteers move to the WB to escort children to school and home, and they too are beaten. If you don't like Bt'Selem, read any Human Rights organization report on settler violence, it is a fact of daily life for Palestinians in the West Bank. Are you really so narrow minded? Hell, there are videos of this actually occuring on the internet. A student of history 17:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Using images of little cute children to incite anti-Jewish hatred is nothing new: from Little Hugh of Lincoln and Simonino to Andrei Yushchinsky to today's accusations of Jews (note that the term "settlers" nowadays is reserved solely for Jews). Today the wicked Jews target Palestinian children (either by strategically placing toys filled with explosives, or simply massacring them), they target Lebanese children - see doctored reports from Lebanon war, etc. Surely, individual Jews who hate Arabs do exist (nobody's an angel) but some political activists, groups and organizations deeply mired in anti-Israel controversies are a little too quick to pick on the Jews. This is one example that shows what kind of "scholar of history" you are. For shame. ←Humus sapiens ну? 09:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently I'm wasting my time with you. Instead of simply recognizing settler violence, you go on rants about anti-Semitism. Well done. And yes, those edits I made are all factual and accurate. Human rights groups and the UN have documented these over and over again. You seem to be one of these people who just blinds yourself to such things. I could source every single one of them, but apparently that whole section has been removed, which I am fine with.

replies: text: There have been cases where Israelis in the West Bank have harrassed Palestinians in the past, but it is a two-way street. Not too long ago was an eighth grade boy stoned to death. Most recently a father of three was attacked and killed while praying in a forest. Let's not pretend that the other is not doing the same thing. --Shamir1 02:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Israeli settler violence 

message: The only way to make this article neutral is to make it as inclusive as possible, any act of violence which is properly sourced should be included, both on Palestinian side and Israeli side. This would mean not deleting references to the Deir Yassin Massacre (or any equivalent massacre on the Palestinian side) on the basis that it "does not fit the text".
I do agree that a solution could be deleting the article since it adds nothing new to History of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

thread_title: Making article balanced

replies: text: What is the difference between Violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Timeline of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Conflict is violence per se. This is a completely wasted Wikipedia server space to have them both, and lowers the quality of each one of the pages. Unless you can find good idea why this page needs a space of its own.Greyshark09 (talk) 19:20, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with the sentiment that the pages should merge, as the information on both fit quite well together; although I think that they should be merged under the title "Events in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict" or something along those lines.
