Talk:Rehavam Ze'evi

message: I have no idea where the story about the purim party came from, but i cannot find any corroboration for it. All the hebrew websites I looked at gave the source of the nickname as a an incident in the Givat HaShlosha food hall, so I have replaced that section.
On a different note entirely, I am very uneasy about the section on famous Jews who were assainated. It really isn't relevant to the article. I haven't destroyed the section because I wanted to hear from others, but it really ought to be moved.

message: having affrimed this personally time and again, it can't be more clear than Gandhi (Zeevi) only wanted voluntary transfer. He said so many times on every media possible and in the official party of his (it was usually a one man party in essence, so that sentence about other moldete members doesn't make sense) that it can't be more than the truth. I also studied him for years and never heard this jordan theory. I think people are inventing lies here. so let's stick to the truth. Amoruso 03:36, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: the article right now is complete B.S and bias against Gandhi. All this ethnic expulsion shit should and will be removed. He never said wanted things this way, know so from knowing him personally and reading many books about the situation. Amoruso 23:20, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Please review WP:V: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth". Unfortunately, your claim of knowing him personally, and what he may have said to you, is not verifiable. The controversy section on the other hand is well cited (there are may other sources too). Do post if you believe you have information per WP:RS saying otherwise and I'll be happy to discuss it. -- Steve Hart 00:53, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I will indeed provide the sources to refute all the crazy allegations here in due time. It's not about knowing him personally, that's not even needed in this case. It's about living on Planet Earth or in this case Israel. Citing some reporter's delirium stands to nothing. You have to realise that with people like Gandhi, it's not as if there were obscure reports from time to time on his thoughts. Zeevi was on the political shows and news all the time, constantly... and his views are very well known. Citing selective anti semite remarks is misleading , baffling, and also "violent" .

replies: text:  Again, please review WP:V. In an earlier edit, prior to my involvement, you said: "if you're going to make such wild accusations, you need to put citations....". So I did. I cited CNN, The Guardian, AP and CSM. I could also cite BBC, Washington Post, and others. Read his obituaries. The section is properly cited; neither is it "selective citing". (You should also take a moment to review the previous discussion here). I'll revert your edits and I ask you to post your claims and sources here first. -- Steve Hart 16:06, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

text:  On a second review of your edits: note that the page does not cite allegations against Zeevi (though I'm sure there are many of those). Citations are sources reporting on statements he made. Please take that into account in your reply. -- Steve Hart 16:26, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I looked into the sources and none have Gandhi saying that he advocated ethnic cleansing... in fact, the guardian actually says he adovcated transfer by agreement. moreover, there's no direct quote of the context of the lice quote. I think it's very misleading. This is why I took a liberty in writing two sentences about beni elon and gandhi's comments over the policy, to balance it a little. Because i do think that focusing on one sentence he might or might not have said in 40 years on a radio station is a bit unfair and not WP:CITE standard . I hope it's ok. G'day.

This is a useful English summary of revelations in the Hebrew press about many aspects of Ze'evi's life missing from this article. Nishidani (talk) 20:34, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Update? 

message: In the Wikipedia main page 'On this Day'(dated 17/10/2016) referring to his death in 2001, it claims Ze'evi was the first Israeli minister assassinated in a terrorist attack; having recalled Yhitzak Rabin was also assassinated, I looked him up as well. Rabin's assassination was committed by a lone gunman, opposed to the Oslo peace accords, yet could this not also be described as as "terrorist" incident? Does the Wikipedia definition of terrorism not include "lone gunman"-type assassinations? Noble Korhedron 22:12, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

message: Obviously he's notable for being a future prime minister but it's worth mentioning what a person was at the time of the events, in this case a Likud MK (member of Knesset).--Nngnna (talk) 13:27, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
