Talk:Muslim conquest of the Levant

message: the name "Palestine" predates 70 AD. Can someone remove the Zionist propaganda that "Romans named the area Palestine in a spasm of antisemitism"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8000:3603:4408:7453:359D:1D85:27EE (talk) 23:09, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

message: I have corrected this false sentence:
*Persians under Khosrau II had succeeded in occupying Syria, Palestine and Egypt for over a decade before being forced by the victories of Heraclius by recapturing Jerusalem in 614 and winning at Chalcedon in 617 to conclude the peace of 628.
The encyclopedia brittanica, cited as source for this sentence, claims:
:In 623 the Byzantine emperor Heraclius reversed Persian successes over Roman arms — namely, by capturing Jerusalem in 614 and winning at Chalcedon in 617.
According to me, Brittanica claims that Persians captured Jerusalem in 614 and won at Chalcedon in 617. The author of wikipedia article has mistaken the sense of the sentence, writing that Heraclius reconquered Syria in 614 and won the Persians at Chalcedon.
Gibbon confirms what I say:

message: The section "Byzantine Syria" seems contradictory.  History buffs know that it is discussing Roman Syria, but the article does not make this clear.
I would suggest renaming the section "Roman/Byzantine Syria" to properly reflect that at the start of the period discussed, no one refers to the rulers as "Byzantine" (and indeed, they never called themselves that even at the end). Famartin (talk) 18:48, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I see your point. Personally, I find the idea of a "Roman/Byzantine Syria" title a bit ugly, so I would simply call it "Roman Syria"; after all, many Byzantinists consider the Arab and Sassanian invasions the key moment to distinguish "Roman" and "Byzantine". Thus I've worked around to try to avoid confusion.Aldux (talk) 14:28, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

message: I believe we should remove this quote because it has poor support outside of a single book.
"His parting words which he repeated to each of the corps commanders, were as follows:
In your march be not hard on yourself or your army. Be not harsh with your men or your officers, whom you should consult in all matters. Be just and abjure evil and tyranny, for no nation which is unjust prospers or achieves victory over its enemies. When you meet the enemy turn not your back on him; for whoever turns his back, except to manoeuvre for battle or to regroup, earns the wrath of Allah. His abode shall be hell, and what a terrible place it is! And when you have won a victory over your enemies, don't kill women or children or the aged and do not slaughter beasts except for eating. And break not the pacts which you make. You will come upon a people who live like hermits in monasteries, believing that they have given up all for God. Let them be and destroy not their monasteries. And you will meet other people who are partisans of Satan and worshippers of the Cross, who shave the centre of their heads so that you can see the scalp. Assail them with your swords until they submit to Islam or pay the Jizya. I entrust you to the care of Allah." 2601:602:9B00:6770:B0A6:9DD0:B92A:B918 (talk) 09:53, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

message: So, the province of Byzantium in question was known as Palaestina Prima. It was not known as Palestine, nor Israel. If you read an article about the ancient Roman Empire, it refers to Gaul, not France and Germanica, not Germany. It is crucial to use the correct historical nomenclature.199.119.233.221 (talk) 02:39, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: Please do not attack me. In the revisions, , you did not link this article anywhere and I wanted to direct you towards the correct path. I apologize if my comments came off as insensitive, maybe you could add a blurb about how it wasn't called Palestine yet. akidfrombethany!(talk|contribs) 02:55, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
