Ori, I'd like to say that I support you in your decision to revert to your shorter article. Obviously, it needs expansion. But the Wikipedia article seemed to be typically substandard Wikipedia work, and we on CZ should support those of us who wish to start over. --Larry Sanger 23:32, 30 March 2007 (CDT)


6 Day War

I believe we should have a section detailing Isreal defense and how it's current borders were determined by this action. Would this be an acceptible source?http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/1967toc.html.Richard Leeds 14:18, 8 April 2007 (CDT)

Capital

A controversy that I don't feel I know enough about to edit over: are we right to say that Jerusalem is the capital without qualification? We should clarify the status of both Jerusalem and Tel Aviv under Israeli and international law. John Stephenson 04:29, 21 May 2007 (CDT)

Israel has had Jerusalem as it's capital for a long time and it still is, even though the American embasy is in Tel Aviv, and by the way Bush or our next president should be moving it over to Jerusalem soon. Jordan Goldberg 12:51, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Information

I think that the fight in Israel between the Arabs and the Jews should be included, because that is a big part of how so many people know about Israel. Jordan Goldberg 10:33, 10 June 2007 (CDT)
