Resolution 242

The edit you have just omitted was not irrelevant at all. From a legal perspective, the ICJ ruling of July 2004 asserts that: 1. The whole of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem are occupied territories. 2. Under the principle of the inadmissibility of acquiring territory by war, Israel has no right to change the reality on the ground in these territories. That includes building settlemens and the partition wall, all of which are illegal. 3. Israel should withdraw from all of these territories or else those agreed upon with the Palestinians.

Thus, the ruling makes it very clear that legally speaking, the interpretation of 242 which calls for a full withdrawal is the correct one. However, the debate over the interpretation remains of value from a political perspective, not a legal one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rearticulator (talk • contribs)

1929 Palestine riots

Humus, I hope you don't mind but I have moved this back from "1929 Hebron massacre" as the 1929 disturbances included much more than the events in Hebron. The massacre itself should have its own article in my view. Perhaps you'd be interested in starting the article? --Ian Pitchford 21:04, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

There were a couple of dozen incidents during the 1929 disturbances, including the murder of Jewish children and elderly at Safed. Describing the events as the "Hebron massacre" implies that none of the other incidents were important. This is wrong, as the Shaw Commission report explains. --Ian Pitchford 07:13, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Jew Watch

Hey Jude. My edit

• "notoriety" is an inherently negative word. In this case, it is from the editor; not attributed. I first changed it to slightly positive "fame", then to "attracted attention". You rejected both...?
• "Although claiming neutrality", insinuates that the names of the headings are not neutral. Listing them says enough.
• Elders of Zion: I have a ton of excuses for that, but only concerning the content. But, if the protocol was cited as if it was authentic... I digress.
• "Neo-Nazism" encompasses fascism, racism, anti-Semitism etc. Not just anti-Semitism, although you may see it that way. I really don’t think they qualify. They don't call themselves Nazis either.
• "unintentional (or intentional)": empty statement, X or not X... nothing left.

And, you really should only mark vandalism as minor edits when reverting. Lastly, it was not my intention to hide my revert by editing twice (just read about rollback).

Re:Maps

I am flattered by being awarded this barnstar, thanks :)

I use CorelDRAW for making maps, but it may take you a long time to make that Peel map from scratch. I recommend using my full map of Israel as a basis, if you want to do this, please message me and I will send you the CDR version (or AI/SVG if you're going to use Adobe Illustrator).

I have since created this map of the Peel Commission proposal. -- Ynhockey 18:32, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Not according to Plan A. However, the other plan, Tel Aviv is part of the Jewish state. Or is that 2nd map just wrong? If you know, please shed light on this. I will also update the map to include Nazareth as a mandated enclave. -- Ynhockey 09:28, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

What? I only made 3 reverts, the same as you. Deuterium 10:54, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Which edit do you mean in this section? .. There are far more edits than I remember. Also, if you object, can you specify your objection? It would help me in answering your question. Thanks. Politis 11:05, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Humus, in wikipedia it is best to ask direct questions and hope for reasonable explanations, because it is prone to misunderstandings. I look forward to reading your precise question - if you wish. Thanks. Politis 11:59, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
