Hi Nableezy. I'm from Egypt too. Glad to see you :). --Darwish07 (talk) 02:19, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Peace indeed
Hey, thanks for the message. I appreciate it. Our dialogue (as unproductive as it was...) actually made me understand a little better what "the other side" thinks about the issue, so some good did come out of it. There's really no right or wrong here, just two sides to a story. And, indeed, the same should be reflected here in WP. I really hope both Palestinians and Israelis will all move past this period of aggression and into more productive times, so I could drive down to Gaza and have some good humus with the people. So take care, and indeed let's hope for some more peace. Rabend (talk) 07:43, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
Infobox inclusions
I have forwarded a compromise solution at the talk page of the Gaza conflict about the inclusion of UN workers and women and children. See it and reply please.BobaFett85 (talk) 15:51, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Fading away
Nableezy, my time limit is too small these days cause of the exams. If this silly debate about the "Gaza Massacre" term continued, just take a look at my 3-point ("Reply to claim 1", "Reply to claim 2", ..) answer to the 3 proposed "problems". I believe those 3 points are sharp enough to cut off all the proposed arguments, including bolding. Thank you. --Darwish07 (talk) 17:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
So far, my 3-point reply has not been challenged, cause I think they are powerful enough. See you soon. --Darwish07 (talk) 17:56, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Gaza Massacre
The reason I'm not taking active part in this discussion (as well as in many others) is that I am having a hard time to crystalize an opinion. I must say that I am appalled by the "massacre" terminology, as I find it to be nothing short of simple case of racism, yet, I can't see how we can ignore the fact that most of the Arab world does call it that way. That said, I guess I would have no objection to include the term in the lead, but don't quote me on that just yet. Also , most Israeli media outlets call it "the Gaza War". If "massacare" goes in so should "war" (maybe, I don't know). Bottom line: I am still contemplating, but I tend to agree it should stay. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Omrim (talk • contribs) 19:50, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Let me post a message by myself--Omrim (talk) 19:56, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
We disagree with a few of your points but you have not let any discussion devolve into an unproductive debate. Thanks. I keep on forgetting to sign my posts.67.170.88.215 (talk) 00:47, 12 January 2009 (UTC) Edit: And logging in.Cptnono (talk) 00:48, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Grossly gross
No problem man. I appreciate it. I'm sure that poor soldier who misfired is utterly devastated and would have liked to apologize for that horrible accident. Maybe when the war is over. Rabend (talk) 20:02, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Thank you
I appreciate the compliment, and sending a similar one your way. It is exhaustedly difficult to maintain reason and calm in such tense times (while trying to have real life outside wiki at the same time) and I deeply appreciate anyone trying to do so, such as yourself. Peace indeed (even though I am quite skeptic about seeing peace in my lifetime...)--Omrim (talk) 02:34, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
