Disputes between adding and removing Israel state sponsored terrorism and Israel’s clean break military strategy

I think Israel’s state sponsored terrorism further should be added as they provide a historical context of supporting terrorism and current accusations of helping allies of isis and terrorist organizations in general, if removing it on the pretext that it contains no claims related to isis and only al nusra than the majority of posts related to Syrian accusations can be removed due to them being related to their collaboration with al nusra

I also think Israel’s clean break military strategy should be added because it shows historical context of the Israeli governments view on a proxy war with Syria which is relevant to the current accusations of Israel having a proxy war with Syria using terrorists as the same Israeli prime minister during the documents proposal served as the Israeli prime minister during its operations against Syria using proxy forces Bobisland (talk) 15:56, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

←The whole Israel section is badly sourced tendentious rubbish. It certainly doesn't need further links to articles that have nothing to do with Isis/Islamic state.Unbh (talk) 16:30, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The majority of the Israeli section uses government statements as its source that’s as primary as it gets and none of the sources your mass deleting are deprecated and yes al nusra front was openly an ally of isis it is extremely obvious to the wiki page Bobisland (talk) 16:59, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And yes isis stating a towards Israel to stop an attack and have good relations is considered collaboration Bobisland (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:02, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We don't use primary sources. I've deleted no sources as deprecated. What i have done is remove your OR that is in no way supported or in most cases even mentioned by the sources you cited. Claiming that an apology for and Isis attack on Israel is collaboration by Israel is absurd. Unbh (talk) 17:07, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I get that the collaboration was only isis trying with Israel but why delete the the state sponsored terrorism of Israel further when it’s clearly relevant? And Wikipedia states deprecated sources can be used if they’re legitimate with examples of them using primary sources yet none of the sources you deleted were deprecated Bobisland (talk) 17:24, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Saying al nusra isn’t relevant to isis means the majority of the Syrian and Assad claims aren’t relevant Bobisland (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:27, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The claims being made were not supported by the sources cited. That's why they were removed. None of those sources even mentioned Al Nusra, or Bashar al Assad Unbh (talk) 17:31, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know someone using a bot deleted my source for the Bashar Assad part because it used RT so I have to find a new source even though using RT isn’t against the rules and I don’t know what sources your referring to because most mentioned al nusra or isis, I would still like to add the Israel and state sponsored terrorism as its politically and historically contextual to this wiki page, and if this is what your referring to as not having information relating to al nusra then go down to the Syrian civil war part of it Bobisland (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 19:29, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Russia

It is very clear that Russia supports the worldwide terrorist movement. They sponsored 9/11 to destroy the American free unipolar world. They sponsored attacks on Kurds and Sunni civilians in Syria and then they supported Taliban coup in Afghanistan. Add that in now. Russia is not a Christian country. Christianity in Russia, along with Orthodoxy as a whole, died with Nicholas II in 1917. Then, under the USSR, Russia became atheist and now it's Muslim. The language used in government is not even Russian but Arabic. The Russian government officials are open about their Islamic faith. 2A00:23C7:5882:8201:AC8B:357F:A19E:45A7 (talk) 16:04, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While it did make me laugh, Wikipedia talk pages aren't the place for stand up comedy. NingNonger (talk) 23:18, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Israel

The source for Israel working with/buying oil from ISIS comes from a person from a hyper-left wing formerly the "communist party" in Israel, and a person whose career/life is built around political support of Palestine and against Israel.

Is this really something that is considered serious sources on Wikipedia, even to the point where people see no need to even mention the extreme bias of this supposed "source"? It's hard to take Wikipedia seriously these days when it so clearly allows people with radical left wing beliefs to edit things as they see fit. 176.10.137.199 (talk) 08:39, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's an accurate report of statements made by a knesset member. Would you prefer if I add the UN documents which back up her statements also? NingNonger (talk) 23:20, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NingNonger, obviously, add the UN sources. Why would you delay? Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 15:56, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with @Industrial Metal Brain here. I've removed the allegation that Israel buys oil from ISIS because it comes from a member of a fringe party in the Knesset who claims there are supporting UN documents. However, she's never provided them when asked and I can't find them online. If that allegation is going to be added back in, we should cite the actual UN document (if it exists) where the allegation is made. Mad.siberian (talk) 15:12, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
