Infobox numbers for "Israel" includes israeli settlers in occupied territories[edit]

The numbers for "Israel" in the infobox includes Israeli settlers in occupied territories, this must clearly be stated in the infobox. Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 07:36, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Population" section -- Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 11 November 2023[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

In the "Population" section, the first image in the section is "Israeli soldiers". This image seems to be in the wrong section, and should be moved to the "Military conscription" subsection.

The second image is "Jews in Israel population pyramid in 2021", which would be more appropriate as the first image in this section. Betsy Rogers (talk) 06:17, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done I've removed the image, as it isn't relevant there and we already have an image in the "Military conscription" section. Elli (talk | contribs) 22:08, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Origins section is meaningless .[edit]

This whole section is literally a Zionist POV ("Homeland" , "Migrant Arabs", assuming the United Monarchy existed , ignoring "Judea" and Hasmonean conquests etc ) that attempts to re-interpret Jewish history as a national history , rather than a people . It doesn't even clearly discuss Jewish ethnogenesis during the Persian and Hasmonean periods , but repeat the biblical narrative in a nationalist lenses .

The entire first 3-4 paragraphs don't have a single citation from even a half-decent source .

There were no Israeli-Jews in history prior to 1896 at the earliest . Conflating Iron-Age Israelites and Judeans of classical antiquity with them is an anachronistic modern-day projection unto the past . 176.44.69.86 (talk) 12:43, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, the section has extremely weighted language for a Wikipedia page and requires significant editing. Galdrack (talk) 12:36, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request on name of section "Israeli Jewish victims of Palestinian political violence"[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The language of this section is extremely heavily weighted and rather racist in it's language and projection. The title applies an implicit bias in the perspective of the Palestine-Israel conflict and it should be adjusted to be more in line with such sections in other pages.

Suggest removing the section entirely as it doesn't provide a specific history to the population, or moving it to "https://www.qudswiki.org/?query=Israeli_casualties_of_war" where applicable.
