Civilians in the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict

Please do not add back in the world "civilian" above the Lebanese death totals unless the source actually says that. The current citation says 423 Lebanese, not 423 civilians. Bibigon 18:05, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, apperantly the current source does not say "civilians", though the source some day ago did, and then the word "civilians" was constantly removed by vandals. My mistake. --Battra 18:17, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why Take Away NPOV Picture?

May I ask why you took down a picture which you yourself claim is NPOV in the 2006_Israel-Lebanon_conflict article? I see nothing wrong with it. It is a picture of a protest in New York City. Please explain yourself, because I would like to replace the picture. --Bingman06 20:40, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did I say NPOV?I meant POV, of course. Please see the discussion at the talk page. The reason is that it gives the wrong impression of the protests. There have been protests with thousands of people, both people from the middle east and people having no family connection to the middle east. Your image is just six arab guys with posters that might be seen as antisemitic, so it does not give a representative view of the demonstrations. --Battra 20:50, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Christian conservatives?

I was wondering about the role of US christian conservatives on this matter. I don't know if it fits into the article, but I'm curious. As I understand it, christian conservatives has a strong role in US politics, and they strongly support Israel. Is this right? Is there any explanation for this support, as christians elsewhere usually support the Palestinians, and critisize Israel? (That goes for both the Vatican and the protestant church of Sweden which I read about in my newspaper here in Sweden.) Also, the christians in Israel are Palestininans. --Battra 11:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well evangelicals in the US see the creation of Israel as a heralding of G-ds prophecy and an important precondition of Armageddon they also tack the old testament literally that the Jews are G-ds chosen people.--J intela 02:37, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Battra. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Battra~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
