Military background.[edit]

I added Raz's military rank. I remember Yossi Sarid claiming that Raz was the only active member of the Reserves serving in the Knesset back in the day. And I've heard Raz be interviewed about his combat experience in the second Lebanon war. It's significant piece of his bio, that he's a combat officer with a special forces background, especially given his high profile in peace causes. Would love to see this element expanded.Perplexed566 (talk) 21:12, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That seems highly unlikely, as at any one time, there have been several Members of Knesset that were members of the IDF Reserves. Sorry to disappoint you, but there is nothing unique among Israeli Members of Knesset or Israelis in general in Raz's membership in the Reserves. 62.0.34.134 (talk) 13:59, 3 January 2018 (UTC)Jacob D[reply]

American Embassy Attack[edit]

Surprised to have not seen reference to his arrest at American embassy which is quite noteable. Added it. Should other legal issues be here? 31.168.164.210 (talk) 14:51, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Knesset Member[edit]

Mossi Raz is currently not a Knesset Member, after Meretz did not receive enough seats in the parlement.

Replace Category:People from Jerusalem by Category:Politicians from Jerusalem. Quacelinz3 (talk) 10:40, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done: Thank you, Quacelinz3. I kept Category:People from Jerusalem and added Category:Politicians from Jerusalem since both apply. ––FormalDude^(talk) 22:09, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

He only belongs in the category politicians from Jerusalem because that is a subcategory of the category people from Jerusalem. Politicians from and people from mean he comes from Jerusalem. Only if he would have been a politician of the municipality of Jerusalem he should also have been added to the (non-existing) category Politicians of Jerusalem.
