Talk:Arab–Israeli conflict

Extended-protected edit request, 30 December 2023
Greece should be removed from the infobox, since it didn't let the U.S. use its bases to support the airlift in 1973.

"During the 1973 Yom Kippur war, the U.S. arms airlift to Israel was seriously complicated by the denial of transit bases in Spain, Turkey, and Greece and overflight rights in other NATO areas."



"On October 22, 1973, MAC changed the route to fly south of Crete, to comply with a request from the Greek Government...... This zigzagging route was used because the United States could not obtain diplomatic clearance to use bases, which MAC usually used, in the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Greece and Turkey."



"Secondly, during the October 1973 War, Greece observed strict neutrality and refused land, air or port facilities for the airlift of American supplies to Israel. As the Greek Foreign Minister flatly stated, U.S. bases in Greece had "nothing to do with the Arab-Israeli war'."

 * ✅ I checked the source given in the infobox and found that it also emphasises Greek neutrality in 1973. So there is no case for keeping it. I'll also take the opportunity to complain in general about the "Supported by" sections of these infoboxes, which often list countries whose contribution was trivial. "Portugal" should be checked too. Zerotalk 04:06, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Greece
Greece did not support Israel in the 1973 war, it declared neutrality and didn't allow the U.S. to use its bases for the airlift, it should be removed from the infobox. -- 2804:29B8:5183:100C:D1BA:C8A:C094:DF5B (talk) 22:36, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: The source says "Pakistan has a mixed and complex track record concerning the Arab- Israeli conflict" and "various Pakistani leaders have pursued a pragmatic approach toward Israel and its conflict with the Arabs".

Update info in the Template
In the Israeli side,

There are over 5,000 Israeli civilian victims. Only in 1947-2022 over 4,200 Israeli civilians were killed, not including over 800 Israeli civilians were killed in 2023. Showing less than 1,800 Israeli civilians were killed is misleading. IdanST (talk) 16:27, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Subset
What argument are you basing this claim on? The Israeli-Palestinian conflict dates back to early 1900s, meanwhile first instance of the Arab-Israeli conflict came later around 1920. Also, Jordan and Egypt making peace with Israel clearly hasn't solved the IP conflict. Makeandtoss (talk) 13:24, 26 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Palestinians are Arabs, not Arabs are Palestinians. Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the core of this conflict. Parham wiki (talk) 04:11, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
