Zionist Regime
minimal content. not a unique phrase. Barbamama 16:09, 3 August 2006 (UTC)


 * The person who set up this Afd is a sockpuppet of a user who is wiki-stalking me. This Afd needs to be deleted. Zeq 05:21, 5 August 2006 (UTC)


 * keep hundreds of thousands of google hits. Zeq 17:02, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. This appears to be a dicdef. Any information that could be added to this article is probably already covered somewhere else in Wikipedia in the relevent articles.   Da rk Sh ik ar i   talk /contribs  17:06, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Israel. --Gray Porpoise 18:20, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Comment - It apeares that the orginator of this Afd is somewhat of a mystory to me. Please avoid voting until it is clarified. see this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Barbamama - kind of strange for first edit......... Zeq 21:12, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * How does my being a mystery to you, or the number of edits I've done, have anything to do with whether or not your article deserves to remain in wikipedia?Barbamama 23:34, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It may have some relevancy because you are the sockpuppet of an indefinitely banned user.--Mantanmoreland 13:05, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment wouldn't redirecting this be a very bad idea? Redirecting Zionist Regime (which is often seen as an insult or disparaging term) to Israel would be like redirecting "miserable failure" to George W. Bush, or "capitalist pig dogs" to the United States.   Da rk Sh ik ar i   talk /contribs  22:35, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know, maybe redirect to Anti-Zionism. --Metropolitan90 01:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete dict def, attack page, and the contents is wrong: it refers the leaders of Israel and not to the state itself. -- Koffieyahoo 01:45, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete somewhere between a speediable attack page and a dictionary definition. Not suitable for wikipedia, not suitable for wiktionary.  GRBerry 02:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Dicdef, attack page. Jayjg (talk) 03:51, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Zionism - if you are searching for Zionist regime, you are probably looking for Zionism. Megapixie 04:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't disagree with any of the comments above. Under normal circumstances (and if this article was more than a few hours old when nominated) I would vote delete. However, this AfD was initiated in bad faith by the sockpuppet of a banned user, and I think that needs to be taken into consideration. Judging from his brief edit history he seemed to be stalking Zeq for some reason.--Mantanmoreland 13:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as dictionary definition. Consider redirecting to Zionism --Wafulz 15:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as propagandist rhetoric that fails to move the discourse toward consensus. --Beware of Cow 16:50, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Since when is that a criteria for deletion ? Megapixie 00:53, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Based on everything I've read, the need to reach consensus is at the core of the Wikipedia philosophy. We discuss until we reach consensus. Under what circumstances will a reasonable Zionist and a reasonable anti-Zionist ever agree on the content of an article called Zionist Regime? This is nothing but a revert war honeypot. Some people live for that stuff, while I'd personally like to see much less. That'll leave us more time to spend reaching consensus on issues that that actually bear upon real people. This isn't it.--Beware of Cow 01:10, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per GRBerry. If a redirect is wanted, Zionist Occupation Government seems best to me. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:06, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This has nothing to do with ZOG. This expression is exactlu what the article sais about it. It has hundreds of thousands of google hits. look it up Zeq 05:19, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Even Iran's Ahmadinejad wants to delete the article. Not long after it was created, he said: "The real cure for the conflict is...elimination of Zionist regime."--Beware of Cow 17:58, 5 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Redirect as dicdef to Arab-Israeli conflict or suchlike, I guess, but not to Israel, as this could be seen as support for this appellation. It's not an attack page, IMHO, as this slur is indeed widely used by e.g. Iranian officialdom, but certainly it's not an euphemism, either... Sandstein 20:50, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unsuitable as a redirect, not really notable as a stand-alone phrase. Eluchil404 21:43, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete This is an encyclopedia, not a soapbox. Eusebeus 16:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Zionism. Notable as phrase, but there's no possible content.  &mdash; Arthur Rubin |  (talk) 01:14, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
