"non-legitimate Israeli forces"
"non-legitimate Israeli forces"? Why is it so routine to refer to Palestinian militants as terrorists, yet so hard when making reference to Israelis? The Palestinians were ethnically cleansed of the lands they held for hundreds of years. The Israelis that threw them off the land were indeed terrorists. Kindly refer to them as so.
[spelling only corrected above by: --RamuelMRaagas (talk) 10:42, 15 October 2009 (UTC)RamuelMRaagas]
The problem with wikipedia is that their definition of terrorist includes 3 criteria: To be an arab, to be a muslim, & to refuse kissing israeli ass, once you meet these conditions you are dubbed a terrorist.
No mention of terrorism
This article does not meet elementary criteria of objectivity. It is instead a highly partisan piece.
Habash took part in, planned or approved numerous terroristic attacks, especially against airplanes, which are amply documented. These attacks should be mentioned, especially since many innocent civilians died. Context should be given, but the attacks must be mentioned for the sake of historical accuracy. 201.252.201.138 03:52, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- It's funny you mention NPOV... Something you seem to lack. Find neutral sources and add it yourself... 217.72.62.44 13:48, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
I stuck one in. I think it's fair --69.107.95.124 (talk) 08:35, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
No image
The article really needs a picture of Habash. Anyone know how to get a free one? --Al Ameer son (talk) 00:44, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Christianity
In Talk:Christian terrorism there is a discussion where one user (User:Hardyplants) has claimed that Habash gave up Christianity when he was young, based on a single paraphrased quote from a single article. He has been presented with numerous citations from reliable sources as to Habash's Christianity but refuses to back down. I note that this article makes no mention of Habash leaving Christianity. Does anyone have more information or citations to show for sure that Habash was a Christian? 129.215.37.85 (talk) 15:54, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
If you mean Habbash converted to Islam, then by Islamic rule he should have change his name, which he didn't. If you mean he converted or completely abandoned religion then diregard my last comment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michael1408 (talk • contribs) 00:15, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
- That he was born to a Christian family clear and was a christian as a younbg man is clear, but did he remain one? As a communist he was likely an atheist, too. Miacek and his crime-fighting dog | woof! 19:44, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Opening section is contradictory, must be modified
"After the Oslo Agreements, Habash formed another opposition alliance consisting of Rejectionist Front members and Islamist organizations such as Hamas and the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine, that became prominent during the First Intifada."
The First Intifada came before the Oslo Agreements, so how could an alliance formed after the agreement be prominent in the first intifada? This must be clarified. I don't know anything about this - and after reading the opening section, I still don't. Someone who can correct it, should do so.--Barend (talk) 12:28, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
Terrorist?
Calling someone a terrorist is relative to the nation. One man's terrorisit is another man's freedom fighter.

Tell that to the thousands of lebanese he helped killed along with the PLO —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.45.201 (talk) 13:10, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
Date when Palestine National Council supported two-state solution
I have asked for a citation of the claim that the PNC adopted a resolution supporting a two-state solution in 1974. They did so much later (possibly 1994) but certainly not in 1974. At that time the Palestine National Covenant stated that the boundaries of Palestine at the time of the British Mandate was a single indivisible territorial unit belonging to the Palestinian people. I know that this is a highly contentious issue as a whole, but on such a narrow technical point I think both sides can agree that it is worth getting the historical facts and dates right.
