BIAS

The ENTIRE ARTICLE is EXTREMELY BIASED. When the UN comes to give Israel , or any Israeli its or his or her rights, then they must have first come to give Gaza and any Gazian its , his, her rights, first. If the Israeli infringement of UN treaties is a nuclear bomb, the Hamas infringement of UN treaties is a burning cigarette.

There are many examples of pro-Israeli bias in this and other Wikipedia articles. Unfortunately, modern humanity so often behaves like primitive, superstitious humans of centuries past, but with higher technology multiplying death, suffering and injury many-fold. The justifications used are no better than those of primitive ancestors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.175.236.54 (talk) 21:34, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Accurate rank upon dischargement

According to most israeli news sources, such as this one, Gilad Shalit was dischareged from the I.D.F with the rank of Sergeant First Class (רב-סמל) and not Seargent Major (רב-סמל מתקדם) like this source states.
It is possible that the later source is mistaken due to a mistranslation of sorts.

Therefore, i suggest changeing the rank description back to "Sergeant First Class" a.k.a "Rav Samal" and "Rasal" (רב-סמל, רס"ל).

The accurate rank

@Aroma Stylish: Can you please explain your revert? ImTheIP (talk) 11:08, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Typo

Under the Capture Header under subheader Treatment, "harsly" is said instead of "harshly". I cannot check the source due to paywall if it was initially misspelled. Einail19 (talk) 13:59, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, thanks. Zero^talk 02:14, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
