"Israel-Arab war"

I would love to know who made up this term, this war, and the fact that death penality could be used because of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.86.98.107 (talk) 19:24, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I take it you were referring to the (now long-since deleted) wikilink to the 1948 Arab–Israeli War article. Clearly both sides have their own names for this conflict (the Israeli War of Independence on one side, al-Naqba on the other) and so many years ago here on Wikipedia an agreement was brokered for a neutral name to use. As far as capital punishment goes, in times past most militaries did maintain capital punishment for wartime offences (vast numbers were shot by both sides in firing squads in the first world war, for instance.) In Israel's case there was one execution Meir Tobiansky and the subsequent outcry following his exoneration led to Israel becoming a de facto abolitionist country.165.225.81.100 (talk) 09:36, 7 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mossad

Why was the comment about Mossad agents executing people removed? Capital punishment, by definition, is a government agency killing people due to a crime they are believed to have committed. When Mossad is killing someone due to being suspected of terrorism, it is a form of (illegal) capital punishment in action. 88.112.61.122 (talk) 15:51, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An Intel agency (such as Mossad, CIA, MI5 etc) killing humans in the line of duty is not considered capital punishment. It is not punishing for crimes but merly the prevention of future crimes / acts of terror or in order to instore fear amongst the protagonists or ennemies of state. An Intel agency kills enemies, not criminals. It eliminates them and does not punish. Domozy (talk) 10:06, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

>Because it is extrajudicial. Capital punishment is judicial. Capital punishment by its definition is legal in the country it is happening. For that reason, I removed that section (again) along with the Ali-Reza Asgari theory, which was improperly cited as fact, when it has always been no more than a theory. Ali-Reza Asgari's death has not been confirmed in any location. A political blog like Tikun Olam is not a valid encyclopedic source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Throwawaygull (talk • contribs) 18:41, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

An execution is done in a controlled environment. It's not like sending a squad car to pick them up is an option in these situations. 109.64.66.130 (talk) 11:58, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

clarification

There is no source provided for what is supposedly "generally accepted" "that one of the reasons for Israel's rare use of the death penalty is Jewish religious law" (quoting the religious law source, doesn't demonstrate this. If it's widely accepted, there should be somewhere that says it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unchartered (talk • contribs) 09:12, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
