[edit] "non-letigimate Israeli forces"

"non-letigimate 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 clensed 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.

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.

[edit] 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)

[edit] 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)

[edit] 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)
