My concern is that it is being used for political POV and to spread anti-Armenian feelings. The next thing we want is more tension between the two sides. Both sides must put aside their little differeances and recognize and respect their greater similiarities. This is not a political forum this is an encycolpidia. ] | |||

I ment to place it with land borders with Russia. Sweden was mssing from the neighbours that are near through water borders. I don't remembers eeing Norway. Anyways, it was a mistake on my part to put it with the sea borders; I meant land borders. I guess it was already there and I overlooked it. ] | |||

Hello Azari fellow editor, why don't you create a username? It's easier to identify you and is more respectable in Wiki community, sometimes ip addresses get confusing.

Dear Mr/Mrs 69.196.164.190, thanks for your kind reminds, I don't really know much about Azerbaijani literature and I try not to post anything on the subject I am not familiar with. I am more interested in finding the discrepancies and inconsistencies. | |||

==A Plea== | |||
Hello, | |||
We've had some discussions in the talk page of the Israel-Lebanon conflict article, where you've repeatedly made allegations against Israel in general and against various editors- including me- as if they have been systematically sowing propaganda inside the article. | |||
Look, you don't look like a real hate-addict to me. You even ended one of your messages with "God bless", which means you believe in God, which- I hope- means that you believe in basic tenets of human decency. That means that you, like me, hate to see the innocent Lebanese citizens suffering. That also means that you, like me- again, I hope- see that when innocent Israeli citizens die, that is very sad and tragic as well. | |||
I say "innocent Israeli people" because you seem not to accept that, that there is such a thing at all as innocent Israeli people. But there is. Even if Israel was founded based on only violence and war crimes, which I believe it wasn't but even if it was, Israel is full of people who were born into this conflict, who did not choose any of it or its history. Spain has a history of war crimes, the United States has a history of war crimes, England has a history of war crimes, practically every nation has seen a dark hour of morality fluctuation when it was in a desparate time and feared for its life, or in a trance of ecstasy trying to conquer more resources, more land. If that were enough to condemn a whole nation for eternity, then the whole world is as permanently condemned as Israel is, if not more so. After all there have been countless war crimes in the long, long history of mankind, and Israel is only 50-some years old. | |||
I don't know where and how you got to the point of view you have now about Israel and the kind of people in it, who told you that we're terrorists and peace-haters and so forth and so on by our nature. I sense, however, that somebody, or several people, have told you all about it. Probably people you trust, people whose words you value and think to be the absolute truth. I am not saying that they are bad people or that they are lying to you. It's good to trust other people, they often mean well. But please do consider that maybe your whole view of Israel's history and people isn't as complete as you thought it was, maybe there's another side to the issue and it's not so black and white. You're on the internet, after all. If there ever was a place to gain a broader perspective on an issue, this is it. I question all the time whether the things I've been fed in school, by my parents, by authority figures in my life, whether these are actually correct or just the result of the one-sided bias of my environment and the people I've spent my life listening to. It's a good thing to do. I understand where some of the people who support Hezbollah in Lebanon or Hamas in the PA are coming from- not accept, but at least ''understand''. I think the same can be applied to us. We're people. Rational, feeling, thinking people. We're not Devil Spawn. | |||
I don't know whether our leadership actually spreads illusions of peace while trying to get away from it, like you said. I know what the people on the street here crave, though, and that really is peace. They want to live and let live, and have tragically been dragged to a crusade inside Lebanon for pure fear of those who have openly declared they won't let them live, the Hezbollah. Ask any Israeli on the street whether they'd be for lasting peace in the region and they'll answer, "Inshallah". Or "Im Irze Hashem", that's the same thing in Hebrew. Sure, you can tell them that the territory never belonged to them in the first place, but what's that to them? They were BORN here. Imagine that you were born into a place like this, disputed territory that others claim as their own. Would you give up your right to be there, to live your life, just because of that?... | |||
I guess what this is all leading up to is, I experience Israel as a much brighter land and culture than you've described it as, and personally I am not on any sort of mission to twist Misplaced Pages to any end except for adherence to the NPoV policy. Like I said on the talk page, I am eager for the facts to speak for themselves- and if the facts really do say that Israel is a terrorist, money-sucking nation or whatnot, I will not silence them in any way. And I would really appreciate it if you would please stop making these accusations over at the talk page of that article; believe me, Misplaced Pages's editors are ''very'' aware that people with agendas are lurking around the corner waiting to inject PoV and propaganda into the article. You don't need to warn them. And similarly, all the allegations against Israel on a political level in the article are serving no purpose except to ignite heated discussion which has probably been done over and over again in more appropriate forums. | |||
If you want to bring the Arab/Hezbollah perspective of this conflict to this article, you're very welcome. You certainly seem very passionate about that and passion is a good thing when doing work, it means you'll do your work well. Just make sure that you adhere to Misplaced Pages's guidelines. They're not very difficult to adhere to and they say what sort of sources we can use, what you can or can't talk about in an article's talk page, etc., to stop Misplaced Pages from becoming a PoV battleground- in fact, also to stop the very same Israeli PoV pushers you're so adamant about preventing from ruining it. If you haven't yet, you can go read ] to understand why and how it works. And the points you make about Israel's history and its crimes as a nation can find their home in a better forum, where that kind of discussion is what they're looking for, not in Misplaced Pages where the first priority is to achieve common ground rather than to make points. | |||
I hope this plea hasn't fallen on deaf ears. Certainly I am already preparing for your response, adamantly insisting, no, Israel has no right to exist, it is based on a policy of bloodshed and should be eliminated. I earnestly hope not but somehow I fear that that would be the case. I will not tell you to stop thinking that (who am I to do that). But in that case I still at least ask that you respect Misplaced Pages policy. That's not too much to ask, I think. --] 05:07, 11 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Reponse == | |||
I'm very happy to know that you see that there are victims on all sides. I'm sorry if I offended you by assuming that you didn't see that, but... Sadly, many do not. | |||
Yes, I know that most of the Rabbis were against the foundation of a Jewish state in Israel- it's stuck in my head together with the rest of the heaps upon heaps of headache-inducing information from my history final exam. And I understand what you're saying about the "holy land" being much more and I absolutely agree, land is not holy, the only thing sacred is Man (Man is in God as God is in Man). But, you know... I was born here. My holy land is that tree I see every day when I walk out of my house, the people I know who live here too, the unbearably hot weather, the culture here, my friends, my family. I'm sure you have a Holy Land like that for yourself and you love it the same way I love mine. That decision to form Israel... Maybe it was right, maybe it was wrong. It has caused suffering, it has spared people from suffering. What if it hadn't been founded? Who knows? The important thing is that it's here now, and people are living in it now, people who are very scared of Islamic fundamentalists like Mahmoud Ahmedinajad who call for their destruction and say that they are the people who are to blame for all the wars in history and things like that. The average person on the street hears that and thinks, what! I never started a war! I never 'sucked money' out of anybody, I never were a bother to Ahmedinajad or any Arab in my life, why can't we solve this in a way which doesn't involve the destruction of my home? And as these voices calling for the destruction of his home grow louder that person's heart grows thicker with intolerance and survival instinct. So he wages war on where these voices, and the missiles backing up these voices, are coming from. That's human nature, the ] instinct unmistakably showing. As I said we're starving for peace here. If only Hezbollah were to say, okay, yes, we acknowledge your right to be in Israel, we will not take any more of your soldiers and not fire any more rockets at you period- not for a limited time or as a temporary settlement, period--, and you just stay there and let the population of Lebanon prosper -- and we could honestly believe them. If only. | |||
As for Iran's involvement and it being "dragged" into this, I don't know what degree of alleged involvement you're referring to when you're saying "dragged", because as far as I know it's undisputed that they've manufactured missiles and sent them to Hezbollah. But one way or the other, again, there's Misplaced Pages policy to rule on this matter. I haven't looked into the sources that are being used to show that IRA was among Hezbollah in there, so I don't know whether they meet ]. Certainly I haven't promised anybody to automatically insert any information just because it would tie Iran to the conflict, and you may have mistaken my simple promise to another editor to look into what he wants me to edit and see whether his proposed edit is acceptable and what I can do for him for a flat-out agreement to cooperate with him on inserting whatever he pleases into the article, which I decidedly did not do. Either way that's what we have policy for. And worry not- you said it yourself, the truth always wins in the end. I often feel comforted by that fact, even if the truth isn't always the most comfortable to me. --] 06:00, 11 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
