[edit] Israelisms

Do not recreate material that has been through a valid AfD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Israelisms) just because you disagree. If you want to challenge the deletion then go to Wikipedia:Deletion review. If you recreate the article you could end up being blocked for disruption.

The first time was because, even though you do not agree, it went through a valid "Articles for deletion" (AfD), as I pointed out to you above. Also if you look at the AfD you can see that it was another editor that deleted the original article. The second deletion, by me, was because reposted material is supposed to be deleted as per Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Criteria, look at General criteria #4.
The AfD is valid because they are not votes and the large number of Wikipedia:Single purpose accounts that took part in it. Although you can't see the deletions, (you can get another administrator to check for you), it was originally tagged as a "Speedy delete" as "spam". I had actually removed the tag due to my feeling that it was an invalid reason, followed by an attempt to clean the article and some discussion at User talk:Staceyferguson (who created the article).
Finally if you had not been so rude as to go to my talk page and leave this accusation I might have been willing to help you with Wikipedia:Deletion review. The message that you are referring to is neither private nor a threat. It is the message prior to this one and is quite public and just a warning.

The article was not fast tracked as you put it. Normal time for a AfD is 5 days, this one lasted 8 days. Fast tracking is a speedy delete which as I told you I removed. As to the "threat" it is simply not there. I said that you "...could end up being blocked for disruption." not that I would block you so please do not make false remarks. I never said the article was spam, in fact, again, I removed the spam tag and helped clean up the article. Once again if you feel the orignal AfD closure was incorrect then take it up with the closing admin or go to deletion review. If you read through the AfD you will see that I never even took part in it. As I pointed out to you before I deleted it a second time because nothing was added to the article to indicate that it was any more notable than the original as thus was required by policy to be deleted. It just happened to be me rather than another admin. Finally, if you really think that I am threating you or should not have made the second deletion then I suggest you make a complaint at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents or Wikipedia:Requests for comment.
