[edit] Operation Entebbe

I reverted the change of the wikilink from Operation Thunderbolt back to the original Operation Entebbe. The Wikipedia article title is Operation Entebbe, and as an editor notes on that article's Talk page, "In Israel the operation is popularly known as "operation Entebbe", and officialy as "operation Yonatan". No one (except Hollywood) really calls it "Operation Thunderbolt". MCB 23:26, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Well argued. I won't revert back. But it is interesting... in the U.K. it's either known as Operation Thunderbolt or "Raid on Entebbe". Dweller 08:55, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Interesting, thanks for the message. Here in the U.S. we mostly just say "Raid on Entebbe" as well, and I think there was a (TV?) movie by that name. But I'm willing to accept the established article name as well as the note from an Israeli editor. Cheers, MCB 00:54, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
