[edit] Discussion on the article

Here is some stuff I removed. Because it is all highly controversial, it needs attribution. For example, when did he admit his error, and what exactly did he say? Why is it important that Ya'alon was present on 6 April 2002? Was the condemnation of Halutz by the Knesset extended to him, or was it just Halutz?

Also in what context did Ya'alon say (or not say) "we won"?

Yaalon has admitted his greatest error as Ramat Kal was allowing Air Force Chief Dan Halutz convince him to drop a 1000 kilogram bomb on an over-populated Palestinian apartment building which killed 11 innocent children.

Yaalon stood by foolishly when Halutz crowed in a public briefing on 6 April 2002, "the IDF has the highest combat ethics of any army in the world," and told his pilots, "you are not responsible for the contents of that target. Your execution was perfect. You were wonderful."

Knesset members Yossi Sarid, Zahava Galon & Silvan Shalom equated the statement to admitting state terrorism by IDF's generals.

Yaalon candidly admitted his part in the operation which killed ll children, to Haaretz Newspaper on 27 August 2002, "the Palestinian threat harbors cancer like attributes that have to be severed.There are all kinds of solutions to cancer. Some say it's necessary to amputate organs but at the moment I am applying chemotheraphy."

With Sharons announcement of evacuating Gaza, Yaalon will fight cancer by removing the patient, in this case-Israel, out of the cancer area which will effect a 100% cancer cure.

The part removed is very unaccurate, to say the least. Very POV and clearly be classtified as incitement. Also to note that similiar paragraphs were removed from the article on Shaul Mofaz. The paragraph in the head of the Disscussion page is clearly an incitement propganda, as it suggests that Yaalon is worse as a Nazi. I also think that it is against Wikipedia rules and should be removed even from the Disscussion page. Nevertheless, I would like to hear more Wiki senior user or admin opinion on the "Incitement against Yaalon" paragraph. Thanks. MathKnight 18:56, 5 Mar 2004 (UTC)

If you wish to assert that "all IDF authority is in the hands of Halutz" then we need a reference for that. It would be a controversial allegation that a deputy has more power than his chief. DJ Clayworth 17:39, 9 Feb 2004 (UTC)

You are adding to this article statements which have nothing to do with Moshe Ya'alon. If you want to write things about Dan Haluts, please create and article for him and add them to that. Also the things you are saying about Ya'alon are matters of interpretation. I doubt very much that Ya'alon would agree with them. Please read Wikipedia:Neutral point of view to find out about the way we would like articles to be written in Wikipedia. DJ Clayworth 20:23, 9 Feb 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Copywrite Violation

A while ago this edit was made " 19:49, 3 March 2004 MathKnight (added more bio info, removed political debates and speculations)" which was a copywrite violation of this page. Since this copywritten paragraph is still almost verbatim, I am reverting the entire article, and sections that were not copywrite violations can be readded as needed.

[edit] April 18, 1996 event and lawsuit

Does anybody know whatever happened to this suit?

Two of the CCR lawyers listed at the bottom also represent fascists at GTMO, and I was wondering if that connection was worth mentioning.
