Removal of my edit[edit]

So I edit the page, add my sources, which is Shazly himslef !, and correct the farce of a mistake of saying that Shazly retreated without a single loss of equipment when Shazly himself says he lost 80% of his tanks, and the editor deletes it and says "relatively few losses". Looks like someone is just trying to make a victory out of anything in the humiliated 1967 defeat of Egypt. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.58.193.99 (talk) 22:26, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copied paragraph[edit]

There is a paragraph which is copied from here.Tushyk (talk) 09:46, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there infringement from that site. I tracked down at least one of the infringing edits. [1] was copied from the 2005 version of a page on that site. Unfortunately, that edit was way back in May 2006. Superm401 - Talk 21:14, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

War Crimes[edit]

This needs a discussion of war crimes. Gen. Shazly issued an order in pamphlet form that suggested killing surrendering IDF soldiers. -G (talk) 19:21, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That needs sources, not blanket statements. nableezy - 19:23, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
