Over-categorization - Jewish[edit]

Some of the recent category additions to this article seem to overemphasize Jews/Jewish. There are four categories in this article that reference Jews/Jewish. Why should there be more than one? Some of the categories are controversial or are being considered for deletion. In addition, according to WP:BLPCAT:

Categories regarding religious beliefs...should not be used unless two criteria are met:

1. The subject publicly self-identifies with the belief...in question;

2. The subject's beliefs...are relevant to the subject's notable activities or public life, according to reliable published sources.

I don't see that either of these criteria are met for this article. I plan to revert the category changes in a few days unless someone makes a substantive argument to the contrary. hulmem (talk) 04:21, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Life[edit]

I am removing the references to what the kidnappers or his personal assistant did once they got out of jail - it has no relevance to the subject of the article Karnak (talk) 14:34, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
