Migration of template content to decades templates[edit]

In my opinion this template is redundant since it provides essentially the same identical information as in the templates template:Palestinian militancy attacks in the 1960s, template:Palestinian militancy attacks in the 1970s and template:Palestinian militancy attacks in the 1980s. It seems ridiculous to have all these separate templates sharing the same info. Therefore I suggest that we'll merge the content of this template into the three templates aforementioned.

You are speaking of defferent templates - this one is a campaignbox (conflict timeline), not a navbox (a collection of data): there are different guidelines for those types. This campaignbox helps to link Israeli retaliations and Palestinian attacks/counterattacks.Greyshark09 (talk) 20:18, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm curious as to the naming of all Palestinian operations as 'massacres', when Israeli actions are not labelled in such a way. Surely this is naive in the context of the post 67 switch to asymetric warfare by the pro-palestinian forces; attacking soft targets is the defining factor of such conflicts, not to mention the bias of such obviously emotive terms regarding one party in contrast with the clinical language used toward the other. This could easily paint a picture that in general the Israeli actions are good/necessary while Palestinian ones are purely terrorist in nature/evil, and while perhaps reflecting a generalised view of western leaders does not reflect a world view. Just some thoughts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.212.26 (talk) 14:47, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
