Translation

I used the Google translation as a starting point for the English article. I have then added a significant amount of human translation. Ydorb 21:02, 17 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

What is right - Rabin or Sharon?

The article states that the PFLP believed Yitzhak Rabin to be on the plane, however in the article about the PFLP it says they believed that Ariel Sharon was on the plane. What is correct? Ulflarsen 14:22, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the Aviation Security article, Khaled says she didn't know at the time, but now says it was Rabin. I'm inclined to say that the Rabin thing is a politically-motivated theory and the PFLP knows itself best (admittedly a gamble for an organization that probably operated on a need-to-know basis), but I don't know why Kaled herself now believes it was Rabin. Could we just say "Israeli VIP" and discuss the ambiguity?--144.92.120.73 04:09, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

She wasn't allowed to visit?

Is there some context for the assertion that she was "not allowed to visit" Haifa, the place of her birth? Did this injunction happen before or after she joined an organization opposed to the existence of Israel? Just wondering. Kaisershatner 14:11, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering? Is that condescension or curiosity? Until I know better, I think "not permitted to visit" was probably just nice language for "Israeli occupation of the town in 1948." Here's the text, which appeared in the Guardian, which was linked from the main article, and will now be added as a citation as well, as suggested: Khaled was born in Haifa, now on the Israeli coast, but became a refugee with her family at a camp in Tyre, Lebanon, as a toddler in 1948. (During her 1969 hijacking of the TWA flight she forced the pilot to fly over Haifa, so that she could look at the home town she was not permitted to visit.) She can barely recall a time when she was not politicised: she remembers at the age of four being told by her mother not to pick oranges because they were in Lebanon; the fruit was not theirs, they were not in Haifa now. She committed herself full-time to armed struggle at the age of 15. --144.92.120.73 03:47, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Im pretty sure with almost certainty she was "not allowed to visit" Haifa as I don't know of any refugees in Lebanon that are allowed to visit old homes or places of birth since the 1948 war. Even more so I don't know that there are even those that are allowed to go to the Israel, West Bank, & Gaza unless they are on official business such as working for news organizations or some other things. Im sure so at what point she joined the PFLP would more then likely make any difference or effect if she was allowed to visit Haifa. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.222.175.180 (talk) 16:41, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Leilakhalednow.JPG

Image:Leilakhalednow.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 23:04, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

She died several years ago

I will try to find a reference. This article is written entirely in the present tense, and the insert refers to a biography of a living person. I am certain that she is dead. Reg nim (talk) 20:41, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

She is still alive most possibly. Kasaalan (talk) 10:03, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I am aware she is still alive and well and living in Amman. PatGallacher (talk) 11:17, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Given that she is emerging in South Africa shortly http://www.ciibroadcasting.com/2015/01/22/zionists-in-a-frenzy-over-leila-khaled-sa-visit/ she certainly isn't dead. Ender's Shadow Snr (talk) 14:15, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Her religion

The article does not mention that she was a Christian. As a matter of fact PLPF was lead by a Christian Dr. George Habbash. All of the hijacking was done by this group, and not by Yasir Arafat's group. I am not blaming her religion for terrorism, but the Americans and Israelies always refers to PLPF hijacking as "Islamic Terrorism". Hassanfarooqi (talk) 20:55, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a source, we'll definitely add it in.Sherurcij (speaker for the dead) 04:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

'Prisoner exchange' or hostage release?

She was released in exchange for further hostages taken in a hijacking Ender's Shadow Snr (talk) 14:13, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

IPA is probably something like /lajlaa xaalid/ [laj'la: 'xa:lid] (Modern Standard Arabic has only /aa ii uu a i u/, no /e/ etc.) Wathiik (talk) 11:21, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request 27 October 2020

Second paragraph in lede doesn't make sense gramatically. Please replace it with the following text:

Khaled came to public attention for her role in the TWA Flight 840 hijacking in 1969 and one of the four simultaneous Dawson's Field hijackings the following year as part of the campaign of Black September in Jordan. The first woman to hijack an airplane,[1] she was later released in a prisoner exchange for civilian hostages kidnapped by her fellow PFLP members.[2][3]

Another instance of Zoom preventing Khaled from using their service

As mentioned in the Later life section of Khaled's article, Khaled's conference at San Francisco State University was blocked by Zoom. This also happened for her New York University webinar "We Will Not Be Silenced" in the fall of 2020. I cannot find a specific date or month for this, but there is a source right here: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/22/nyregion/college-anti-semitism-bds.html
