Baalbek as stronhold

[edit]

The sentence 'Baalbek is a Hezbollah stronghold' must be removed. Unless you add to this that this heritage site is under threat by the israeli terrorist state. The sited sources are blatantly bias in favor of israel - also the timing of the addition of this statement is completely obvious, why was this not added before israel began their genocide and propoganda campaign? Not donating a cent further until this is removed LiamL1996 (talk) 14:40, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody cares about your donations friend. And the sources in question are academic sources that meet WP:BESTSOURCE standards. I'm not exactly a pro-Israel editor. In fact I've caught a fair bit of flack for criticizing the IDF in the past. I'm telling you that all you're doing with these repeated edit requests is annoying a few editors who are not going to act on them. Simonm223 (talk) 14:46, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This was not a proper edit request as required by new editors to an ARBPIA topic and really should have just been reverted. Ditto the IP. Much simpler and sends the appropriate message. I understand why you are doing this though. Doug Weller talk 14:55, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah. I'm trying to be nice. ;) Simonm223 (talk) 15:02, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Baalbek is NOT a stronghold of Hamas. This is a lie. 2A00:23C6:B606:6501:D87E:6C5B:30E4:5E24 (talk) 18:25, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

While the extended-confirmed-protected edit request was poorly formatted, it doesn't make sense to ask someone to source a negative claim. TurboSuperA+ () 10:06, 18 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Article refers to Hezbollah, not Hamas. Statements appear to be sourced. LizardJr8 (talk) 20:36, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The following sentance should be added after the existing sentence. "In Islamic mythology, the temple complex was said to have been a palace of Solomon's" ...

Jewish traveler Benjamin of Tudela suggests in his 12th century travels that it was thought to be 'Baalath in the plains of Lebanon, and which Solomon built for the daughter of Pharaoh' (reference: The Itinerary of Benjamin of Tudela. trans.
