Hello, I don't understand why there is an entry "Israel(proper)" in the "Israel occupied territories" section. It's taking the bias very far.

In light of the new developments, please remove from this section the phrase "Only three members of the Arab League have normalized relations with Israel:", since other Arab countries are establishing relations with Israel (maybe it could be replaced for "Among members of the Arab League that have normalized relations with Israel..."). Also, after where it says "Mauritania opted for full diplomatic relations with Israel in 1999.", please add the following text:
As part of the 2020 Abraham Accords, Israel established relations with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrein, Sudan and Morocco. [1]
For the same reason Sudan should be removed from the list of enemy countries in the following sentence. Also the sentence "As a result of the 2008–09 Gaza War, Mauritania, Qatar, Bolivia, and Venezuela suspended political and economic ties with Israel." should be replaced for the following text:
As a result of the 2008–09 Gaza War, Mauritania, Qatar, Bolivia, and Venezuela suspended political and economic ties with Israel, [2] [3] although Bolivia renewed ties in November 2019. [4]

It is now clear that Israel is a true democracy in its broadest sense only for its Jewish citizens. The Arab-Israeli (or, as some prefer, the Palestinian-Israeli) peoples, roughly 20 percent of the total population of Israel its pre-1967 boundaries, are citizens and have voting rights, but they face political, economic, and social discrimination. And, of course, Israeli democracy is inapplicable to the nearly 4 million Palestinian Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza, conquered by Israel in June 1967, who are occupied, repressed, and in many ways, directly and indirectly, effectively ruled by Israel.and Ben White (15 January 2012).

Israel has occupied the West Bank since the six-day war and it has established many settlements in certain parts of the region. I believe it should be marked as a disputed territory in a light green color similar to other territorial disputes like North/South Korea. This move is not meant for any political reasons or acknowledged of one side over the other but simply to better reflect the current situation. Albert257 ( talk) 02:17, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

@ Watchlonly: Can you explain why you removed the footnotes in this diff [7]? They were added a month ago by Danloud and I think they are a good idea as they reduce clutter. The Hebrew and Arabic name is in the infobox on the right. It is perhaps inadvisable to take reverts of your edits personally. ImTheIP ( talk) 02:11, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

In dealing with speakers of English in the Philippines, it appears that the spelling Ysrael is sometimes used in various contexts, including those to the Modern state of Israel. Given that Yisrael is a redirect to this page, does anyone have an issue with adding Ysrael as a redirect? Naraht ( talk) 13:40, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

It is incorrectly stated that 'Jerusalem' is the capital of Israel. This can cause much confusion as the correct capital of Israel is 'West Jerusalem' where 'East Jerusalem' is the capital of Palestine. 82.46.82.216 ( talk) 04:13, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Israel has occupied the West Bank since the six-day war and it has established many settlements in certain parts of the region. I believe it should be marked as a disputed territory in a light green color similar to other territorial disputes like North/South Korea. This move is not meant for any political reasons or acknowledged of one side over the other but simply to better reflect the current situation. Albert257 ( talk) 02:17, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
