Jordan Cope (October 10, 2024). "It's time to correct Wikipedia's dangerous anti-Israel bias - opinion". The Jerusalem Post. Retrieved October 10, 2024. Wikipedia has also actively promoted erasure of Israeli identity. In July 2024, Hezbollah killed 12 Druze children playing soccer in the Golan Heights. On its entry page documenting the incident, Wikipedia referred to the victims simply as "Syrian children," despite a 2020 poll revealing that "61 percent of Israeli Druze" feel "very much" like "real Israeli[s]." Wikipedia's mischaracterization seemingly sought to downplay Israel's multi-pluralism and the possibility that Israelis could actually be the victim of Middle East terrorism.
I agree and the inline source right next to the sentence says " killed a dozen Syrian children and young adults".VR(Please ping on reply)13:32, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see my edit has already been reverted. I checked many of the main sources, and aside from the two mentioned (LA Times and Mondoweiss, the latter not really mainstream), none used 'Syrian' in their own voice to describe the casualties. However, if there's consensus on the matter, who am I to argue? While I don’t believe the current version represents the best reliable sources, I’ll go with your version, guys.

Change "Syrian children belonging to the Druze community" to "Druze-Israeli children". Druze isn't a community , it's a religion of an Arab minority. Remove "(according to Israel and the USA)" under "perpetrator", as Hezbollah confirmed the attack.
Madjal Shams is an Israeli Druze town. It's not a Syrian town. These kids were Israeli, and spoke Hebrew and Arabic as one. It's a town where a lot of teens choose to ennlist in the IDF post high school. Please correct that, as it's harmful and disrespectful to the Druze Israeli families to be called Syrian, after they escaped Syrian hatred. AnoBamba (talk) 13:51, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
