What was the aim of this massacre?
Actually most of the civilian casualties were done by Israeli security. They blamed it on the JRA fighters afterwards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.79.232.194 (talk) 18:28, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Huge NPOV problem in this article. --Stephenzhu 01:33, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The aim of the so-called massacre was to take over the control tower in support of a larger PFLP operation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.79.232.194 (talk) 20:09, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I find the last statement, that the samurai scene from "The Life of Brian" might represent Japanese participation in the Lod Massacre very, very unlikely. I think it is more likely that the samurai are included because they had a heritage of suicide. I am going to delete this passage. --Minarelli 12:58, 30 May 2008 (GMT)
Hello.
What is the source for the list of victims? isn't a citation needed?
I have a good reason to suspect that the list is not accurate, Since my grandmother, who was murdered in this event, does not appear in it (or were they lying to me all those years?)

This article but repeats the position of Western media and completely ignores what actually happened on that day! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.91.58.51 (talk) 12:22, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There is http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E8%B5%A4%E8%BB%8D%E2%80%951969%E2%86%922001-KAWADE%E5%A4%A2%E3%83%A0%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF/dp/4309976018 I posted this before, but it seems to have been lost some time ago by vandalism of Western foreigners —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.181.143 (talk) 13:01, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
They are interviews and articles written by living JRA fighters. My other sources either refer to this book, or is from the remaining "RED ARMY" factions in Japan, the "MOVEMENT RENTAI" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.186.59 (talk) 14:01, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is much more trustworthy than outright propaganda published by the Western media; for example, they claim that the object of the attack was to kill civilians, and that all the victims were shot by the JRA fighters, while it becomes obvious to anybody who reads the information that it was in fact the Zionist security that caused a large part of the casualty. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.186.59 (talk) 02:26, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Its been decided after some talk, that this and other airport bombings or massacres are not to be put in aviation accident templates or categorized as a aviation accident or incident. If you disagree, don't revert, but instead come over to this discussion[1] and we'll listen to your opinion....William 19:55, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The claim that the weapons were held in "slim violin cases" was added by an anon in 2007 without bringing a source. I'm wondering how solid this information is. Previously the text just read "slim cases", which matches many good sources I could find that just refer to luggage. I do see "violin cases" in some recent sources, but I'm not sure if they are authoritative rather than just copying off each other. Speaking of copying, this book published in 2011 contains a verbatim copy of a paragraph that we had here in 2008. Zerotalk 13:16, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The weapons used were vz. 58 assault rifles, which actually aren't Kalashnikovs at all — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.246.51.117 (talk) 04:20, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In the section "Aftermath" it is claimed that Okamato could have been given the death penalty, however Israel has all but abolished the death penalty and doesn't have pleas, only plea bargains. 93.172.97.189 (talk) 12:47, 30 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. A source cited in the article that says Okamoto "managed to avoid the death penalty by pleading guilty." Do you have a different source that says something contradictory? – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:41, 30 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]The article correctly states that Czech vz. 58 rifles were used however the sidebar summary says "Kalashnikov assault rifles" were used. These are two different types of weapons that are only superficially similar. Sidebar should be updated to match the article.

The introductory sentence is very long: 53 words plus several numbers and one acronym. Please change "1972, in which three" to "1972. Three" This will leave us with one sentence of 12 words and one of 39 words — still very long, but not as bad. 49.198.51.54 (talk) 23:26, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
