The “Fighting Theory” organization has learned that Wikipedia editors are trying to delete the entry in Wikipedia regarding the fall of the warrior Barel Shmueli 14.
It will be recalled that after the fall of Barel to zero range shooting by a terrorist, a public protest broke out which led the IDF to change the opening fire regulations.
Despite the importance of the event, on January 4, 2022 opened, a vote on Wikipedia on the question of the necessity of the entry and the desire to delete it. The vote is valid until January 11 and is now led by 32 supporters demanding the removal of the entry compared to 20 opponents.
Rabbi Aviad Gadot, director of combat theory, said: “We recognize a trending and forceful attempt to silence the people who demand a fighting spirit and support for the fighters. These are attempts to rewrite history and engineer the consciousness. Every Israeli and every human being. They will not silence the will of the fighter in the very fall: to amend the opening fire regulations and return Jewish morality to the IDF and the “defense system.”
The If You Will movement stated: “The Hindu consciousness attempt will not succeed. There is no doubt that the event of his fall in the barrage in the zero range of Barel 14 is the watershed in the Israeli public in relation to the instructions to open fire. Today many understand that the instructions for opening fire must be changed to prevent more such cases. “The IDF itself also understands this and announced after the public protest that the opening fire regulations have been changed. We call on Wikipedia editors to leave their personal opinions aside and not tarnish Barel’s memory in cheap politics.”
