Talk:Benzion Netanyahu

Any change to put a picture of young Benzion Netanyahu instead picture of him at age 99 years old? He born in 1910 so even a picture from his 30s can be upload to Commons regarding copyright. Sokuya (talk) 21:23, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

A better picture is definitely needed. The current photo is terribly blurry.--Geewhiz (talk) 06:45, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

I suggest removing the sentence "It was a common practice for Zionist immigrants at the time to adopt a Hebrew name. Nathan Mileikowsky began signing some of the articles he wrote "Netanyahu", the Hebrew version of his first name". This is a wrong interpretation of the cited source. "Natan" is a jewish name. It means "He gave" in Hebrew. "Natanyahu" means "god gave" in Hebrew. BOTH names are Hebrew names thus the claim that - "Netanyahu", the Hebrew version of his first name. is not correct. Also the cited source refers to the FAMILY name and not the first name. Taran te (talk) 06:14, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

His birth name in Poland was "Bensyjon" not "Benzion". Please correct, thanks. 66.209.57.5 (talk) 01:42, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

Do you have a source for this? Day Creature (talk) 18:00, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

 Not done I have found two sources saying his name was Benzion: https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/benzion-netanyahu?utm + https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2012/04/benzion-netanyahu-emeritus-dies-102?utm plus a google search for "Bensyjon Mileikowsky" which gave zero results. It seems that the proposed correction is incorrect. Lova Falk (talk) 13:16, 7 April 2025 (UTC)

Description of suggested change: Change the death location to just Jerusalem, Israel. Even with the disputed status of Jerusalem, he lived in the Balfour Residence (Bibi: My Story) which is in West Jerusalem inside the pre-1967 lines. There is no reason to claim he passed away in "Israel/Palestine" Diff:

Hi 132.238.145.157. I do understand your request, but I won't perform it, because both the State of Israel and the State of Palestine claim Jerusalem as their capital city. Lova Falk (talk) 10:31, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Poland didn't exist in 1910, it's a fatal error. 2A02:AA1:1145:49A0:F235:E854:E52D:B282 (talk) 15:55, 8 September 2025 (UTC)

Fixed Quite correct, thank you! Lova Falk (talk) 14:44, 16 September 2025 (UTC)
