I created this page following a discussion to convert the category to a list and expand the content beyond wars to armed conflicts in order to incorporate smaller armed conflicts which may not fall under the scope of "war." There are other similar articles, which I modelled this article after, such as this List of conflicts in the Near East and this List of conflicts in Egypt. It should be a comprehensive history from around 1000 BCE through modern times. The list can be expanded to include earlier conflicts, but these are mostly biblical stories and not necessarily historical ones. Please share specific issues with this article. I believe it is parallel to the other articles I brought in this reply, just for a different region. IshChasidecha (talk) 18:32, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

pre-Israel[edit]

Does this include before Israel was established, such as the Battle of Megiddo (15th century BC)? I think including preceding conflicts like this would add a lot to the article Alexanderkowal (talk) 18:06, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does this count? Battle of Panium Alexanderkowal (talk) 18:17, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the Mongol invasions of the Levant Alexanderkowal (talk) 18:26, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! Thank you for the suggestions. All of these are definitely worth incorporating. As per your first question, the list does theoretically include conflicts before the founding of the Kingdom of Israel, but I was hesitant to include early Biblical stories that lack historical backing (maybe they will be included later with an asterisk?), and I was unfamiliar with the Battle of Megiddo, so I just didn't make that section. The other suggestions you raised are also great. Thanks so much for contributing! I'll try to add them in the next couple days, unless you'd like to do it before then.

That’s okay, I’ll let you do it, it’s a really great idea for a list, very well done as well. There are lots of battles and conquests of Israel that don’t have their own articles, and I’m not sure what would be the best way to go about that. We could note each time it’s changed hands and research each time specifically, and include red links that are cited? Idk if that’d be too intensive Alexanderkowal (talk) 21:36, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
