@Twofingered Typist: Many thanks for your edits. Could you please see if I've done it correctly? This is the source backing the sentence. Should there be any changes to the DYK hook? Thanks.--Mhhossein ^talk 19:25, 10 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

This is fine. I cited the sentence in the lead as well since it is a serious accusation. Twofingered Typist (talk) 20:18, 10 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

@GreenC: Hi, What's your idea regarding this edit? The book is originally in Hebrew and was translated to English. --Mhhossein ^talk 18:32, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

It was not published in Hebrew by Random House - and it had (probably) a different page count. I would place both with /s if you have reliable info, or if only English - state "English (translated from Hewbrew)".Icewhiz (talk) 19:14, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Mistake, apparently, but some things are still murky

On pp. 19-20 in this book Bergman writes that it was Lehi that was behind the 1946 British Embassy bombing: I don't think so...it was the Irgun.

At least that is who claimed the responsibility, according to this newsreel (and according to the sources cited in the Wikipedia article.) The newsreel is problematic though...it claims 2 people were dead, while other sources claim none were killed, but 2 people were wounded, (and Bergman claim 3 people injured) Huldra (talk) 21:31, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
