Main Picture

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)Reply

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

Name change

edit

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)Reply
