Talk:1994 Brooklyn Bridge shooting

Terrorist act edit

To Alensohn: The Justice Department formally classified the incident as an act of terrorism. Whats wrong then with stating in the intro that it was a terrorist act? There does not even seem to be another POV sayin it was not a terrorist act. Is there a specific reason you don't want it to say that? Shlomke 23:34, 27 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • Is there a source that supports this? Place it in the article, and I'm 100% in agreement. Alansohn 06:47, 28 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
Done. Shlomke 16:16, 11 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Opinion contrary to facts deleted edit

Material unrelated to the incident, and in fact in contradiction to the Defendant's own explanation of his actions, has been deleted.Edstat 17:17, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Bobover? edit

I think the connection to Bobov is irrelevant. Both Ari Halberstam's family and the Bobover dynasty are descendants of Rabbi Chaim Halberstam of Sanz, but they have nothing else in common. More relevant, I think, is that Rabbi Meir Halberstam, the Tshakover Rebbe of Bnei Berak is (was? he is alive) Ari's grandfather, and Rabbi Naftali (Naftule) Halberstam, the Tshakover Rebbe of Jerusalem, and Rabbi Moshe Halberstam zt"l of the Edah HaChareidis are/were his great-uncles.

Proposed merger of Ari Halberstam and Brooklyn Bridge shooting edit

According to WP:OneEvent, I believe this article should be merged with the more general Brooklyn Bridge shooting article. Thoughts? Would this somehow not apply to murder victims? ShamWow (talk) 05:12, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

After three years with no discussion, I conclude that this does fall under WP:ONEEVENT and the two articles have been merged. WTF? (talk) 23:33, 11 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Bad tagging edit

Why is this linked to the "Islamic terrorism" page? I don't see Islam or references to Islam in this story, and I don't think the page deserves that link. Is there an Arab terrorism page it can be filed under? BrotherSulayman (talk) 08:32, 3 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
