Editing Talk:2024 Iran–Israel conflict (section)

== Change title to Iran-Israel war ==

might be a little early but Iran has indicated they consider Israel's operation a direct declaration of war. https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/jun/13/israel-iran-strikes-defence-minister-tehran-middle-east-live [[User:Fakeloser|Fakeloser]] ([[User talk:Fakeloser|talk]]) 11:42, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
*Indeed, changing the title to war is too early. I hope it won't be necessary. [[User:Lova Falk|Lova Falk]] ([[User talk:Lova Falk|talk]]) 13:55, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

*Agree. It’s a war confirmed by both sides. [[Special:Contributions/2603:7001:7340:33:7DA4:7271:631C:A7AB|2603:7001:7340:33:7DA4:7271:631C:A7AB]] ([[User talk:2603:7001:7340:33:7DA4:7271:631C:A7AB|talk]]) 02:36, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

:*Wars involve major military attacks involving large scale destruction and death.The idea of "conflict" began in the Korean War, where the government and media referred to it as a "police action", before that was seen as a milk toast attempt at public appeasement and it was rightly referred to as a 'war'. This sort of phraseology is often employed  when it involves a controversial issue. -- [[User:Gwillhickers|''Gwillhickers'']] ([[User talk:Gwillhickers |talk]]).
:*I am [[WP:TOOSOON|still]] in support of terms such as "attack" or "conflict." The media's reports are not yet settling on a single term; one could reasonably speculate that "war" happens, for most media, only when ground troops get involved. Bombing, it seems, however heavy, will not do. E.g. Most Serbian sources would claim that America waged war against their country back in 1999. Yet, in Wikipedia, we have [[NATO bombing of Yugoslavia]]. -[[User:The Gnome|The Gnome]] ([[User talk:The Gnome|talk]]) 11:44, 7 March 2026 (UTC)
:*This conflict has not been widely called a war, so I would not be in favour of it. [[User:Lova Falk|Lova Falk]] ([[User talk:Lova Falk|talk]]) 14:37, 7 March 2026 (UTC)
