If Megiddo is in "the occupied Palestinian territories", then it should be listed as Megiddo, Palestine instead of Megiddo, Israel, right? -- Zoe

I found 2 references in other on-line encyclopedae. One lists as "Israel", other as "Northern Israel". So I changed the occupied... part back to Israel. I left the "military prison" part because it seems more NPOV than the "convicted of terrorism" line. If anyone knows more and can maintain NPOV, go to it. -- Marknau

Megiddo is well inside the Green Line, although many Palestinians think it should be theirs together with the rest of Israel (an early version of the Acre article classified the city "occupied Palestinian land"). --Uri

What does Megiddo have to do with Eshqelon, which is "Majid" in Arabic? How are we sure that this is the "Plane of Meggido" that the Bible talks about?

Um, I think someone blew this one. The description matches my former residence, Kibbutz Ramot Menashe, near the historic/archaelogical site/battle site Megiddo. I'm pretty sure there is no kibbutz by the name "Megiddo". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:3024:182F:D100:CDD5:7742:E768:92E (talk) 00:15, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You can click on the "coordinates" and see Kibbutz Megiddo on a map. It is right beside Tel Megiddo, whereas Ramot Menashe is about 11km away. Zero^talk 03:26, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
