User:Davshul/Draft of article on List of Massacres, Pogroms and Murderous Attacks on Jews

This container category may also contain a number of pages where it is currently not possible to accurately categorize them among the subcategories.

This is a list of massacres (or atrocities resulting in fatalities) committed against Jews or the Jewish state since antiquity until the present time.

Introduction

In a number of instances (most notably the Crusader period, the Russian pogroms, the Palestine Mandate period, the Israel-Arab conflict and, above all, the Holocaust), it would be impossible to list here, or even attempt to list here, each individual atrocity. Accordingly, in such instances, this list includes (or is intended to include) a summary or overview of such events and a sample of the most significant incidents, and dedicated articles on the subject include (or are intended to include) an expanded list of the relevant incidents.

This is a list specifically where the victims of the attacks are Jews or the Jewish state. Whilst in certain instances (primarily, the Roman Wars and the Arab-Israel conflict), a number of the listed incidences took place within the context of conflict situation in which there were instances of fatalities inflicted on the other party to the conflict, such fatalities are outside the ambit of this article.

This article is a list and accordingly the description of each incident should not be a detailed discussion on the subject, but merely a brief account of what transpired, with expanded details and discussion, with further references, appearing in articles dedicate to the subject.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
