Israel

This article needs a big cleanup.

Yeah, we really cannot have all three of these country names pointing to the same page. Information needs to be split into separate pages on Judea, Palestine and Israel — sticking very very very very close to only what the source material says. We cannot tolerate any real world creep here because of the real world sensitivity of the subject.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.
