At the time of writing the article reads to me like a US government press release and I agree this needs correction. Unfortunately attempts to address this by anon IPs seem to have got locked into a long term edit war. I have semi-protected the article for a week to encourage discussion. I suggest those using anonymous IP accounts to contribute consider [[WP:Why create an account?#Summary of benefits|Summary of benefits]] and in the meantime propose the changes they would like to see here, so that a discussion about how to create an article that fairly represents all points of view can be created.

The talk here agrees this article simply quotes the US official line. Even on a cursory reading the article is not neutral. Can anyone make a case for keeping it? If not it should be deleted. |

POV
I placed the POV tag when creating the article because it is pasted from a US government website. Because this comes from a US govt source it may not be neutral, but I don't have the expertise to judge. (Hopefully others that know more will simply remove the tag if they think the article looks okay.) Mangostar (talk) 00:13, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
Help Destroy?
Hi, I've noticed that the first sentence under history mentions, "and to help destroy its independence, sovereignty, national unity, and territorial integrity" which I do not exactly understand. Could it possibly made more clear, using context did not help me.
POV warring
At the time of writing the article reads to me like a US government press release and I agree this needs correction. Unfortunately attempts to address this by anon IPs seem to have got locked into a long term edit war. I have semi-protected the article for a week to encourage discussion. I suggest those using anonymous IP accounts to contribute consider Summary of benefits and in the meantime propose the changes they would like to see here, so that a discussion about how to create an article that fairly represents all points of view can be created.
