Operation Quartz
[edit]- ... that Operation Quartz was a plan by the Rhodesian military to kill Robert Mugabe, should he lose the 1980 Southern Rhodesian general election?

Long enough, new enough, literary ref content not available online but taken IGF, hook OK and mentioned in article and cited, neutrality OK, QPQ done. "Factually dubious information" should be replaced by "dubious information" because "dubious" already implies "factually". This is an effective hook because you have to read the article to find out that the plan was never executed due to subsequent events - although the very thought of an assassination plan remains shocking, so the effect of the hook is not lessened.
