Talk:Michael McKevitt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It's great that there is a source of the printed word such as an encyclopedia on the Web, that is free.However,it is not free if the information it imparts is one sided and presents only the view of special interest groups such as the American FBI,CIA, MI5,and so on. It has not been proven that Michael McKevitt did anything.His trial has been influenced by the sources I mentioned, and the news media in this country, occupied Ireland, and Britain.As to the irish Republican Army,they killed only 70 people(proven) whereas the amount of people killed by loyalist terror groups at the behest of the British government has been staggering.
Why now have your pages been protected, when not long
ago anyone could edit or insert material;do you really not want to hear other,and perhaps more realistic discussions of the same material? It is interesting,considering all the current frenzy about "terrorists" in the world today, that anyone acting for a military organ- ization not in uniform and unrecognized is a terrorist;that also includes the Palestinians,who have been forced into a corner and threatened with extermination merely because the Zionists in Israel(notice that I did not say all Israelis,or all Jews) want them out of the picture. The loyalists in occupied Ireland have been allowed to do as they please by the British government,so that ireland will remain unfree. You may remember,the Irish Republican Army has been working for peace for some time.One hopes the rest of the world does not expect them to submit themselves to extermination merely because others want them dead or in prison.
The attempts, reflected by the rather ludicrously simplistic analysis of Irish history above (which is to history what Mickey Mouse is to the study of mice), to turn this article into poorly written, factually inaccurate propaganda, was the reason for the edit war which led to the page being protected. Various users were involved in reverting the rubbish, which seemed intent on turning an encyclopædic article into a Real IRA polemical press release. Among the anonymous user's attempts at the propagandisation of the article are
- using such encyclopædic language as FBI stooge in place of the NPOV reference "FBI agent",
- adding in this means very little,considering that Gerry Adams is known to have been paid off by special interest groups,including the American CIA and British MI5.. about Gerry Adams,
- to the sentence "which has been regarded as responsible for the Omagh bombing in the late 1990s, which killed 29 people;" the anonymous user inserted however,it should be noted that this is the view of the British media and MI5,not reality.
- the insertion of a pro-Real IRA poem that not merely breaches NPOV but also breaches copyright.
The user has repeatedly returned to this page (and others) to propagandise them, using various IPs. As there was no one IP that could be blocked, and blocking the range would have been unfair to others using them, it was decided to protect the page until there was some evidence that the anonymous user stopped POVing it and breaching copyright. As the comments he wrote earlier show, he still wants to agendaise the page, add in slanderous comment and introduce gross factual inaccuracies that even members of the Real IRA privately would roll their eyes over.
