Talk:Voltaire Network

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"laicity" is not a word.

Réseau Voltaire is the french name. Please change as Voltaire Network.

No reason to translate the name. It is the name of an organisation. Rama 20:53, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] npov tag

i added an npov tag because this article seems to greatly distort the reality of this organization. i don't really know what the truth behind this org is, but it seems pretty clear to me that it's quite fringy. this isn't reflected much at all in the text, except for the reference to their conspiracy-theory claims regarding 9/11. if you look at something like [[1]] you can obviously see their fringy nature, e.g. the very first sentence "Freedom House, a propaganda machine created by Roosevelt to prepare the US public opinion for war ..." and bizarre footnotes like "[9] Paul Wolfowitz himself is a Trotskyite". (i would guess from this footnote that voltaire network is communist since no one else goes around accusing people of being "trotskyites", but i really have no idea.)

No, in fact they are somehow loosely related to Larouche.

You win the Understatement of the Day Award for "quite fringy". :) Rama 14:29, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
