[edit] HOMICIDAL FORCE
Now I don't like walt rostow any more than the next guy, but saying he endorsed "homicidal force to slaughter vietnamese children, women and men with bombs, chemicals and guns" while to some degree accurate, is not a neutral phrasing, and ought to be changed.
[edit] Vietnam Comment
I agree. The comment is clearly partisan and unprofessional. It doesn't belong here.
[edit] This is supposed to be an encyclopedia...
... and I agree that the line about slaughtering children should be relegated to the discussion section.
[edit] todo for this article
No time nor energy for this now, but WWR's acadamic career should be more clearly distinguished from his role as a political advisor and public servant. The article currently appears to present a chronological overview that does not seem appropriate, as it mixes the two separate dimensions of his legacy, both of which merit independent treatment. dr.ef.tymac 16:23, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
