Talk:World League for Freedom and Democracy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The WACL had close ties with the governments of Taiwan under Kuomintang rule, and (to a lesser extent), South Korea. Naturally, WACL had firm enemies on the International Left and major efforts were made to discredit it by saying that numerous groups, some of questionable repute, also participated in the WACL, i.e: the Unification Church, and, it was said various Latin American death squads, and some former World War II Axis government officials wanted for war crimes. Both the Soviet and Red Chinese government front organisations in the West funded disinformation about the WACL."

This isn't neutral - "natrually" had enemies on the left, assuming that the left identify with Communism, "major efforts were made to discredit it by saying.." , but surely if some these allegations are true then its not "discrediting" but exposing and not saying but "revealing". Doesn't address the facts, just dismisses them as left wing discrediting. Following that with the comment about soviet/PRC backed disinformation implies the criticisms were fake - at the very least an "additionally," should be stuck at the front of the last sentence. Really the whole paragraph could do with re-writing. I'd advise a close look at the rest of the article too.
