[edit] Formed by the KGB
According to this article, the US has always alleged the World Peace Council to have been formed by the KGB as a front group. Also according to this article, the World Peace Council was formed in 1949. According to the KGB article, the KGB was formed in 1953.
Do those who allege that the World Peace Council was formed by the KGB have an explanation for this discrepancy? -- Antaeus Feldspar 19:20, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
- KGB was not "formed" in 1953, if you read the article carefully. It was just a new name. Mikkalai 19:46, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
Then KGB really needs to be revised to make it clear, because carefully reading the article told me something different: it told me that the MVD and MGB were merged to form a new MVD, and then the merged MVD was split again to form the new MVD and the KGB. While this certainly indicates a certain continuity of action, it doesn't say "Oh, that was just the KGB before it was called the KGB." I think it would be more appropriate to be precise and say that the allegation is that the World Peace Council was formed as a front organization by one of the two Soviet security agencies that would go into the formation of the KGB later. -- Antaeus Feldspar 01:00, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
