Very weird editing pattern[edit]

Checkuser needed Look at the history of this article, all the accounts with similar edit summaries and exclusive focus on CIA articles. v/r - Seawolf35 ^T--C 23:04, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just so we don't cause anyone to duplicate each other's work, I'm going to go ahead and deactivate this CU needed template since you have filed Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Renny1105, which appears to cover the same activity. Mz7 (talk) 08:18, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bias and ahistoric claims[edit]

Under the heading "Hukbalahap (Huk) Rebellion" it states "After the Philippines were liberated by the Americans and Filipino Troops, the United States of America began to influence and control the Philippine government once again." First, it is unnecessary to say "the United States of America". The article is explicitly about the CIA, a US agency, so no one would be confused if it simply said "United States" or just "US". Second, the amount of "influence and control" that the US exerted upon the Philippines considerably declined starting in July of 1946, with the Treaty of Manila, and the independence of the Philippines. No source is cited for this claim. The article then goes on to state "The Americans presumed the Huks advocated a communist ideology which would make them a threat in post-World War II." "...Presumed..." is nonsensical. The Huks were unambiguously communist. I mean, they formed an alliance with the communist PKP, and in 1950 they began using a flag with a gold hammer and sickle on a red field -- literally the communist flag. This part of the article seems to be prevaricating in favor of the Huks and what they believed, and attempting to sanitize them.Bricology (talk) 08:38, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
