Talk:Fallujah during the Iraq War

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is a daughter article of Fallujah which was spun off on November 14th 2005. The archived talk pages from Fallujah might be of interest; Talk:Fallujah/archive01 - to Nov 2004, #Talk:Fallujah/archive02 - to Nov 2005

Nicknames[edit]

I don't know how many nicknames different units had for Fallujah, but when I was there we use to call it "The Fluje". I don't really see where that would figure into the entry, so I thought I would just post it on the discussion page incase it ever finds a place in future revisions of the article. Most commonly we would call out to each other "F*ck the Fluje!" This is back in the summer of 2003.

"Unreliable Source"[edit]

There was an "unreliable source" tag on a reference to a comment made by US State Department spokesman.

WTF does that mean—"unreliable source"?

The State Dept spokesman? You might not like what he has to say, you may even think he is a low-down dirty liar, but it is quoting him verbatim. Likewise, you may think the State Dept is only giving its obligatory denial, but the article is being quite objective in its reporting of the official US position.

The Stanhope Centre? Might not like their perspective (and why not?), but they are merely quoting the briefing verbatimm. For the record, the Stanhope Centre is as reliable a source as they come. It specializes in reporting on the Middle East and is used as a research source for numerous news and research organizations. It has a long list of serious academics on staff, and has affiliations with the Annenberg School of Communications at the University of Pennsylvania, with Central European University, and with various universities in London.

Somebody's use of the "unreliable source" tag reflects distinct editorial bias on their own part, not on the author's use of the source in this article.

Therefore I have removed the tag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bilhartz (talk • contribs) 14:53, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
