treaty of Versaille and the Jewish world conspiracy, that the holocaust never happened and that the concentrations camps were set up by the US and the Soviets for their German prisoners. However, I would get sick if I read in a wikipedia article: Many historians like EX-WHY-Zet point to the facts that the World War was all the fault of the treaty of Versaille ... 

 I think in the present case it is sufficient to present both views and to name only prominent individuals like those who ordered the acts, those who worked on the scientific project, the official view of the cities... If there was a prominent historian like Goldhagen who started a famous debate ok, but we should not single out university professors arbitrarily.   

 :For the reasons I stated above, I agree with you that not every conceivable viewpoint deserves mention.  (As for your examples, though, certainly there are plenty of reputable historians who point to the Treaty of Versailles as being at least part of the cause of World War II.)  As for this article, I don't think that "having their own article" is the criterion. Gar Alperovitz is mentioned only in passing, but his book Atomic Diplomacy: Hiroshima and Potsdam was important in the debate, and he in fact deserves his own article, even though he doesn't have one yet.  Is there anything now included that you think should be deleted?   
 ::Yes, done.   

 :: Dare I even say it, but isn't this assertion of yours a shade eurocentric? Because you do not know of two relatively major Japanese historians, this means that they shold not be inlcuded in the article? What a load of horse shit.  

 :: Even though this is posted above, I will repost it for the visualy impared.  

 :: The Document in question about Tojo's order to execute all POW's is reprinted in its original Japanese in the following.  

 :: Japans Longest Day 
 :: Kazutoshi Hando 
 :: pg 183 

 :: If you do your fucking homework and read the source, assuming, that is, you can, you will se that it was written in Feb of 1944.  
 ::   

 :::I know it is useless, but I however tell you that your language is again inappropriate. 

 :::Rather than present us any argumentation why the historians you mentioned are particularly noteworthy you just start with polemics. That is not helpful. 
 :::Nor was it helpful to delete a source about the Hiroshima count of victims but replace the valid information with an unsourced claim I find difficult to trust.  
 :::Regarding your book, I am unwilling to try and find it. If there had been such an order and it had still been of importance there would for sure be material on it in the web. But what I find is information you are suppressing with your version, the fact that Tojo was not even in office any longer.  
 :::You have reverted three times, as you know you are not entitled to do it again, and it would lead to anoter protection.   

 :::: It is useless, so you can save your breath.   
 :::: They are noteworthy because their works are the most complete investigations into the Surrender of Japan. It took Hando and his colleagues 8 years of interview and sifting through documents and diaries to write their 1965 book.   

 That was an unintended side effect of my revert.  
 :::: Don’t they have libraries in Canada? Believe it or not, there is a great deal of information that is not on the web.  
 :::: Oh well, I couldn’t have that, now could I. Your threats are as weak as your arguments.   

 ::::: Libraries in Canada? There's half a library, same as in the US   

 Here, this one is in English, so even you could read it.
