When I saw the edits and MPLX s addition yesterday I found it rather anti GWB which I happen to share but POV and unfounded The connection seems absurdly weak and tenuous for decades if not centuries politicians all the world over have been speaking of peace while waging or preparing war and assuring the populace that it is a just war to bring a better tomorrow for everybody in my country we have rich experience with fighting for peace So first of all I don t think the speech was particularly paradoxical let alone Orwellian although I don t follow the US media if MLPX can provide links of other commentators noting this he has a case in point Secondly even if the speech was meant to explicitly refer to FDR s Four Freedoms I think that the mediated connection to 1984 is too loose and willed for an encyclopedia Thirdly and most importantly even if the section had a place in the article it s certainly not squat in the middle of the section The World of 1984 Move it down among late references if it must be kept and I agree with Alavery7 that it concerns more the speech than the novel so it should be better moved there 12 17 25 Jan 2005 UTC
