message: Monsueir Spade on Acorn is set in France. Clive Owens plays Sam Spade. The OAS is a prominent part of the plot.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:602:B01:A8E0:91A5:89F:C48:24AD (talk) 15:45, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

message: What evidence is there that the CIA backed the "The General's Putsch"? The link to another Wikipedia article does provide any backing for that claim. From what I understand CIA involvement was alleged but evidence was never produced.
If I don't get a reply in a week I'll edit the sentance.

thread_title: General's Putsch

message: It states clearly in the text of the article that "no definitive evidence" has been found of Gladio involvement.  If this is true why is the possible Gladio involvement mentioned?  I don't think this meets the standards for continued inclusion in the article.

replies: text: Well I think it can go too, because the Ganser source only says "In Algeria members of the French stay-behind and officers from the French War in Vietnam found the illegal Organisation Armee Secrete (OAS) and with CIA support stage a coup in Algiers against the French government of de Gaulle which fails," without giving any further factual information. Let's wait for User:Tazmaniacs before removing it though. Intangible 21:54, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Alleged Gladio connexion

message: I've made some edits just now, mostly either to improve the English or to provide small pieces of context that will be useful to people who are not so knowledgable on France.
This is still quite undercited, and could use a lot of work, but I think in general it is much improved from a month or two ago.
One passage was a mess; I tried to fix it, but I'm not sure that I succeeded because it outright contradicts itself, both before and after my edits. Before:
Despite the OAS bombing campaign, the FLN remained resolute in its agreement to the ceasefire and on June 17, 1962 the OAS also began a ceasefire. However machine-gunning of public places by ALN in all areas of Oran and missings were reported in early July 1962 by remaining Pieds-Noirs witnesses, the Algerian authority granted the security of the remaining Europeans though.
After:
Despite the OAS bombing campaign, the FLN remained resolute in its agreement to the ceasefire and on June 17, 1962 the OAS also began a ceasefire. The Algerian authority guaranteed the security of the remaining Europeans, but in early July 1962, remaining Pieds-Noirs witnesses reported machine-gunning of public places in all areas of Oran by the ALN—the armed wing of the FLN, at the time evolving into the Algerian Army—and that people had gone missing.
I believe that this is equivalent and better put, but the two sentences still contradict one another. - Jmabel | Talk 05:18, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  State of article 

message: President DeGaulle elicited the OAS's help during the May 1968 uprising, as a last resort if the students and workers were to take control of Paris. Can anyone find the proper citation for this and include it in the article, as I am too busy right now? If not, I'll get around to it soon. --Dialecticas (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 18:50, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Popular Culture 

message: Were the ranks of the organisation just ethnic French people or were there any Arab/Berber Algerians? I was thinking about how many Morrocans fought against communism/anarchism in the Spanish Civil War, and when considering the Marxist nature of the conspiracies against the colonies in Africa of recent centuries, perhaps some fought for this too? - Yorkshirian (talk) 16:49, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Ethnicity?

message: The entry "...resulting in 3,000 missing people." under The March 1962 Evian agreements and the struggle of the OAS does not seem consistent with "Estimates of the death toll are 95 killed (a minority — 20 — of whom were European) and 453 disappeared." on the Wikipedia page Oran massacre of 1962.
