Talk:Grand strategy

message: Is this really a neologism?  I think I've read it in sources over 60 years old.--Pharos 07:56, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Depends on how new "neo" is. But you're right; part of the UK's official WWII history is entitled "Grand Strategy", so not that new. Stan 12:33, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

text: I tried my hand at a rewrite. Another half-dozen examples, from different eras, would be a good way to show the unity of concept. Stan 13:30, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: Does china really need to be on here?  The point of any "strategy" is if you are at war - or will be at war; which country is china at war with?  I can understand the cold war, which is still a war - albeit cold.  China however is not in this type of situation.  USA changes the size of it's army all the time, and so does any other country, so what dif with china?  I think the reason why this might be on here is because of the mentality people have of seeing china as an evil country (like russia back in the cold war), anything china do is seen as hostile - even internal self governing functions (I bet if US increase the size of it's military, no one will rise an eyebrow, but the world will go to hell if china did).  I would like to delete this, if there's no objections.  Please provide counter-arguments if you do. 21:09, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  China as a grand strategy? 

message: I believe the section about the Athenian use of a drawn out, naval blockade of the Spartan and allied Peloponnesian forces should be removed. This section is historically false, and a simple click to follow the link provided to the wiki page about the Peloponnesian War shows that.
Therefore, I have removed it. If anyone feels otherwise, please discuss. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wrc wolfbrother (talk • contribs) 05:22, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Classified start.  Article has good potential for a higher class but really needs work on coverage.  There is too great an emphasis on modern US practice, insufficient discussion of historical or non-US examples.  Mostly well referenced but some areas still need in line cites.

message: Regarding Schellenberg and Ireland- he probably did have a hand in a lot of Ireland operations, although my reading on the subject only ever touches on his involvement.  I'm not going to put the article out of whack by referring to Ireland a lot as it was entirely on the fringes of operations- the link to Operation Osprey contains a "see also" section with the links to other ops if readers are interested.

Talk:Ursulines

message: Please update the history of the Uraline nuns and their so-call pursuit of diversity.  According to a new book by Shannen Dee Williams, a history professor at the University of Dayton -- arguably now knows more about America’s Black nuns than anyone in the world. Her comprehensive and compelling history of them, “Subversive Habits,” will be published May 17.  Please refer to the recent article in the AP news at this link: https://apnews.com/article/black-catholic-nuns-history-50a3322de1a7164ece5f47acb267e159
According to her research, One of the oldest Black sisterhoods, the Sisters of the Holy Family, formed in New Orleans in 1842 because white sisterhoods in Louisiana, including the slave-holding Ursuline order, refused to accept African Americans. The principal founder of that New Orleans order — Henriette Delille — and Oblate Sisters of Providence founder Mary Lange are among three Black nuns from the U.S. designated by Catholic officials as worthy of consideration for sainthood. 
In closing, as a native Louisiana, Catholic and have members of my family in the religious order of Catholicism.  The Catholic Church in Louisiana was historically racist and in many ways remain so today. Despite this a huge number of African Americans in Louisiana are Catholic. This is also a direct result of many slaves forced into Catholicism during slavery. The convents and priesthoods excluded African Americans so please don't exclude the Ursuline nuns from their true slave-owning and exclusionary history. 2601:40F:4000:CEC0:3C12:F1A2:86A:5C66 (talk) 02:52, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:William O. Wooldridge

message: I found a reference in "Thunderbolt", a biography of Creighton Abrams, to Abrams disenchantment with Wooldridge because he had been implicated in a scandal.  I recall the scandal, which involved senior NCO's skimming profits from NCO clubs, but have not found a source verifying or discrediting his involvement.  I believe it to be true because the author, Lewis Sorley, is a careful and thorough writer with extensive knowledge of the military at that time.

Talk:Politics of the Soviet Union

message: An article about the Soviet Union that doesn't contain substantial reference to Stalinism is re-writing an ugly chapter in history to place a pretty facade over totalitarinism and the ignorance that provided popular support to the elimination of human rights and dignity. The Marxist mob got the government that it deserved. The tone of this article gives the reader the false impression that the rise of the Soviet Union occurred through civil discourse, a representative body and parlimentary approval.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.18.153.39 (talk) 01:31, 29 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revisionism 

message: Can it be made more clear either on this article or the various other articles dealing with the organs of state of the former Soviet Union how each related to one another?  For instance, in the executive branch section of this article, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet is mentioned in passing only three times, despite it's chairman being seen as the nominal head of state of the Soviet Union.  The Presidium also appears to have had quite a bit of formal power including the power to dissolve the Supreme Soviet, removing the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union, repealing decrees by the chairman of the Council of Ministers, etc.  
While both the Chairmen of the Council of Ministers and Chairman of the Presidium in practice had less practical power than the First or General Secretary of the party, it seems a bit of an omission in the "Executive branch" section of this article to mention the Premier (head of government) and not mention that the Chairman of the Presidium (head of state) was also part of the executive organ of state of the Soviet Union. In the modern context of the Russian Federation, it'd be like mentioning the Prime Minister but not mentioning the President. --Criticalthinker (talk) 02:16, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Rolf Witting

message: It seems as if the article on this point, where Tuomas and Whiskey seem to have rather different understandings, could be well served by precise attributions to written sources. I've removed the following sentence from the text. "All agree" seems not quite correct:
:All agree that the decision was premier Ryti's, and that others among the top tiers were, or must have been, less than enthusiastic but without much of a say on the actual choice. Mannerheim was negative, the Agrarian President Kallio didn't consider himself competent in matters of foreign affairs, although formally it was the president's prime responsibility, the other large party, the Social Democrats, had every reason to be highly suspicious against Witting's fringe right-wing ideology, which also is clearly reflected in memoirs by leading Social Democrats, and the Conservative party's heaviest names Paasikivi and Linkomies were outright negative. 
There is maybe a difference between what people said and/or wrote in their diaries when he was appointed compared to what they wrote after the Paris Peace Treaty?--Ruhrjung 14:57, Jan 14, 2005 (UTC)
Linkomies wrote in his memoirs (he wrote those in prison when serving his sentence as "Guilty for War" 1947-8)(translation mine): "At early times, when we had to resist Soviet pressure after the Moscow Peace, he as a hard-skinned man was in a correct place, but later when things has changed, he couldn't anymore fill his place to the benefit of the country. Then it would have been needed resilience and flexibility which he lacked. He tied our country too closely to Germany, to which direction our policy at those conditions naturally had to be steered, but although so, that our freedom of action had been maintained." Linkomies also blames his increasing use of alcohol (which was the downfall of also another prominent Finnish minister, Ahti Karjalainen) and writes also: "Negative side of him was, that he walked his own roads and couldn't negotiate calmly and impassionate way with others." and writes few sentences about Witting's antipathy toward Swedes and how it affected his judgement: "Witting was unwilling to consider Swedish opinion when there was a reason to consider it. It wasn't clear to Witting, that Finland shall never arrange her foreign policy to opposite direction of Sweden." -Whiskey 23:35, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
