Talk:US History/Truman and Cold War

Untitled
I never heard there was a vast Communist Conspiracy in the government - I was under the impression that McCarthy was off his rocker and never found a real communist.

By the way, "dastardly" mayy violate NPOV.

Hmph... It is evident that the article is based only on american and western sources.

Not a single word about the money reform, held in the American, French and British zones which de facto made it impossible for citizens from the Soivet zone of influence to buy/sell anything in that territory.

Concerning "in repsonse to that Soviet Union created Warsaw Pact".While NATO was created in 1949, it should not be forgotten that Warsaw Pact was created under Khruschev, more than 4 years later.

Etc, Etc. So many mistakes, blank spots, so much misleading information...

Copyright violation for image of Germany
This is something I think would be comparatively easy to recreate, and something that the people contributing to this project ought to consider. This image will be deleted in a week or so, unless some formal copyright attribution that is compatable with the GFDL can be granted. --Rob Horning 19:07, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

China and Communism
It would be interesting to link to international events, forces and movements that promoted changes (not only on China) and go beyond infantile propagandistic explanations. Explaining how and why some Western nations victimized China, its relations to neighboring nations would provide a better understanding about the reasons behind the path to Maoism. Making a distinction between Maoism and Marxism seems also relevant as to educate readers that there are many things behind the concept of Communism. --Panic (discuss • contribs) 02:11, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

You missed a lot of stuff about Truman
Nothing about his desegregation of the Civil Service and the military? Mercy me! Pittsburgh Poet (discuss • contribs) 23:57, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

The CIA and foreign affairs
Consider this a call for someone more informed than I am to add material about what the CIA did in the name of the United States in Central and South America and in Iran. Pittsburgh Poet (discuss • contribs) 22:53, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
