Polemical edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

"In the 1930s, Tansill was a staunch isolationist, arguing that the United States should not participate in World War II.[1] At the same time, he was an advisor to the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.[2] Meanwhile, six million Jews were murdered by the Nazi regime."

Observations like this make the article on Tansill sound like a polemical prosecutor's indictment, rather than an informative piece of biography. Six million Jews weren't murdered during the 1930s and it's dubious to blame America much less some obscure history professor for atrocities committed by the Nazis. No wonder Wikipedia can't be trusted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.3.44.12 (talk) 00:11, 24 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

I agree with the above objection and submit that it violates Wikipedia's neutrality objective.BelleCaart (talk) 19:35, 8 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
