Talk:Steven Stalinsky

Rewrite or delete

This article needs to either be deleted or completely rewritten, as per the reasons elaborated in the message box: WP:NPOV, WP:NOTCV, WP:CITEKILL, WP:NOTADVERT, and, of course, egregious and consistent violations of the Manual of Style—MOS:PUFFERY; MOS:TERRORIST, etc. The article was written by Justinimg, whose only contributions on Wikipedia have been to this article, and to the article for Interface Media Group , with whom Stalinsky is affiliated. The account in question clearly either belongs to an individual paid by Stalinsky to write the two articles, or quite likely Stalinsky himself (WP:COI). Despite efforts by such users as Horse Eye Jack to remove the most egregious puffery, what is left still consists entirely of unreliable, one-sided, weasel-worded, unreliably-cited, puffed up advertisement for a man so clearly insecure in his image as to pay someone forge a Wikipedia article on him. yaguzi (talk) 00:27, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

I don’t think the article should be deleted. It should be rewritten to accurately educate the public on exactly who Steven Stalinsky is. Stalinsky is another Stuart Seldowitz, a Zionist terrorist using his position to spread Zionist terrorist propaganda. Funny how both have the initials SS. They are Zionist terrorist Nazi’s. The U.S. government is full of Zionist terrorists beholden to the Zionist terrorist regime of Israel. Zionist terrorist Israel is using the U.S. as its personal military and personal coffers to fund war crimes & genocide. Zionist terrorist Israel is spreading fake news and propaganda to fool the American people to believe they are the forces of good and surrounded by people that want to harm them and the American people. All lies. Zionist terrorist Israel and Zionist terrorists and Zionist terrorist sympathizers are the biggest threat to any country and world peace. Zionist terrorist organizations like AIPAC and other pro-Zionist terrorist lobbyists have one job, to influence American politics and policy to support Zionist terrorist Israel. 24.191.35.22 (talk) 09:55, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

I don't know if it would be more productive and in-line with wikipedia policies to delete or keep this article. Partisan propaganda often seeks to silence opposition while preserving their own opinion as sacred and free speech. There should be no policy difference between pro-Israel or anti-Israel positions. If one partisan position is deleted, the opposition should be as well.(eg. If Hamas articles are routinely deleted or slandered here, then MEMRI & Stalinsky should be deleted as well) All that said, what I object to is the fundamental deception that Stalinsky and MEMRI are neutral or academic. If the article is kept, Stalinsky should be highlighted as a highly partisan anti-muslim propagandist and certainly no scholar. DBlakeRoss (talk) 21:33, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Patched up this bizarre article.

I have removed the resume/advertisement aspects of the padded-out article to clean it up. I believe it is much more succinct now, though perhaps it may need a brief section on MEMRI's conduct, work and reputation under the subject's 25 years of leadership. 212.70.117.252 (talk) 16:50, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Steven Stalinsky and MEMRI are Islamophobic propagandists posing as a think tank. See WSJ opinion article, Welcome to Dearborn, America’s Jihad Capital I don't think wikipedia should legitimize or normalize hate speech whether it is antisemitism, Islamophobia or any other form of bigotry. 2601:645:D80:3F20:1A4D:ACDC:45D0:D725 (talk) 20:55, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Was anything he said untrue? 184.97.66.227 (talk) 00:23, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Being critical of Israel is not terrorism or antisemitism. Suggesting that anyone who criticizes Israel is an antisemite is actually an antisemitic trope of dual loyalty, or conjoining being Jewish with unconditional support for Israel. Finally, calling an entire city of people a "Jihad" because they don't share your zionist politics is the height of hypocrisy and bigotry. So the answer to your question is "yes." There are a dozen articles in the news today about the WSJ's prejudiced opinion piece. Wikipedia is no place for zionist double standards.

YES, a BUNCH of stuff he said was untrue, bigoted, and generalized to smear the community there. It is hate speech period, he is a Islamophobic bigot period. 96.31.186.247 (talk) 05:38, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

I think the article might be salvaged if rewritten to focus on the impact of the WSJ article. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%E2%80%9CThis+is+a+moment+for+counterterrorism+officials+to+be+concerned.%E2%80%9D&t=vivaldi&atb=v411-1&ia=web
