:Well, a large part of the "Anti-American" section is taken up with a quote about reports on Australia, which is incongruous with the original title. The only mention of America is your own comment that AI "exposes an anti-American standpoint increasingly common in liberal groups" by "disproportionately criticiz[ing] free democratic nations over authoritarian nations", & the logic of that is a little flawed since the USA isn't the only free democratic nation. Also, I think when assessing criticisms of AI, it is best to present both viewpoints. Obviously you do not like this organisation much, but please don't assume that all conservatives agree with you on this. [[User:Sideways|Sideways]] 21:21, 28 October 2008 (EDT)

:I can agree with most you have said. I will put an Anti-American header, just with new content. Presenting both viewpoint's is not my intentions. I will have to limit inclusion or others will have to give the other view. Besides the criticism section, which will expand, is the only dirt. The rest of the page is authentic encyclopedic, no blemishes or ill will. Just so we understand, I am all for human rights. These people have deviated so far left, the organization no longer has the clout, nor the accuracy nor the proper intentions and need to be called out. Their cause is valiant, their mission is a disgrace.--'''<font color="#6698FF">J</font><font color="#E41B17">p</font><font color="#F88017">a</font><font color="#347C17">t</font><font color="#A74AC7">t</font>'''<sup>[[User:Jpatt| ]]</sup> 21:35, 28 October 2008 (EDT)
