More information about this article... The following comments have been left for this page: The statement that General Singlaub "was involved in the Iran-Contra Affair," at the very least, is incomplete if not misleading, nor does the bio entry describe his "involvement." It should be noted that the General was asked to testify during the Senate's Iran-Contra Congressional hearing, but his appearance was that of a witness.Ronit52 (talk) 03:54, 23 December 2007 (UTC) (edit)

Singlaub is a very controversial person but nothing of his controversial or questionable activities appear in the article. Formeruser-82 02:21, 19 December 2005 (UTC).

Thought I'd look at some of these links. No suprise to see HOTR here, complaining that there is not sufficent in the article to demonise this fellow. But two books are quoted. Why don't you read them? 213.122.67.71 07:57, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

It should most definitely be noted that General Singlaub started a new WACL affiliate in the US for the express purpose of excluding the despicable characters listed by Geoffrey Stewart-Smith, these types having polluted the former affiliate. This was done in cooperation with the umbrella WACL organization and continued with a campaign to exclude such types abroad. Having taken Nazi shrapnel with the OSS in occupied France (and China), Singlaub was not about to begin tolerating Neo-Nazis or totalitarians & bigots of any sort. Having always admired smarts and courage and then having read the "Hazardous Duty" autobiograpy, I am most definitely an admirer.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.109.152.240 (talk • contribs) 19:47, 2 Jan 2006
