Probably have ties to Islamic extremists in the Middle East - how NPOV is this? -- Zoe

I think this was due to its being copied verbatim from some source. --snoyes 03:09 Feb 28, 2003 (UTC)

Estimated at several hundred members, PAGAD's G-Force probably contains fewer than 50 members. This is an illogical sentence. Who is doing the "estimating" in the first clause? Who is making the "probability" claim in the second? As it stands, the article is making both claims (since neither is cited), and that makes no sense. --FOo

Again, this is due to its being copied verbatim from the source (US Navy) which is not unbiased and doesn't attempt to be. --snoyes 05:05 Feb 28, 2003 (UTC)

Then, just for argument's sake, what is it doing in a supposedly NPOV project? Hephaestos

Hehe, you'll have a hard time finding someone to argue with. I didn't insert it, but I'll make it neutral (I lived in Cape Town most of my life). - But not tonight. --snoyes 05:20 Feb 28, 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Past tense?

Most of this article should be written in the past tense. The bombing campaign has apparently been over for several years. Ebrahim was convicted of public violence in 2002 and has been in prison since then. The article is largely lifted from [1]. Zaian 21:46, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
