Talk:Irving Brown

Phrase Usage - "Charged of" vs. "Charged with"
This phrase is used in the article: "he was charged of this mission." Isn't the correct usage: "he was charged with this mission?" Or is this a 'potato/potahto' thing? Geoff (talk) 21:26, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Support or opposition of the National Liberation Front (FLN)
The article currently states without citation: "During the Algerian War, he subsidized the Algerian National Movement (MNA), founded by Messali Hadj to oppose the National Liberation Front (FLN)." This sentence is challenged in a passage of Dan Gallin's review of Anthony Carew's American Labor's Cold War Abroad: "One of its many strengths is that it corrects in passing some partisan lies that have been circulating on the internet. One example: The Wikipedia chapter on Irving Brown states that during the Algerian war of independence, in which he played a significant role, he 'subsidized the Algerian National Movement (MNA), founded by Messali Hadj to oppose the National Liberation Front (FLN).' In fact, the opposite was the case: Brown was backing the FLN union and never supported the MNA either politically or financially." I am not sure what the truth is here, but I think that is substantial enough to remove an uncited passage. - Location (talk) 21:58, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
