Talk:United Nations Emergency Force

Incorrect information?
The section on UNEF I states that "On May 16, 1967, the Egyptian government ordered all United Nations forces out of Sinai effective immediately." This is not true. President Nasser initially only demanded that some of the troops left, it was U Thant who said that they couldn't remove some without all troops leaving. It wasn't until 18 May that Nasser demanded that all the troops leave the Sinai. This seems like a pretty major mistake Alcatraz ii (talk) 12:37, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Western response?
I was wondering what how the West responded to the "controversial" withdrawal of the UNEF? Michael Oren's Six Days of War mentions two "Western" critics - Joseph Alsop of Newsweek and New York Times editor C.L. Sulzberger - but seems to leave out all other Western countries besides the U.S...

Claim of Israeli rejection of UNEF on their side of the armistice line
Michael Oren doesn't mention this at all in his comprehensive history of the period, Six Days of War. If nobody can back this up within one week, I will deleting it from the article. --GHcool 01:34, 25 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Michael Oren's Six Days of War has its critics, and there are valid primary sources beyond his book which mention Israel's rejection of the UNEF on its side of the armistice line...see Abba Eban with Footnotes by Norman G. Finkelstein (Journal of Palestine Studies, Spring 2003, Vol. 32, No. 3, Pages 74-89) for a comprehensive review of Michael Oren's book. Zadooplum 23:09, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

removed reference tag
I removed the reference/citing sources tag, as it seems all "dubious" claims have been cited...Zadooplum 04:37, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Expansion
This article should be about UNEFs in general, not just UNEF I as it currently is. Cromdog (talk) 19:41, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

"Casualties" section
The section "Casualties" removal seems somewhat the appropriate action though not the desired. Blogs are not an acceptable source per WP:BLOGS. Is there a replacement for the source (blogs.oglobo.globo.com) ? I prefer that content not be removed. Jerium (talk) 13:13, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
