This may be true, however, this is an encyclopedia and all statements need a reliable source (WP:RS). Please feel free to edit the article again, providing references that support this assertion. Thank you! Jacona (talk) 22:46, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

There was no fucking Intellectual Property violations 'Copyright', which I stated in edit.Djphrost (talk) 23:13, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Doesn't even matter at this point, since you're also blocked for edit warring and personal attacks. There's a limit to the number of times our volunteers need to tolerate being called "nazis"; that limit is zero. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 23:21, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Regarding the copyright: you specifically cited New Statesman as your source for that section, which just as specifically claims copyright to it. Naming the source doesn't allow verbatim use of the content. To your point, yes Center for Research & Globalization grants permission to use "Original Global Research articles". The thing is, this one is not an original article from them. Look at the page on their own site where they reprint the article. It specifically states there "It was first published on April 17, 2000 in the New Statesman." So again, it is sourced to New Statesman, which asserts copyright, and all sources you provide lead back there. If you really want that material in the article, then take that material and put it in your own words. You can use the article as a source for the ideas expressed, just put it in your own words.
