[edit]Saying "Restored factual and sourced information" when you restore "He was a fascist sympathizer and an acknowledged anti-Semite." is at least too pretentious and at most a blatant lie. Besides when you have a full article with lots of data, sources, facts, and even opinions everything can count as a contribution to the truth. When you have an stub with almost no data, and with data selectively left behind (as we can all prove just by searching for JMR on google and seeing the bios there, *part* of which are copied here) a comment like that is just defamation. It is like "ok I don't have a clue about you but you are fascist and anti-semite, oh and I found a book somewhere that says it too so is factual and sourced information" Jose Maria Rosa was an historian and the article should be about that, after the article have enough information of JMR as historian then you can write OPINIONS about him as a person, beliefs and so on but that kind of information should not be the main focus of the article. Also I would really like to know what is a fascist sympathizer, how do someone qualifies as one, and what is the required information needed to say that any given person is a fascist sympathizer?
Also, every editor should try to remain objective and NOT using CHEAP tricks to mislead the reader. Examples of cheap tricks is to say "He lived in Uruguay and Franco's Spain" so we first call him a fascist and then we say that he lived in Franco's Spain to reinforce (?) the idea. Why is it just Uruguay and not WhateverTheRuler's Uruguay? Why not just Spain? After all he went to spain not because of the ruler, what is the relevance of the ruler? Is the editor implying that he went to Spain cause of Franco? if so, can he prove it? The objective factual not misleading information is that he lived in Spain, period.
Unless you want to edit every bio on wikipedia adding "Ruler's Country" to each and every person I just don't understand why some people lived on Ruler's Country and other people lived in just... Country.
- I don't know if you had the chance to ever read or hear JMR in public. Any unbiased observer would have characterized his tirades as antisemitic and fascist, like his constant references to Jewish slave traders. The article also brings the Muchnik's book as a source. And with respect of the information that he moved to Franco's Spain. I don't think it is a cheap trick. He moved to a country were he felt comfortable living, that happen to be under the rule of a fascist dictator. Bakersville
- Haven't read JMR myself, but if you're a an outspoken intellectual with radical opinions, it's extremely significant if you choose to live in (or exile from) a country subject to a dictatorship with a certain ideological bent. If you don't know what was happening in Spain back then, saying just "Spain" leaves you with a very different impression than specifying it was "Franco's Spain", just as saying "Russia" is not the same as saying "Stalin's Russia". —Pablo D.

That seems to forget the fact that he didn't choose to live there he was forced to exile from Argentina, and, being argentine, spain is a pretty common destination when someone can't live on their own country, the contrary would mean stating that every Argentine (or every person) who happened to live in Spain at that time was a fascist lover or something like that. Or are you implying that when the argentine military dictatorship were in power every person living in Argentina were fascists or murderers or murderers supporters and felt comfortable living there? What a perfect example of biased reasoning and lack of intellectual honesty. "If JMR went to spain is cause he was a fascist if I lived in Argentina while the de facto goverment where killing thousands of people I was just a regular guy" Regarding "I don't know if you had the chance to ever read or hear JMR in public. Any unbiased observer would have characterized his tirades as antisemitic and fascist, like his constant references to Jewish slave traders" is sheer speculation. I don't know what would any unbiased observer have thought. Neither do you. And is not your job to judge that, if you write an article your responsibility is to state facts or at least to show the "two bells", not judging what would "any unbiased observer have thought". "The article also brings the Muchnik's book as a source" another irrelevant and cheap trick. I can state *whatever* I want regarding any person I want and find a source to "confirm" it. And the argentine history is, sadly, a perfect example of this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.114.230.2 (talk • contribs) 17:52, 5 December 2006.
- Franco ruled Spain until 1973 and died in 1975, so Argentinians fleeing the National Reorganization Process (1976-1983) could hardly have fled to Franco's Spain.
- Not all sources are the same. Not even all historians are the same as sources (I wouldn't quote Felipe Pigna on any serious matter). However, it's true that we can't guess what an unbiased observer would have thought, mainly because there are no truly unbiased observers.
- Muchnik seems to be a respected writer and calls JMR an antisemite, so we must cite his book. If there's an equally reputable source that contradicts that, then we must cite it too. I'd like to see what Muchnik says about JMR, and read JMR's own words if possible. The review of Muchnik's book in Clarín says: "... The book also analyzes Argentine examples of antisemite nationalism, from Leopoldo Lugones and Hugo Wast ... to Enrique Larreta, José María Rosa, Carlos Ibarguren, Jordán Bruno Genta, Julio Meinville...". So an independent reviewer agrees with Muchnik (indeed, it treats JMR's antisemitism as a given, not as a controversial statement). —Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 23:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
And what does the National Reorganization Process have to do with anything here? Did I mention it regarding living in spain? No, I didn't. Another cheap trick to avoid replying to the REAL point. (And btw the national reorganization process were not the only military dictatorship in Argentina nor was the only to kill people)
Regarding "Muchnik seems to be a respected" respected by who? This is just another biased comment. "JMR seems to be a respected historian". My dog seems to be a respected dog. "So an independent reviewer agrees with Muchnik " Come on, you can't really be THAT naive. There is no such thing as an "independent reviewer" and is just silly to say that when you are talking about corporate journalism. "it treats JMR's antisemitism as a given, not as a controversial statement" which, of course, is just plain wrong. The whole point is to treat it as controversial and prove it.
- Please sign your statements using four tildes (~~~~), assume good faith, and be civil. Nobody likes being called stupid (or words to that effect). So far it seems to be only you who disagrees with the claim that JMR was an antisemite. We're not here to meta-discuss the integrity of corporate journalism; we work on sources, not on our opinions of those sources. If you don't understand that, see WP:NPOV, WP:CITE, WP:RS. —Pablo D.

Pepe Rosa
[edit]I´ve read the discussion about Pepe Rosa regading fascism, antisemitism, and the fact he that lived in Spain. Well, regarding fascism, quoting him saying "The fascism was an Italian nationalistic phenomenon of the 20's and 30's; it has so much to do with the Argentine nationalism like with the Vietnamese nationalism or the Cuban one. It is not up to me “to surpass the ambiguity” of those who cannot understand nationalisms; it is up to them, at risk to remain without understanding neither the past nor the present", I agree with him, fascism is nationalist but nacionalism is not necesarily fascism. He also said that Cuba was nationalist (wich indeed is), does that makes him a communist?. If we´re gonna quote him about that, he used to joke about Castro (who he admired) being Rosas descendant, ending the joke saying "but it would be nice, don´t you think?". Nationalism, I repeat, Is NOT fascism, or are you saying that people like Scalabrini Ortiz, Arturo Jauretche, JW Cooke (All friends of JMR), Rodolfo Walsh (who actually has articles praising the palestinian resistance), Abelardo Ramos (a jewish trotzkist nationalist) are fascist? And to name non argentinians, I could say Ben Gurion and Beguin, Nasser, Arafat, Ghandi, Neru, and so on. I hope this will clarify the diference between fascism and nationalsm, but you would have to understand that he was part of Peronist nationalism. Before you all start to scream about "Perón = nazi = fascist", I´ll quote Perón saying in Congress: "Antisemitism is Stupid". And the fact that even today there are blankets with the seal of "Fundación Eva Perón" in hospitals of northen Israel (interview with Raanan Rein [1]).THAT is the nationalism of Pepe Rosa. About antisemitism, read in "Religious interpretation of history", his first history book, the essay about Jesus, he actually praises him as a jewish nationalist. On an interview (I think is published in "History of revisionism" if im not mistaken) he says "Jewish people are so nationalist, that they do not accept others nationalism". ME, AS A JEWISH, AGREE WITH HIM. DOES THAT MAKES ME AN ANTISEMITE? Anyway, if his antisemitism was so important, why do we needed Muchnick to "expose" him, we should all already knew it. Or if it needed to be exposed, doesnt that means his antisemitism (if he had) was not a definig nor important part of his beliefs as an historian and politician. Being Ambassador of Perón third government meant to share his work with Gelbard (Minister of economy, jewish AND comunist), with Moises Ikonikoff (Jewish, Trotzkist and Ecologist!!), etc. He even spend his time trying to teach Miron Burgin (Jewish and an officer of the DoS) about Rosas´s economy. And the fact that he live in Spain, to say Franco´s Spain it is just a cheap trick. He also visited Cuba and came back saying he loved Castro (i´ll say it again: does that makes him a comunist?). And quoting him and his son (Eduardo Rosa), he went to Spain because if he staid in Argentina he was going to be executed for being part of General Valle´s uprising against the FASCIST MILITARY DICTATORSHIP and because they promised him to publish "The Fall Of Rosas", and he came back as soon as he could. I know many wont agree with this, but I hope my opinions help to remove what I think are false or out of place acussations; I didnt wanted to edit the article without discussing it first. ah, y perdón por alguna que otra falta de ortografía ;) Bebecooke 05:10, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
