Why did you say my quote is a made-up quote when it is from your referenced document?

KazakPol, you reverted a refenced quote I added:

"Igor Rotar, a journalist and human rights activist for Forum 18, said

"Today we can only guess as to who is behind the recent terrorist acts in Tashkent – the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, Hizb ut-Tahrir (members of which categorically denied in conversations with this journalist their involvement in bombings; they also insisted that they are committed to peaceful tactics), or some other radical Islamic organization.".^[1]

"

You claimed it was made up, judging by your other entries related to Hizb ut-Tahrir, I am finding it increasingly difficult to give you the benefit of the doubt. Please read the reference in the above quoted aricle, it is in the 6th paragraph down. [1] Aaliyah Stevens 22:04, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

disputed statement

I suggest avoiding disputed terms on wikipedia, "Terrorism" is a term to be avoided or used sparingly. There were not major attacks of anykind in the Andijan massacre of 2005. If anything it qualifies for state terrorism. See EU sanctions on Uzbekistan and HRW documents on the history of the event.cs 14:24, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

POV of KazakhPol

Please, please someone make this article neutral. There are users here that are suspected of being part of government agencies, that are changing the whole pov of articles. This is especially true about this article, since only terrorism in Uzbekistan is state terrorism. As to point out all the "extremist groups" they are all made up by Uzbek government, to repress oppositions, by falsely accusing them so. See "Human Rights in Uzbekistan" for further information. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.116.92.202 (talk) 23:52, 1 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I can't help but agree! The word terrorism should be replaced with more neutral terms and the whole situation should be put in context. Uzbek government's own policies created radical Islamic groups. Both the Uzbek government and the radical groups exaggerate their power and significance for their own agendas. The point that the "threat of radical Islam in Uzbekistan is insignificant" gets lost. This article needs revisions to contextualize the whole picture.cs 00:00, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
