New Grant article

Hello Rjensen. I created Native American policy of the Ulysses S. Grant administration to reduce the article size of the Presidency of Ulysses S. Grant article. Any edits or improvements would be much appreciated. Thanks. Cmguy777 (talk) 04:36, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

good idea – I will take a look at it. Rjensen (talk) 07:38, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wilson again

I'm hopeful that you can save me some time by telling me if this is known information or not. I wasn't even looking for things on Wilson:

What I am working on is User:Deisenbe/sandbox#Confederate Memorial Hall, which still needs some info I have to write up on the legal problems that led to its closure - $500,000 contempt of court fine on Hurley, though for what I haven't found. But I have the first stage of it. Hurley seems to be a nut, conspiracy theories stuff, not rational. deisenbe (talk) 04:05, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hurley was in it for the money, i think. try looking at https://books.google.com/books?id=c60nAAAAMAAJ&q=%22+John+Edward+Hurley%22+confederate+OR+memorial&dq=%22+John+Edward+Hurley%22+confederate+OR+memorial&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjR04-mzfLhAhVGHjQIHYFiAPYQ6AEILzAB Rjensen (talk) 10:44, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can you provide the full text of this? I don't have access to proQuest or Lexis. deisenbe (talk) 11:57, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have access either – you need a university library and to help you. University libraries will probably have a copy in the government documents collection, or can obtain one interlibrary loan. Rjensen (talk) 12:05, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower - Semi Protected Edit Rquest

Ciao Dr. Jensen -Allow me to thank you for your thoughtful editorial assistance in developing articles as an Wikipedian Historian Editor. I have enjoyed your professional contributions immensely. When you have some extra, kindly examine the Request for Editorial Assistance on the Semi-Protected Page for Dwight D. Eisenhower which has been posted on the Talk Page here:Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower. The request includes a link for Eisenhower's consistent efforts during the cold war to encourage the use cultural diplomacy (through the Dept. of State) in order to stabilize and improve international relations in Europe (most notably in Germany) even as he attempted to protect American interests by threatening Communist China with nuclear war during Operation Teapot. The strategy is reminiscent of Franklin D. Roosevelt's use of cultural diplomacy during World War II in South America while a military confrontation was orchestrated to neutralize the Nazi occupation of Europe. Perhaps if you have time you might assist in the task of incorporating this reference to cultural diplomacy into the article about Eisenhower, or if you prefer , share your scholarly insights about Eisenhower's use of cultural diplomacy as summarized in the reference citations which have been provided. I hope you find them to be of interest. P.S. You might also enjoy reading the article about the Seventh Army Symphony Orchestra which was established in Germany by one of America's leading modern composers (Samuel Adler) and was commended by Eisenhower for accelerating the establishment of peaceful German-American relations during the cold war in the 1950s. It makes fascinating reading! Enjoy! Thanks again for your thoughtful scholarly assistance and best wishes for your continued success on Wikipedia. With best regards 104.207.219.150 (talk) 21:50, 3 May 2019 (UTC)PS[reply]

thanks for the suggestion....I will take a look. Rjensen (talk) 22:12, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure Prof. Jensen: Many thanks in advance for you kind assistance! PPS. You may also enjoy reading the article about Professor Robert L. Holmes - a contemporary colleague from your era at the University of Rochester and a noted scholar of moral philosophy who has published and lectured extensively on the Philosophy of non-violence and pacifism as a moral imperative in the age of international nuclear proliferation and intercultural conflict! Enjoy! With best regards 104.207.219.150 (talk) 22:52, 3 May 2019 (UTC)PS[reply]

I’m not sure why you call 1948 a civil war. Israel was clearly established as an independent country by the UN. The Arab nations attacked Israel the BNE then morning. No civil war judtvan attack, perhaps the professor needs ri review UN records. Stop tryin* to rewrite history.

It seems to me that you are wrong. Britain in 1864 did not oppose the policy of Bismarck, his famous saying "blood and iron". Palmerston simply could not understand the new time and the historian Pemberton writes it.
