By: height, number of cylinders/length, and turbocharger, that is not an engine used in any Chinese passenger car of any era. It is, rather, typical of mid to heavy duty trucks: eg competitors to Detroit/Caterpillar/Cummins in US, or producers such as Isuzu/Hino/Kubota in Japan. |

:This seems like a reasonable idea, however it may also be worth considering the ], his nomination for President was arguably the highlight of his career and what he will be remembered for so I'd be more inclined to use that image as the lead, however I would be fine if the Secretary of State photo is used as well since it is a major office and was taken only 8 years after his candidacy. ] (]) 08:07, 9 October 2024 (UTC) |

As someone who voted for John Kerry for President in 2004, I find a significant amount of opinionated bias in this article such as “ it appeared to be” statements which is someone’s opinionated prospective and a lack of the detail about the claims of the Swift Boaters while giving extensive detail about the positive aspects of John Kerry’s Service. Deification Of Kerry appears to this contributor to be the common theme of this Misplaced Pages page. |

Too bad the page is locked to ensure that other opinions or prospectives are not given the same freedom of speech rights that the person or persons who where allowed to present their prospective on this page were given. |

To bad we continue our rapid decline into a society of giving more rights of personal freedoms to some members then others. |

As a person who always try to support Misplaced Pages when asked for financial support, I will discontinue that practice and allow those that Misplaced Pages grants “”Special” freedoms to express their opinions and prospectives as factual History to provide all the support that Misplaced Pages needs. ] (]) 20:16, 14 January 2021 (UTC) |

:{{u|Catmandu57}}, "appeared to be" appears once in the article, sourced to ]. which backs up the statements in the article. Nothing opinionated there. We don't give the claims of the swift boaters any weight because they were fallacious.

:{{u|Catmandu57}}, PS, your "freedom of speech" cannot be abridged by the government, but it absolutely can be by a private enterprise like Misplaced Pages. That's called free market capitalism. I thought conservatives liked that? – ] (]) 20:32, 14 January 2021 (UTC) |

:Hombre, we don't do "Opinion" on Misplaced Pages. The "Swiftboat" complaints are a well documented fraud, and it *doesn't matter* if you have a different opinion, what matters is whats true, and we actually know those allegations are not true. So repeating them would violate multiple wikipedia rules on articles about living people, and worse, would be perpetrating things that aren't true. ] (]) 11:48, 30 January 2021 (UTC) |

Kerry was arrested on May 30, 1971, during a VVAW march to honor American POWs held captive by North Vietnam. The march was planned as a multi-day event from Concord to Boston, and while in Lexington, participants tried to camp on the village green. At 2:30 a.m., local and state police arrested 441 demonstrators, including Kerry, for trespassing. All were given the Miranda Warning and were hauled away on school buses to spend the night at the Lexington Public Works Garage. Kerry and the other protesters later paid a $5 fine, and were released. The mass arrests caused a community backlash and ended up giving positive coverage to the VVAW.X |

== John Kerry and unproven allegations about his disclosure of information to Iran == |
|
|
|
|
|
I noted this addition to the article yesterday: |
|
|
<blockquote>"In April 2021, Zarif claimed in a leaked audio that Kerry, when he was Secretary of State, informed him of more than 200 Israeli operations in Syria. Kerry called the claims unequivocally false."</blockquote> |
|
|
In this BLP of John Kerry, the passage is sourced from Fox News, . The original source is an article featured in The New York Times. The article is paywalled. Note that I am not casting aspersions on ]: they seem to have summarized and attributed the information from NYT accurately. I say that because of what I have read in coverage by U.S. political reporting specialty site, ]. According to their article, , the tape recording consisted of the Foreign Minister of Iran making remarks about John Kerry divulging sensitive, secret information to him, concerning a U.S. ally (Israel). |
|
|
|
|
|
These are the reasons that I am hesitant to have any additional information included in Kerry's BLP at this time: |
|
|
# the date of the recording is unknown, according to The New York Times—the information was widely known after a certain point in time (2018? 2019?) so timing makes a difference; |
|
|
# John Kerry was not recorded in the act of disclosing sensitive information to the Iranian foreign minister; |
|
|
# the recording consists of hearsay ONLY, by a high ranking Iranian official—keep in mind that Iran is an adversary of the United States; |
|
|
# other WP:RS have not reported on this (there is no mention of it in the Wall Street Journal for which I have a paid subscription); |
|
|
# there is ample reason for a foreign adversary to make such a claim about Kerry, whether true or not, as it serves to instill fear and distrust in the American people if they have doubt in high-ranking US officials such as Kerry; |
|
|
# Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif is accustomed to John Kerry"s sympathetic attitude to Iran, yet Zarif was reported to have expressed surprise that Kerry would divulge such information; |
|
|
# I am listening to former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on live television right now on FOX news Pompeo emphatically says that questions should be asked of John Kerry to hear his side of the story, and any other action is premature. Pompeo also said that Zarif is not necessarily to be trusted, because Zarif is a front man, possibly a propagandist. Pompeo is NOT sympathetic to Kerry in general. Regardless, in response to direct questioning, '''he refused to give his support to those who wish to take immediate action against Kerry now'''. |
|
|
|
|
|
My bullet points 5 and 6 are WP:SYNTH. The others are factual, to the best of my knowledge. Pompeo is a recent former US Secretary of State, so his conjectures are relevant.--] (]) 19:35, 27 April 2021 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:When I made the addition, I specifically wrote that Zarif claimed this, and not that anything had been proven. Everything I wrote is factual. And the reason I sourced ] is because I do not read the New York Times. Feel free to change the reference or add anything clarifying that the allegations are completely unconfirmed. ] (]) 19:54, 27 April 2021 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
::I want to make sure that this is clear: I am '''not objecting''' to the current content in the article. You did just fine, ]! (I am an avid Fox News television viewer.) You added a brief one or maybe two sentence description of the current situation. The source and details are good the way they are now. I merely wanted to caution subsequent editors from adding more detail until more facts are known, especially since this is a BLP.--] (]) 20:15, 27 April 2021 (UTC) |
