Ukrainian conflict

Took out the overt political references blaming Poroshenko for inciting conflict, for purposes of returning the article to an apolitical stance.67.175.85.9 (talk) 19:24, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Unorganized

This whole article needs to be reorganized. Lose the horizontal lines, get some headings going to organize the material and help it to flow better, and remove the redundant links in the term "Fifth Column".

That would be "Disorganized" ....

And World War I

The Ottomen massacre of Armenians is another example. The Armenians were seen as a proxy army for Russia. The Armenians had a different religion and wanted their own homeland. 

The perception that an internal minority (Fifth column) is working for an outside enemy can quickly switch our beehive brains into a killing machine!!.

The Rwandan massacres of April 1994 were also prompted by fear of external invasion. In this case moderate Hutus were seen a fifth column for a Tutsi takeover. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.107.175.241 (talk) 06:19, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

Picture deleted

Because it was too large. If necessary, resize and properly frame. Pennywisepeter

City of Heroes

This MMORPG had an NPC element called "The Fifth Column" with German Nazi markings that were eventually removed. The game has been decommissioned, and this reference may be hardly relevant to the article, but I figured it would be worth a mention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.103.4.14 (talk) 23:51, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

"Israeli Arabs"

This entire blurb is predicated on the assumption that occupied people who some assholes tar as "Israeli" should somehow show allegiance to said assholes. This is incorrect, and if anyone with enough WP points has the guts, it should be deleted as POV. Period. 174.115.100.93 (talk) 16:45, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
