• I believe the hook (which anyway has no inline citation) is not borne out by the sources. Though USAID admitted to funding the service, its objectives in doing so is alleged rather than admitted. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:26, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

• Covert ops are not going to be confirmed by the government carrying them out, at least not before they're declassified after a long period of time. We can add words like "alleged" or whatever to the hook. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:47, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

• Need another opinion here. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:50, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

• Muboshgu - based on The Guardian article, we cannot necessarily report this as fact; add an allegedly or something, and I will approve the hook. Go Phightins! 02:23, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

• Fair point. I put it in the second clause, as the US Govt verified that they created it covertly, but are denying the suspected intent. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:49, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

• Looks good. Go Phightins! 19:12, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
