- 04:2604:26, 28 May 2024 diff hist −4 Lord Chamberlain's plays →History: Sentence did not quite parse; checked source and this is what is meant. We try to avoid scare quotes... "legitimate" means so-called legitimate, and if they weren't really legitimate we should say that... altho legitimate theatre is a real thing nowadays, I have to assume from context legal is meant. And they really WERE legal I guess. Could swap in legal for legitimate maybe. Source uses the scare points but we are required to use source for data but not exactly how it written.

Also, translation is poor, "policy" by itself is not an action while "war" is, thus the passage is not parallel. Both terms are used in translation. Why translators oft leave the "bloße" (in context, "simply/just/merely") out of the quote I don't know, but why should we. current

I'm not an apologist for anyone, but I'd think that "atrocity" would have to include egregious mistreatment like torture. Shooting prisoners is a war crime but not atrocius per se. Disconnecting someones oxygen is murder, but not atrocious IMO. There's one instance of beating someone to death, which is atrocious I guess, but it's a single instance, so "atrocities" plural doesn't fit. 2) no need to split syrian section
