undisambiguation

I have temporarily undisambiguated this page. All the links leading here refer to the modern Li Ao. The other Li Ao is probably more important, but the links leading here should be fixed before the disambiguation is made. Also, I think the convention is against using years as disambiguators. What is an accurate desciption of the modern Li Ao's job title? --Jia (ng) 04:01, 10 September 2004 (UTC)

Historian

I have removed the lines describing Li as historian from the article. I do not believe there is evidence supporting Li as a historia. Whoever prefers to attribute Li as a historian, please convince us with his articles or historical papers published in either international or domestic historical journals if it is not too much trouble. Many thanks.Mababa 04:24, 21 January 2005 (UTC)

Let's be realistic and search his works on this website:

http://w2.books.com.tw/data/search_book_exact.html

Not too many are history related. If there is, most of them are weird and conspiracy theories. I believe few of them would be scholar/researcher standard work though I do not bother to read them. Did he get a master or PhD on history? Did he publish any scholarly work or published on international journals? If his works make him qualify as historian, then does Sci/Fi channel producers qualify as scientists? Please help me understand how important it is to credit him to be a hisotrian or even make him sounds like a historian?Mababa (talk) 02:58, 6 February 2005 (UTC)

Yeah he is a historian. You should go to a library and borrow some of his books. All of them have lots of sources backing up his thesis. The particular ones I've read include a pretty scathing attack on Chiang Kai-shek, and a historical revisionist work on 陳炯民, analyzing the early periods of KMT government. Most people would classify him as a historian. Wareware(talk) 07:24, 6 February 2005 (UTC)

I searched the books.com.tw and found some historical works, like the one about CKS. However, I noticed too that most of them are criticisms and weird things. This is because most of his historical works were included in 文星 or some other magazines, and you have to buy 李敖大全集 to read them. Wareware (talk) 07:28, 6 February 2005 (UTC)

Also check the article on David Irving, even though Li Ao is probably ten times more meticulous in his research. Wareware (talk) 07:32, 6 February 2005 (UTC)

I guess you are probably a disciple of Li Ao and must have been a expert on his work. I will rest my case here unless other people has more stringent criteria on the title historian. I am still skeptical on calling him historian myself, though.

Interestingly, I have noticed that Li Ao has some tax dispute with ROC financial authorities and they managed to confiscate ~20 of his 李敖大全集 from his home for auction. All of them failed to be sold in that auction. His salary as a legislator would be deducted on the payday until the tax is cleared.Mababa (talk) 07:48, 6 February 2005 (UTC)

Some news about Li Ao

記者：李先生俠骨柔情，多年來寫文章批評人家不講情面，不手軟，包括美國，但從未批評過我們共產黨，可以感覺到你對我們党蠻友好。

李敖：我對《毛選》、《鄧選》(《毛澤東選集》、《鄧小平文選》)和《列寧選集》掌握最熟。這跟小的時候有關，我在北京時就痛恨國民黨，向往共產黨，對左派刊物比較感興趣。所以我們大家都有一個共同的夢，就是希望中國強大起來，繁榮起來，跟資本主義鬥。我們這代人比較愛國。我在臺灣不是藍色，也不是綠色，是紅色，我不掩飾這一點，就像西班牙的大畫家畢卡索一樣。

記者：去年你還說過，“中華民國”是僞號，你這一來不就當了僞“立法委員”了？

李敖：哎，他們是僞的，我是真的(笑)。所以，我現在是無產階級參加資產階級議會，是要顛覆它。

三月底，立委及名作家李敖，公然在立法院上亮出刀子，並要國防部長李傑割「LP」（睪丸）展現保衛台灣決心。

四月上旬，李敖在立法院上要列席的六位國立大學校長及教育部長杜正勝「排排站」，指校長們沒有知識份子風骨，不配當大學校長，更八次叫試圖辯解的杜正勝「閉嘴」，還說大學校長是「水肥」；而出現資格爭議的師大校長黃光彩，更因李敖「你在我眼中不夠資格當大學校長，走開」一語而倖然離開會場（李敖是立委有此權力，他當時是在質詢）。奇怪的是，這些大學校長都很聽話，遭受這麼大的羞辱，即使事後也沒有「不爽」的反應。前台灣暨南大學校長李家同就看不過眼出聲，反被李敖等立委指「迂腐」。

"After flashing a series of CIA-endorsed documents to reporters, he mailed them to Annette Lu, claiming that she would need to know the full extent of truth about the killing attempt."

I believe this is unsubstantiated. What reports place these documents as officially "CIA-endorsed"? I recall that one news story described these documents as "littered with spelling errors" and not very authentic-looking. Moreover, this should be big news if proved true. However nothing regarding this has appeared on the CIA website.

Therefore I strongly feel that the above paragraph should be modified.

Deciding whether the CIA documents are authentic isn't within our jurisdiction. How many of us have seen the documents first hand? We just need to report the incident, not pass judgment on them. Nothing has suggested the documents are real; nothing has been proven that they aren't either. Mandel (talk) 16:06, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Shouldn't this be mentioned: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/23/international/asia/23china.html

"During an address at Beijing University on Wednesday evening, broadcast live on a cable television network, Mr. Li chided China's leaders for suppressing free speech, ridiculed the university administration's fear of academic debate and advised students how to fight for freedom against official repression." ... "Though Mr. Li did not criticize President Hu directly, he made pointed references to the lack of freedoms in China and suggested that the "poker-faced" bureaucrats of the Communist Party did not have enough faith in their legitimacy to allow normal intellectual discussion." ... "With several top university officials sitting by his side, he called the administrators "cowardly" for ferreting out professors at the school who were suspected of opposing Communism." ... "Though his arrival in China was covered prominently by the state-run media and his speech was viewed on television by millions around China, propaganda authorities imposed a blackout on reporting about his visit after the speech." Bayle Shanks (talk) 19:19, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

a copy: http://taiwansecurity.org/NYT/2005/NYT-230905.htm

Have you heard the speech? It's not as pertinently anti-Communist as suggested. There's also no "blackout" as suggested by NY Times either, in fact many have expressed surprise at how tolerant the Chinese authorities have been on broadcast. I know this for a fact as I subscribe to CCTV. Mandel (talk) 16:06, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Trivia

The link [1] in the trivia section is pretty useless for english readers....--Deglr6328 (talk) 23:07, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Comments about Singaporeans

I removed this passage. Please reword so that it is less awkward and encyclopedic. Also, perhaps this should be removed permanently because it is not significant. Kent Wang (talk) 15:52, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

In a TV show he explained why he said Singaporeans are "stupid". He said that is because although Singapore is a successful country, there aren't many outstanding individuals that he knows of. He said although Singaporeans don't break rules, they also don't stand out. Thus giving him an impression that Singaporean are "stupid". The full transcript in chinese is here[2].

Title of article

His Web page at the Legislative Yuan Web site uses "Lee Ao."[3] Should the article be moved in accordance therewith? --Nlu (talk) 18:06, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
