I would take out the more emotional aspects by using negative attributes to trademarkowners, ICANN staff etc. This looks too ideological, weakens the document as the "known position of the usual suspects" and is not needed. for me.

I would dd a "historical section " which refers to the argument in 1997-2000 why NSI - which was at the same time registry and registrar - hat to give away the registrar service and why the White Paper called for more competition and seperation.
