Talk:Fritz Thyssen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lots of non NPOV stuff left -- I fixed some typos and added the numbers of shares of Union Banking Corporation (prior typo was "United"), and, rather than gutting the article, added warnings to the iffy sections. Also added the Harriman links. --- Dave Dec. 14, 2005
[edit] Something doesn't smell right
I'm leaning heavily to taking out the section on Thyssen's supposed August 1944 meeting with industrialists on a post-war future for Nazism. It strikes me as odd that the Nazis, particularly if they hated Thyssen as much as the article alleges, would have temporarily released him from a concentration camp to go to a secret meeting of industrialists, or even odder that he would have returned to the camp.

This article consists mostly of unsourced slanders and looks to me like a LaRouche hatchet job. I will try to find some factual material about Thyssen. He wasn't a very nice man but he did finish up in a concentration camp so I think he is entitled to fair treatment. All the irrelevant stuff about the Bush family should be deleted.

I have now rewritten the article. Adam 11:50, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "German nationalist"
Why is his nationality mentioned again? And what does qualify him to be a nationalist more than the average person of those times? --AchtungAchtung 19:14, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
