The original poster stated that Thyssen and Bush were part and parcel of
some Nazi illegal money-laundering campaign, as proven, the man said,
because the Fedral Gummit shut them down in 1942.  By that time, Thyssen
had long broken with the Nazis and was in a concentration camp.  I suspect
he did nothing earlier which was, at that time, illegal under US law, and
the Nazis had seized all of his assets by the time anything illegal was
done.  Therefore it seems a bit harsh for condemning him for illegal acts
committed after the Germans had seized his companies.
