I think this is rather too many. The very first one, the Reichstag Fire, is probably relevant to his overall biography, but it was not germane to the story of his attempted exclusion from Australia. I can't see that it belongs in this article at all, but it certainly should not be in prime position. -- JackofOz (talk) 23:20, 24 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Evidence of Anti-Semitism

The Nazi's where distinctly anti-semitic, it was a mater of identity for them. As to evidence Australian government anti-semitism that is not at issue. Kisch warned of the dangers of the Nazi regime to jews, Communists, in fact to pretty much everyone not on board the fascist bandwagon and people like Lyons and Menzies did tend to see pre-war Hitler as a reforming, strong conservative with plenty of good ideas. While not overtly anti-Semitic, they undoubtably considered the interest of Hitler's government before any consideration of human rights as part of their respect for the German government. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Knoxdogwalking (talkcontribs) 14:03, 17 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Persecution or prosecution

edit

In The Government does a deal it says "Facing the dilemma that further persecution and legal wrangling simply promoted Kisch's cause, the Lyons Government proposed a compromise." Should this be persecution or prosecution? RJFJR (talk) 03:18, 20 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
