That's not how the international bankers roll. They can easily and quietly dump money into someone's bank account without public backlash - they do that sort of thing all the time. They're too prideful to allow someone to hold one of their own for ransom like that. In some of their own publications, they admitted applying "informal financial pressure" internationally in order to get the Germans to let Louis go. It really pissed them off.
Was that just a mechanism to give the Nazis $21M overtly without public backlash?
