Your Argument: "The claims are not supported by the references." - Said Claims In Question: (1) "Rowan oversaw deals that sold vital equipment for the processing of materials that significantly improved the accuracy of nuclear warheads to foreign nations...", (2) "... such as the Soviet Union, China, and Iraq.", and (3) "... war profiteer, ..." - Claim I: "Rowan oversaw deals that sold vital equipment for the processing of materials that significantly improved the accuracy of nuclear warheads to foreign nations..." Evidence: Refs 1 (News - direct quotation, read article), 2 (News, read article), 3 (House of Representatives, read congressional record) The material in question has the potential to significantly improve the accuracy of nuclear weapons. (True) Inductotherm profited from the sales (some sales went through, some were blocked by Congress). (True) Rowan oversaw said deals as CEO. (True) Conclusions: Thus, Henry Rowan is an individual who was compensated accordingly from transactions to foreign nations that improved nuclear weapon accuracy. - Claim II: "... such as the Soviet Union, China, and Iraq." Evidence: Conclusion: Said foreign nations involved in the contracts are the Soviet Union, China, and Iraq. - Claim III: "...war profiteer,..." Evidence: Conclusion: It follows that Henry Rowan is a war profiteer. - References: 1. http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1987-11-08/news/0160070102_1_consarc-carbon-soviet-union 2. http://articles.philly.com/1998-07-03/business/25736765_1_consarc-furnace-export-license 3. https://fas.org/news/china/1998/h980618-prc11.htm - Closing Remarks: All you have to do is read the articles and it's evident that Henry Rowan, the acting CEO of Inductotherm Industries, oversaw said deals. Said deals involved the selling of furnaces which could further be used for improving the accuracy of nuclear weapons. The deals invoked investigation by the federal government, and some deals were blocked by the federal government due to "fearing the furnace could be used in the production of nuclear weapons, according to a report in Defense News, a military trade journal.". (Reference 3) Honestly now, how are said claims not supported by the references? Did you even read the articles (and the federal record)? On a more practical and common sense level, how else do you think he made the money to finance his philanthropic efforts? Selling furnaces to mom and pop shops?
 * Soviet Union: Ref 1 (True)
 * China: Refs 2, 3 (True)
 * Iraq: Refs 2, 3 (True)
 * By definition, "a war profiteer is any person (Henry Rowan) or organization (Inductotherm) that profits from warfare or by selling weapons and other goods to parties at war."
 * Claims I (profiting), II (parties involved)


 * I see that you are new, and may not yet understand how things work around here. When I removed the BLP violation, I invited discussion on the talk page. That doesn't mean YOUR talk page, it means the article talk page. Please make your argument Here: Talk:Henry_Rowan -- S Philbrick (Talk)  18:36, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
