| And tell me, what would you have expected American Jewry to do in the 1930s? Unlike today, American Jewry back then was hardly as successful and integrated within American society. They held very little influence, even when they did protest on behalf of their European breathren (and they did do so). America at that time was very xenophobic and very antisemitic. The US, just like many other potential safe havens, did not want to bring in the Jews, and they weren`t about to heed the protests of their country`s Jews, whom they despised. The Allies didn`t care about the fate of Euro Jews back then, and there really wasn`t anything American Jews could have done about it. Stop being such a crybaby Israeli. |
