The World Zionist Organization was absent at the Evian conference of 1938 and USA just send a Bussinesman as a representative.
The Evian Conference was convened at the initiative of US President Franklin D. Roosevelt in July, 1938 to discuss the problem of Jewish refugees. For nine days, from July 6 to July 15, delegates from thirty-two countries met at Évian-les-Bains, France. Not much was accomplished, since most western countries were reluctant to accept Jewish refugees. The conference failed to pass even a resolution condemning German treatment of the Jews, a fact that was widely used in Nazi propaganda. The lack of action further emboldened Hitler, proving to him that no country had the moral fortitude to oppose Nazism's assault on European Jewry.Were Zionist somehow asking for the Holocaust?
