did any countries do anything to help stop the events of the holocaust?

Question

if you are kgv student post too

Answer 1

Unfortunately no! Thew horror of the Holocaust was confirmed after the end of hostilities in Europe although there were more than hints that concentration camps existed . Even though the Nazi regime tried to cover its tracks, they really did not succeed. The civilized world was shocked when photographs of the camps and those poor souls who had barely survived were made public.

Answer 2

Not really.None of the declarations of war given to germany did mention the holocaust as a reason for entering the war, not even the american.There are several reasons for this, mostly that the US did not want to be seen as being under jewish influence, which was just what nazi propaganda claimed.
A question that constantly arises among historians is why Stalin did not have his airforce bomb the railroad tracks that led to Auschwitz (he could have done that).To my knowledge, that question is not satisfactorily answered yet.
Most western countries,including switzerland and the US furthermore put restrictions on accepting jewish refugees.

The reason for this, as stated by Alfi333, is mainly that the full extent of the holocaust was known by a few, but the bigger part of each countries population thought it was just wartime propaganda, until the truth came out at the end of the war.

Answer 3

A few tried and were obliterated. Hundred's of thousand of Polish people & Russians died trying to stand up to Hitler and his regime.

Then after the US was forced into the war, we came in and kicked butt, so we helped, just later.

Answer 4

Many of the countries of the world joined together and conquered Germany, as soon as they were able to to amass their armies and attack.....

Answer 5

Nah, they are nothing
