Was world war two to save the Jews?

Question

Im doing a project thing for english but I need to know if world war two was to save the jews and get rid of hitler...PLEASE HELP!!

Answer 1

Neither - FDR was trying to bail out the UK.

Answer 2

WW II was not fought to save Jews. Germany invaded Poland to start the war. The US entered the war after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor. Neither one of those acts had to do with Jews. If the world had wanted to save Jews during WW II, the allies would have entered the war in 1939 and started bombing the concentration camps/ railroad lines earlier than they did. The US and other allied countries knew of the German genocide of Jews earlier than 1941 and did nothing. Most countries wouldn't let Jewish refugees from Europe into their countries so they were usually sent back to Europe to die at the hands of the Nazis.

Answer 3

Germany was an economic & technological superpower with influence that reached deep into the middle East. Nasser of IRAN was kicked out by the British after WWII & replaced by the "puppet" Shaw of Iran because he was Pro Nazi & hated the jews. Hitlers fanaticism was rooted in what he thought was Jewish control of every administrative agency and bank of Germany. Hilter & Geobbels economic policies lifted Germany out of a decades long depression - which they claimed at the Neuremburg trials, was realized through breaking Jewish monopoly in every facet of German life. On the American side of things: All of the influentiual decision makers of the war were Jewish such as FDR and Eisenhauer. And out of WWII - the state of Isreal was created - Therefore, to suggest that saving the Jews was incidental to fighting Germany is fallacious.

Answer 4

Well the Allies wanted to save the world, and world war two, is a real life classic battle of good vs. evil, and luckily good kicked evils butt. So you could say in a way we were trying to save mankind, that includes the Jews. The big part, was to get rid of Hitler, by any means possible. Hitler just wanted world domination, and he almost acheived it 2.... Luckilly, many brave people stood up against him, and stopped him... The war was to preserve mankind, and to preserve freedom for all, and to eliminate those that threatened it...

Answer 5

you're terrific suited, the U. S. did not combat interior the conflict of england, regardless of the reality that distinct american pilots did volunteer and fly with the RAF. the U. S. did help throw the Italians and Germans out of N. Africa, and the British 8th military fought with an unfavorable lot of yankee made kit, that arrived on American provider provider ships. The Russians additionally fought with a large form of yankee made kit. i've got self assurance the U. S. offered jet technologies from the British. The Russians gained it from the British in a Billiards game. specific, on an identical time as the U. S. replaced into saving Europe, we did defeat the jap. dropping Nukes isn't plenty diverse than dropping incendiary bombs. ineffective is ineffective! yet whilst France desires to take credit for something, there does not be a u . s . if France hadn't sided with the human beings interior the Revolution. So i assume France extremely could get credit for triumphing WWII form of in a roundabout way. or according to risk we could continuously purely say it replaced into an allied deffort and go away it at that.

Answer 6

No. WW2 was to keap Hitler from getting England, Russia, and the States. In absolute legal terms, it started as an attempt to rescue Poland's sovereignty.

The truth is very few countries, including the Jewish Agency in Palestine really cared about saving Eastern Europe's Jews. They just weren't conisdered important as anything but a propaganda weapon to be used after the war.

Answer 7

It saved individual Jews but not Jews as a whole. One thing it did though was make most countries less anti-sematic and be more tolerant to them. Most countries, including the USA, had very strong anti-Jewish groups. For instance, Stalin probably put more Jews to death than did Hilter. 40 years earlier, Turkey performed genocide on over 1 million Jews. In the USA, such people as Henry Ford and George Kellogg were extremely anti-Jewish. Also, the USA refused to allow Jews fleeing Germany to migrate here.

Answer 8

A very small part of WWII was to save the Jews. Many other countries didn't even know the jews were being confined and exterminated in camps. Hitler was invading and taking control of alot of small countries in Eastern Europe and his master plan was to take over Europe.

Japan came into it later by taking control of small Asian islands and bombing Hong Kong and our own Pearl Harbor. That is how the US got involved.

Look up WWII online, there is tons and tons of info on it. Good Luck on your project.

Answer 9

To save the Jews, No. To get rid of Hitler, Yes.
Of course getting rid of Hitler did save some
of the Jews.

Answer 10

Hardly. Anti-semetism was quite rampant at the time- even in countries outside the axis.
Jews, if they managed to escape, were not allowed to emigrate to the US, or most other countries. In fact- it's more amazing that WWII was fought, even though the outcome would save some Jews.

Answer 11

We did not find out about the treatment of Jew until the war was almost over
