History would have us believe that nothing could have been done to save the Jews of Germany and Europe. That no one knew what Hitlers plan was and no one knew of the eventual fate for the Jews of Europe.

But at this conference held in Evian, France 1938 President Franklin D Roosevelt called the nations of the World together to discuss the plight of the German and Austrian Jews. All involved knew what was already happening to the Jews, many Jews had already fled after the first wave of actions and persecutions. So no Government could ever say they were not aware. They knew of the Nazis and they knew of Hitler. What is even worse is that they could have paid Hitler and his henchmen to free these people but they did nothing.

All through the conference it became clear that no one wanted those troublesome Jews in their country. So the great leaders and nations of the World closed the doors on millions of Jews and left them to their fate and gave Hitler his green light to rid the World of the Jews. Was that their real intent, if they were fully aware of Hitler and his plans were they not complicit in the Holocaust?

After the conference Hitler was quoted as saying;

"Nobody wants them' claimed the German newspaper Völkischer Beobachter after the Evian Conference in July 1938 and Hitler gloated, saying, 'It is a shameful spectacle to see how the whole democratic world is oozing sympathy for the poor tormented Jewish people, but remains hard hearted and obdurate when it comes to helping them"

You might want to reconsider using tactics like mocking the senseless deaths of millions of people by putting a copyright symbol after it.

You'll reach far more people by keeping statements specifically intended to antagonize members to a minimum.

Just a suggestion.

MrPenney, are you suggesting that the occurrence of other cruelties excuses Israel's action against the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank or that the occurrence of equal and greater atrocities elsewhere in the world should divert everyone's attention from those occurring in Palestine? It is a ludicrous argument you make, i.e. the existence of other tragedies make this one trivial. Give us all break.
