The Germans are not a separate race, they are part of the Caucasian race (the Jews are also parts of). The Germans are rather a nation, irrespective of citizenship.

........ notes pictures of what was happening there, which then were presented in the U.S.A. to members of the American Government about the Final Solution the Nazis had adopted, they were rejected out of hand, as nobody could conceive that a highly intelligent and respected race of people like the Germans could ever contemplate  such barbaric inhumane actions against their fellow man.................

Kevin, I think the problem is more complex than the way you have presented it.

1. The U.S.A. of 1944 was not the U.S.A. as it is today. By summer of 1944, the American government knew quite well about what was happening in Auschwitz. An air raid targeting the railroads converging to the entrance to Auschwitz could stop for many weeks the flow of trains with Jews sent there for extermination. However, the persons to approve this air raid decided the goal does not worth the raid.

2. In the spring of 1944, the leaders of the SS sent Jewish envoys to present to the British a "trade off" plan. The ratio of the bargain: 100 Jews in exchange for one transport truck. They expected to obtain 10,000 transport trucks in exchange for the 1,000,000 Jews living in what was then Hungary (i.e. Hungary as it is today, plus the WWII territorial gains).
The British did not accept the trade, for several reasons. Unfortunately, one of the reasons was that they would have to take care of and settle into the British Empire 1,000,000 undesired people.

Waiting the British answer, Himmler and Eichmann delayed the "final solution" for about two months. After the deal was clearly rejected by the British officials, the 1,000,000 Jews living in what was then Hungary got their fate as we know it today.

I never compared the Government of the USA WW2 period to the Government of the USA today in my post did I?

You really believe the British had such trucks to spare. rolleyes.gif

Anything Hungary got was for siding with the Nazis plain and simple.

Nice attempt at history revisionism though, but the attempt is lost on me.

Yes, you did not make the comparison, but you presented the facts as Americans in the government who did not do anything to stop the Holocaust only because they could not believe that the Germans would do such a thing. I just added that some of these American officials believed it, but they did not care.

That was one of the "several reasons" I mentioned. It seems the SS leaders overestimated America's industrial might.
But if the Allies would spare only 1000 trucks, they would save 100,000 people.
Again... they did not care.

With this one, I am little bit confused. Are you referring to my post? History revisionism, according to my understanding, means the attempt to falsify and bend history to serve somebody's interests.
I learned the information presented here from documentaries created by competent and professional Jewish teams, sponsored by various Jewish organizations.

It was the movie "the boy in the stripped pyjamas":

Not only the german boy could entered the camp, but the jew boy it seems got out when he liked. I don't know if the movie action was inspired by reality, but if yes, it seems the issue is not such recent, and probably there were many cases
