Abstract

Did the Allies abandon the Jews? Did they actually know about the size and scope of the genocide taking place and simply look the other way? It's easy and even fashionable to argue that the Allies knew about the camps, that they overflew the railroad lines but did not bomb them. Why was no rescue effort of Jews and other persecuted minorities even attempted? Find out in this provocative new video presentation.
