1. So we, along with the Russians, the Brits, and others, did save the Jews
There were an handful left. We failed the Jews.

2. Poland is still here today.
No thanks to FDR or Churchill. Only thanks to God, for sending leaders like Ronald Reagan, JPII, and Lech Walesa. Poland would have been the same off whether it be German or Soviet rule. Poland has been though germanification before, and it survived.

3. Same goes for E. Europe.
Germanification or Russification? Choose your poison.

4. I wouldn't exactly say they "got away
Most war criminals got away, as there were hundreds of thousands of Germans who commited crimes against humanity. Hilter and Himmler weren't pulling every trigger you know. And today, while Poland is among the poorest in Europe, Germany is the strongest, most prosperous country in Europe, and third in the world. Yeah, those bastards got what they deserved alright!

After all, we didn't save South Vietnam, lost all of Indochina, and to a much greater extent, the North Vietnamese and VC got away scot free with all their atrocities.
My point exactly! You tell me the difference.

Bummer, respectfully, I don't recall saving the Jews ever being an issue!

I grew up with Jews. If THEY knew or anticipated the horror, it never got out into the neighborhood.

Again, I say .. it only became the Jewish World War after the damnable thing was over.
