Why can’t you place things in context? The 1939 White Paper limiting Jewish immigration came as Britain desperately — and all alone, I hasten to add — tried to counter Hitler.

Surely Americans, and Freepers in particular, can understand that when you are facing the destruction of your society — as the US did in the War on Terror — everything else must take second place. If the British hadn’t succeeded in standing up to Hitler, it is quite possible that the extermination of the Jews in Europe would have been fully completed.

And as for the King David Hotel, it killed more Jewish and Arab civilians than it did British soldiers (who you seem to see as a legitimate ally despite the fact that the British and American militaries were the closest of allies)

The 1939 White Paper limiting Jewish immigration came as Britain desperately — and all alone, I hasten to add — tried to counter Hitler.

A remarkable lie.

The White Paper doomed who knows how many Jews to Hitler's ovens.
