There are many many people who think that the holocaust was a hoax and there are also people who think that the americans and the other allies did not help soon enough. what is your opinion on this?

Actually a lot of groups think it's a hoax.
It definitely wasn't a hoax, but as brutal as this may sound -- it was none of our business. If Hitler didn't declare war on us (he did on December 11th, four days after Pearl Harbor -- up until then we were only at war with Japan, not Germany), I would have advocated isolationism back then -- WWII gave FDR many excuses to continue to shore up his power... the fact of the matter is, 5 million people died as a result of American intervention anyway, so even if the Holocaust killed all the remaining Jews in Europe (4.5 million), still more lives would have been saved by America remaining neutral. Furthermore, Stalin was ALREADY WINNING on the Eastern front by the end of 1941. He was building three and a half tanks for every tank Hitler built. By remaining neutral, we would have had a very powerful Germany as a counterweight to Soviet Russia, and thus the Cold War would have been a fight between Hitler and Stalin -- no Arms Race, no MI Complex, no Korea, and no Vietnam -- millions of lives saved. And we would also have saved our Constitution from the ravages of war -- in World War II, we put almost a third as many people into Concentration Camps as Hitler did. |
