    The genocide needs to stop. Support BDS and No Thanks.

    I’m just talking about history context.

        That’s a fair take, put yourself in that timeframe. WW2 just ended, you’re one of the world leaders and you learned all about the “final solution”.

        what do you do? how do you prevent another genocide of the Jews?

          Give them sanctuary with protected status in your own country rather than driving other people out of some other country.

            Bit of an idealistic answer but I like it.

            Points for consideration, there were a handful of ships full of Jews during WW2 seeking asylum. It’s widely believed that world leaders knew of or suspected that the Holocaust was murdering Jews around the time those boats were rejected for asylum.

            Additionally, even after people knew the details of the Holocaust people still didn’t really like Jews.

            how would you account for those points?

            also thank you for engaging with me on this. I’m genuinely enjoying our conversation!
