Answer 2

It deeply affected us, as many of the Jews were related to people in the US. Also, America was Israel's friend at the time, and a friend of the Jews too, and this was diabolical, as Satan was behind it. Also, it affected our perception of Germany's stablity and way of doing things, as Hitler was now infamous for everything leading up until the holocaust, during it, and after it, as well as most, if not all, of his other ideas, plans and goals for his country and for the world. It solidified America's resolve to jump in, though my WWII memory is hazy, or to heighten the attention given to Germany, as the holocaust was intolerable, for anyone to put up with, or even to carry out, or to even think about carrying out.
