Many people were denying that it happened. Many wanted to stay out of the war in Europe claiming that it was none of our business. When the war was over, people blamed the U.S. Government for not getting involved sooner and saving lives. Sort of like what's going on now.

The United States wasn't involved until later in the war. They didn't join until after Pearl Harbor in 1941 (December 7). Then the US was focused mainly on Japan but later became involved with liberating Jews from concentration camps. This was their primary role during the Holocaust. So to sum it up, the US was one of the main liberators of camps during the holocaust.

The United States didn't help. It is not clear how much the government knew, but there are reports that it was suspected that people were being killed in camps. The main thrust of the United States was to fight the war and to win.

well during the holocaust, we basicly fought in wwii. because we didnt know about the holocaust until the end of the war when we found the camps. so we ccouldnt really help all the people that were hurt in the holocaust. but we did help as much as we could after we found the camps.

The United States involvement in the holocaust consisted of:

  • Elimination of Hitler and the Nazis by defeating the Nazi Regime
  • Helping Jews to escape countries during the years of Jews being rounded up
  • Helping Jews to relocate to other countries during and after the war
  • Burying the dead Jews they found unburied or unburnt.
  • Helping the Jews who had survived their imprisonment.
  • Providing medication and care for the sick ones.
  • Relocation of the freed Jews. The bulk of them went to the United States and many went to Israel. Some went to other countries or stayed in Europe.
  • Development of Foundations for Holocaust Victims
  • Legal assistance to retrieve stolen money, art and other valuables
  • Legal assistance to get money out of the Swiss Banks.
  • Legal assistance to get retribution from Germany for the atrocities and deaths
  • Worldwide education of the atrocities and deaths of the Jews
  • Continuation of the above steps for the young people of the world.
