Jews invented the idea of workers rights-----in both England
and in New York City. The democrat party used to be---
during the first half of the 20th century----the party of workers'
rights. It was waspy repubs who were anti semites
Let's check:
"...
Roosevelt’s most despicable statements about Jews, extensively documented in a series of on-line commentaries by Rafael Medoff, ...did the depths of Roosevelt’s
loathing for Jews, and refusal to lift a finger ... to rescue them, fully penetrate.
As far back as 1920, when FDR was the Democratic party candidate for vice president, he had proposed that “the greater part of the foreign population of the City of New York” should be “distributed to different localities upstate” so as to feel pressure to “conform to the manners and customs and requirements of their new home.”As a member of the Harvard board of directors
he supported a Jewish admissions quota.
In 1941
he told his Cabinet that too many Jews were federal employees in Oregon.
One of his grandsons recalled that
the protagonists in FDR’s jokes “were always Lower East Side Jews with heavy accents.”
At a wartime White House luncheon with Prime Minister Churchill, he suggested “the best way to settle
the Jewish question”was “to spread the Jews thin all over the world.”
At the 1945 Yalta conference, FDR indicated to Stalin that as a concession to the king of Saudi Arabia he would “give him the six million Jews in the United States.”
Betrayal: FDR and the Jews
Kinda got Jewish Liberals prepared to support a President who is all about throwing Israel under the bus.....
...but, heck......
....as long as he is a Democrat.
"...
Roosevelt’s embedded anti-Semitism was not confined to jokes. It was displayed in the
refusal of the American government in 1939 to admit the desperate refugees on board theS.S. St. Louis,who were returned to Germany [to their deaths] – or to even fill the quotas that authorized the limited admission of Germans.
It was revealed in American government suppression of information about the mass murder of European Jews.
The White House [read 'Roosevelt']
opposed a resolution to create the War Refugee Board and delayed its establishment for fourteen months.
Orders to bomb railroad tracks leading to the extermination camps were never given, although Nazi facilities merely five miles away were destroyed. And special American missions were launched to
rescue art treasures – and performing Lipizzaner horses."
[But not Jews.]
Betrayal: FDR and the Jews
" Why did the administration actively seek to discourage and disqualify Jewish refugees from coming to the United States? Why didn't the president quietly tell his State Department (which administered the immigration system) to fill the quotas for Germany and Axis-occupied countries to the legal limit? That alone
could have saved 190,000 lives. It would not have required a fight with Congress or the anti-immigration forces; it would have involved minimal political risk to the president."
