New Jew laws

America before the war
On a side note America, who was in the middle of their depression, had kept their isolationist policy, agreeing to not join any foreign wars to "keep our boys safe." However we later find out that theirs not avoiding WW2. -
More Laws less Jews.
The war hasn't started however that's not stopping Hitler. He has already started creating laws against Jews and as of October 25th Hitler and Mussolini created the Rome-Berlin Axis. America, meanwhile, was in the middle of their depression, struggling with money, jobs, and much much more. -
Buchenwald Opens.

War is looming
In 1938, so much important moves and events occurred. A lot of concentration camps started opening and the last of Anti-Jewish laws were put in place. Jews were starting to be shipped to camps for their executions or in the best case slave work. The U.S really had no learning of these camps until later and the U.S just sat an took no part in foreign affairs. -
The War against Hitler
This is it. This is the beginning of the war. Hitler and his nation against the world. Destroying culture, civilization and much more. Jews are now forced to wear a yellow band or a star around them and paint it on their house. Multiple camp were opened and Jews were starting to be shipped to camps. The U.S. STILL took no part and wouldn't join for another 2 years. -
War through the years
From 1939 to 1942, millions of Jews are exterminated. Adolf and his Nazi nation had no heart killing millions of people and Jews. There were hundreds of camps, that exterminated thousands a day each. America finally joined the war in 1941 helping contribute troops, supplies and money for the allies. America was also at war with Japan. -
Jewish immigrants to U.S
From 1933 to 1941 more than 200,000 Jewish immigrants immigrated to the U.S in need of protection and safety. This may seem like a lot however many people are still haunted by the amounts of people turned away from the U.S. With our strict visa laws and being in the hart of the depression people already couldn't find jobs. That's why the U.S had quota's. -
End of the War
Fast forward to the end of the war. The allies win the war against Fascist government ran by Hitler. America had defeated Japan also however WW2 ha the most deaths EVER in a war with millions of people killed and millions of Jews exterminated. Camps were being destroyed only after the damage had been done.
