The United States did not have good relations with the Jews before the war. Cases of anti-Semitism in the US often occurred, though not to the same degree and aggressiveness as in Europe. Moreover, the American government was indifferent to the suffering of the Jews.

The United States joined the Allies struggle against the Axis countries (i.e. Germany, Italy, and Japan) in World War II to defend democracy, not to save the Jewish victims of the Nazi regime.

However, in January 1944, the US government established a War Refugee Commission to try to rescue and provide assistance to Jews and other minority groups being decimated by the Nazis. During the last year of the war, US initiatives effectively saved tens of thousands of lives. In the spring of 1945, the Allied Forces, now counting on the collaboration of millions of US soldiers, defeated Nazi Germany and its Axis collaborators, thus ending the Holocaust process.

Think about the positive and negative impacts of government on individuals in society. Why is government necessary in the United

andreev551 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Government is necessary for the population because it is through it that rules and guidelines are established that seek to establish the common good, equally, to all individuals in the country. However, although these rules are, in fact, created and implemented in society, the government often does not act fairly, especially when it allows cases of corruption to be established. These cases, instead of creating the common good, the government exploits citizens. For this reason, it is necessary that there is a strong inspection and collection of the population on government actions.

Explain the Dred Scott lawsuit and how he felt his rights had been violated.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The Dred Scott decision, or lawsuit as you put it, was a case where it was stated by the court that people of African descent could not be American citizens and had no standing in court. They, whether free or not, had no power to regulate slavery in the United States. His rights have been violated for many reasons. He was accused of standing in court for just being black. It was very unconstitutional and found by many historians as one of the worst Supreme Court decisions ever made.
