To: leaning conservative
A recent thread here discussed Peter Hitchens's essay on England and the war: We Didn't Win The War (Peter Hitchens Reflects on World War II). The essay and the posts are worth the read. It is interesting in the context of these remarks by Lindberg.

Hitchens's essay pretty much said that nobody cared about the plight of the Jews. Not England, or the US, or Russia, or anyone. It certainly was not a motivating factor for entering the war. Then again, most people don't have the imagination to envision the horrors.

I'm sure some people figured the Jewish persecutions in Germany were no worse than the Jim Crow laws in the USA.
