...anti-immigrant nativist sentiment that pervaded the United States in that era-some of which bears an uncomfortable resemblance to the rhetoric of Pat Buchanan and his herd of sheep-was one reason for the reluctance to absorb the homeless refugees. Hitler's righthand propaganda czar went as far as to say "At bottom... I believe both the English and the Americans are happy that we are exterminating the Jewish riff-raff." This is certainly the conclusion he would have been led to if he was aware that Roosevelt had the ability to order a bombing of the railway lines...
...came as little surprise that the British government would refuse the natural historical and religious right of the Jews to return to Israel (then known as Palestine). The sentiment of the Arabs, of course, did not leave room for any misinterpretation--the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem met with Hitler on at least one occasion to discuss his personal perspectives on and possible answers to the so-called "Jewish question...

Chibana led thousands of protesters this weekend outside his land at a U.S. Navy communications center, causing a potential embarrassment for Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto. Hashimoto wants to quiet anti-U.S. military sentiment before President Clinton visits Japan later this month. "If Okinawans start demonstrating when Clinton is here like they did in October, this could backfire in Hashimoto's face," TIME correspondent Irene M. Kunii says. More than one million people demonstrated in October in response to the brutal rape...
