To What Extent Were the German People Supportive of the Nazi Regime’s Anti-semitic
One of the areas of debate and contention following the discovery of the Nazis holocaust against the Jews was to the extent to which the German people were supportive of the anti-Semitic policies of the Nazi party and the extent to which they knew the full implications of those policies. Germany had some of the most assimilated Jewish communities in Europe that had made many contributions to Germany’s culture, society and economy.

i have personally spoken with a women who grew up in the Nazi ruled Germany during the war and they did not know where the Jews had gone when they had disappeared. Many believed they had gone to America to escape. Most Germans did not agree nor assist the Nazi movement.
