Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After Kristallnacht, many Jews tried to immigrate to other countries, including the United States, but often faced barriers such as strict immigration quotas and bureaucratic obstacles. Some countries, such as Cuba, also turned away Jewish refugees, including those aboard the St. Louis. There is no evidence that Jews organized systematic persecution and annihilation of European Gentiles. And while some countries, such as the United States, did eventually offer refuge to some Jewish refugees, there was no invitation for Jews of Poland, Germany, and Austria alone to immigrate.
