5HolocaustWorld+Reaction

= World Reaction: =  On April 19, 1943, the United States met with Britain in Bermuda to try to think of a plan to rescue the victims of the Holocaust. President Roosevelt (FDR) was informed and created the War Refugee Board (WRB). This created the Fort Ontario Refugee Center, which was an attempt to rescue the victims of the Holocaust. In the spring of 1944, Jews pleaded fro the U.S. to bomb poison gas chambers and railroad tracks leading to concentration camps. However, the U.S. did not do any of these. U.S. officials argued that allies would bomb military targets to win World War II as quickly as possible.
