Persecution of The Jews

I thought this article was very straight forward and presenting the facts with almost no emotional attachment to the issue. It was presented as historically accurate as possible and I really liked that aspect of the article. I was unaware of all the different smaller steps taken by the Nazi's to try and get the Jewish population to move out such as barring them from taking "German names". I wonder why more of the Jewish population didn't see this as signs and move quicker, but it was their home and I couldn't imagine being in their situation. I think the other global super powers at the time, including the United States, handled the immigration issue completely wrong. A lot of the affects of WWII would have never happened if the world had taken the time to understand what was actually happening instead of turning their head for so long.
