none of this matters at all.
I'm not clueless about it at all. Maybe you're the one who's clueless. The US government was cautious during that time and it was something they were not used to dealing with. It's super easy to look back and be critical now, knowing all the facts.
Try putting things into context instead of taking the bits and pieces YOU deem "wrong". At the time there was little support by the public for being responsible to accept the refugees and knowledge of the Holocaust wasn't as widespread. When that changed policies started relaxing.
Again, context means something. Stop arguing dishonestly. The united States took in a lot of Jewish people, and yeah, they made some mistakes, but at the time it wasn't unreasonable for the US government to be cautious, with the information they had.
40% of all Jewish people on the planet live here. You think we maybe are welcoming towards them a little bit, in general, or nah?
