Jewish Influence Created a ProSoviet American Opinion Ginsberg


How the Jews Defeated Hitler: Exploding the Myth of Jewish Passivity in the Face of Nazism, by Benjamin Ginsberg. 2013

Jewish Influence Played a Major Role in Re-Shaping American Public Opinion in a Pro-Soviet Direction–and Moreover BEFORE Pearl Harbor. The Yalta Sellout of Poland Was a Consequence

A notable chapter in this book deals with Jewish influence in the USA (notably the media and entertainment industry), and its role in shaping American public opinion in support of the entry of the USA into the war on the side of the USSR. According to surveys of American public opinion, only 35% of respondents favored aid to the USSR, while 54% were opposed. That was in June 1941.

Why so? Americans generally understood Communism as opposed to religion and the church. In addition, many Americans saw little difference between the totalitarian systems of Nazism and Communism.

THE SEA CHANGE IN AMERICAN PUBLIC OPINION

Thanks to energetic work of the FFF (Fight for Freedom), American public opinion underwent a turnaround in only several months. By November 1941, 51% of surveyed American respondents favored aid to the Soviet Union, and only 13% were opposed. (p. 52). Note that this was BEFORE Pearl Harbor.

HARMFUL LONG-TERM EFFECTS ON POLAND AND OTHER CAPTIVE NATIONS

Of course, this turnaround of opinion had other implications. A more favorable American view of the Soviet Union facilitated the later Churchill-Roosevelt betrayal of Poland at Teheran and Yalta, leading to the enslavement of eastern Europe by the Soviet-imposed Communist puppet states.
