As the title suggests, what would happen if Hitler decided to bring all Jews in Nazi controlled Europe into the middle east? What would happen to the political situation in England? US? Would the Brits let it happen? Would the Jews be happy?
There were less than 2 million people living in Palestine in the early 1940s. How would 6+ million Jews be housed and fed?
Well my first question would have to be how on earth would he transport them? A very close second being how they would be able to survive since it would put massive strain, if not outright wreck, the local water and food sources that weren't as heavily developed as the modern state.As the title suggests, what would happen if Hitler decided to bring all Jews in Nazi controlled Europe into the Middle East?
Considering that they refused post-war when the Jewish holocaust was widely known about, going so far as to run military patrols and intern attempted immigrants in Cyprus, I'd say definitely not. The British can simply refuse it as a German tactic to try and make them use resources supporting this influx of people.Would the Brits let it happen?
High enough.Well, it is Hitler, so I'd think the first thing to determine is, "From what altitude?".
At which point they reach Iraq - and after mid-1941 Syria, or possibly even before then - and are refused entry. The Turks, no doubt expecting this, or possibly having been forewarned by the British, use this as an excuse to decline to cooperate with Germany.A more plausible TL could be increasing the number of Jews migrating to Palestine via neutral Turkey.
He'd rather kill them.Well, it is Hitler, so I'd think the first thing to determine is, "From what altitude?".
Would it work if Hitler offered the Jews Palestine in lieu of fighting the British off? He can claim that the British are denying them their promised land and all the jazz.
USA can't provide that much assistance, since they are still recovering from the Great Depression.
