supposedly the land of security, offered little aid to European Jews during a
time of great crisis and need. He
proves throughout, that America
was too passive in its actions and beliefs.

describes the american foreign policy from the
turn of the century, through the First World War, the Isolationist Policy, the
Second World War, through post-Cold War issues. The author remains detached and
tries to focus on stating the facts of American foreign policy in order to examine
it objectively. For my subject, I
particularly utilized sources on American foreign policy from 1920-1941.
Reasons are stated and the aftermath of World War I is discussed, as well
as the Isolationist Policy of the 1930’s.
The events leading directly up to World War II and American’s entrance
into the war are also portrayed. http://www.questia.com/Index.jsp?CRID-america_isolationism&OFFID-se1This
site provides articles and information relative to the American Isolationist Policy
which was adopted after the First World War and carried through the time of the
Holocaust and up until the bombing of Pearl Harbor. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex_holocaust/Sponsored
