Oh. So, if Roosevelt and Churchill had agreed to the very humane Nazi offer to ship all the Jews out of Europe -- to Madagascar? -- everything would have been hunky-dory?
The Allies had to work hard to keep Hitler going until they could put their army in place? That was the whole point of WW II?
This is certainly a very interesting alternative history of the war. (Rather anti-Semitic in flavor, but ...) Might I inquire if you have any actual evidence for all of this?
