A German foundation has said it will no longer be awarding a prize for political thinking to a leading Russian-American journalist after criticizing as “unacceptable” a recent essay by the writer in which they made a comparison between Gaza and a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe.
Do you have a source for that? I tried searching but didn’t seem to find what you’re referring to.
I think they’re talking about American Nazi party involvement in the 1930’s (sources in the comment below the question) at the time leading up to America’s involvement, not necessarily official American foreign policy.
it’s certainly an interesting revisionist question (i.e. if America had been on the axis side of the war), but it’s definitely a-historical.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/America_First_Committee is about all I can find in a few minutes.
Apologies, for not having more or better.
That talks about a group of around 800,000 in a population of over 132,000,000. That’s not exactly “the US”.
