For example, after all the holocaust hype of the last twenty years,
who remembers that Jews accounted for just one-fifth of those liberated
from concentration camps in Germany by American troops? (While camps in
the East were almost all Jewish, these were either closed by the time the
Allies arrived, or were liberated by the Russians.) Yet by now American
photographs are invariably associated with Jewish suffering exclusively,
even though it didn't start out that way in 1945. And until late 1938
there were few Jews, as Jews, among those in the camps. They were filled
with Communists, socialists, trade unionists, and others opposed to Hitler.
It's not that the holocaust didn't happen; obviously it did. Novick is
simply uncomfortable with the fact that the holocaust has been unfairly
appropriated by American Jews as their exclusive preserve.
