there was a major traveling show with entertainers selling out madison square garden talking about the fact that germans were massacring these jews. i think that is one of the biggest policies that we did not know. we knew, americans knew, just did not believe. alexandra: and i think that from my perspective, working on this subject from here in central europe, one of the things that always strikes me is when i was growing up learning about this first, we tended to think the anne frank story or german jews trying to deal with the consequences of the nuremberg law or whatever, but in fact, less than 1% of the jewish victims of the holocaust were germans. most of the victims are killed, murdered in poland, russia, the baltic states, and ukraine into the soviet union and russia. the horror of what happened in eastern and central europe, the violence is very little really understood still, which is why it is so important to have more and more research and more and more people coming out trying to figure out what exactly did happen out here. that is one of the myths i think. because of the
