Nurenberger’s ‘The Scared and the Doomed,’ ” “During our people’s darkest hour, as Hitler’s war machine kicked into high gear, much of the Diaspora establishment eschewed collective action to save European Jewry. These cosmopolitan, assimilated Jews did not want to risk their hard-earned place in American society by speaking out of turn. They wanted to be a part of the prevailing culture, not disturb it.”"
