Excerpts from book, One of Humanity's Darkest Days, the Truth about the Holocaust
Chapter 3 explores the significant role of Jews in World War I, both on the battlefields and the home front. It highlights their extensive participation in various armies, including the German army where over 100,000 Jews served, debunking myths about their lack of involvement. The chapter discusses figures like Isaac Rosenberg and Siegfried Sassoon, Jewish soldiers who made notable contributions. It also examines the 1916 Judenzählung, a census conducted in Germany to count Jewish soldiers and counter false claims about their non-participation, although the results were manipulated for antisemitic purposes. The chapter also emphasizes Jewish contributions on the home front, such as medical, logistical, and fundraising efforts, including the formation of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee to aid war-affected Jews
