Question

Which of the following was NOT a time Jewish people were saved by other nations? Poland created ghettos for Polish Jews to live in and hide safely from the Nazis. Common people from Warsaw hid Jews in their homes. Clergymen in France saved children by smuggling them into Switzerland and Spain. The zoo director of the Warsaw Zoo helped by hiding Jewish people in the zoo.

Answer 1

The creation of ghettos in Poland by the Nazis, such as the Warsaw Ghetto, was not an instance of Jewish people being saved but rather part of their systematic persecution. True acts of rescue included Irena Sendler smuggling Jewish children and Raoul Wallenberg's efforts to save Hungarian Jews.

Step-by-step explanation:

The instance that was NOT a time when Jewish people were saved by other nations is: "Poland created ghettos for Polish Jews to live in and hide safely from the Nazis." This statement is not accurate because the ghettos, such as the Warsaw Ghetto, were not safe havens but rather oppressive and overcrowded areas established by the Nazis where Jewish people were forcibly confined. The conditions in these ghettos led to severe suffering and many deaths due to starvation and disease. In reality, the ghettos were part of the systematic persecution and eventual extermination plan that the Nazis employed against the Jews. Examples of actual rescue and assistance include Irena Sendler smuggling children out of the Warsaw Ghetto, the zoo director of the Warsaw Zoo hiding Jews, and Raoul Wallenberg providing Swedish passports and establishing safe houses for Hungarian Jews.
