Epic fail. William D. Rubinstein's The Myth of Rescue debunks this myth:
  1. US immigration restrictions long predated FDR, being instituted and extended during the administrations of Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover–all of them Republicans
  2. Some of our stricter immigration policies that Nazi Germany was abusing against its own Jews were relaxed by FDR
  3. They were nothing special in the 20s and 30s, an era with increased restrictions on immigration
  4. The German quota, which included German Jews, was the second highest quota that we had back then
  5. The Jews of Nazi Germany by and large didn't want to emigrate until after Kristallnacht, and even when they did, the USA usually wasn't their first choice
  6. What evidence there is for German Jewish emigration to the USA supports this
  7. For German Jews, emigration was considered an individual choice, not a mass group decision
  8. 72% of Nazi Germany's Jews, 22% of Czech Jews, and 68.1% of Austrian Jews managed to escape
  9. When looked at in an international context, and in the context of restricted immigration in general, the world did a good job of rescue
  10. Nobody could foresee the Holocaust coming at the time
