most of the nazi crimes are ignored or even justified in the west as well. seemingly, only the jews are considered human enough to deserve empathy.

    IIRC a book I read by Holocaust historian Donald Bloxham, most Americans had neutral, positive, or no views at all of the nazis for most of the 50s and 60s. It seems a lot of people hadn't even heard the term used until the schmaltzy TV drama "Holocaust" aired in 1978.
