Plus ça change, plus c’est le même chose
Captain Harry Butcher served as General Eisenhower's naval aide from July 1942 until the war's end. He also served for a period in SHAEF's public relations department. In 1946 Butcher published
My Three Years with Eisenhower. The book is made up of Butcher's official military diary during the entire period. Although quite long at nearly 900 pages it provides fascinating insights into Eisenhower's strategy.
The book also provides many interesting asides and tidbits, such as this one of December 10, 1942:
[Robert] Murphy and [Julius] Holmes had been sent by Ike to perk up [French Admiral Francois] Darlen on his liberalization of Nazi-inspired decrees in the form of a new ordinance, which is supposedly being rewritten. Darlen had shown Murphy and Holmes a letter from a rabbi in Constantine, urging that reform of the hard and unjust laws against the Jews in Africa be modified slowly. If done too rapidly, the rabbi reared reprisals against Jews by Arabs. Ike had heard from London that it would be helpful to have the revised ordinance there before the secret debate re Darlen comes up in the Commons Thursday ... What tickled me was the shuttling between the two groups: in one we were liberating the Jews, at least as far as the Moslems would permit; in the other, General Patton was figuratively racing through Spanish Morocco like a gay caballero on the back of a tank. [Page, 219-20]
It appears that the Arabs supported the Nazi inspired laws aimed at oppressing the Jews of North Africa. I wonder how the usual apologists will blame this on Israel.

The Holocaust Wasn't A Secret In 1942
It isn't that the West didn't know about the Holocaust; it is that it chose to ignore it. Here is an article in the Palestine Post from November 26, 1942 that was quite detailed as to what was happening to Jews in Poland, before the bulk of Jews...

The Nie Report - America Ignoring The Holocaust All Over Again
