Many are familiar with Oskar Schindler, but there were others. See the
Jewish Virtual Library for some other "Rescuers" like Chiune and Yukiko
Sugihara, Khaled Abdelwahhab, Miep Gies who protected the Frank family,
and others whose moral courage is beyond question. Israel has named between 16 and 20 thousand persons as the "Righteous Few".
In Nazi occupied Europe, nobody could openly stand up for the Jews and protect them by force, because the Nazis would hunt them down. What people could do was covertly help and protect Jews. A few examples of these people are Oskar Schindler, who protected his Jewish workers in his factory, Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish diplomat who gave Jews passports and other documentation to give them access to safe countries, anf Frank Foley, a British MI6 agent who gave Jews British and Palestinian passports to allow them to escape.

Yes, at the time there were people that both spoke out against antisemitism and the persecution.
The Nazis, with in weeks of taking power, had complete control of the media and all resistance like this was fully and completely crushed or covered up so it gained no attention.
In ww2 there were several thousand individual Christians who helped Jews in many ways:hiding, obtaining documents, transport to safety, feeding, etc.
Of course. Not all Germans believed in the Nazi way. In fact, many of the Jews who were put to death were German themselves.
anyone who had to do with being or accepting Judaism, but towards the end of WW2 anyone could had suffered.
The U.S. president in 1942 was Franklin D. Roosevelt. However, as far as I'm aware, he received no request for help from "the Jews" or from any Jewish organization. American Jews were keen not to do anything that appeared to distract attention from the war effort.If this sounds unbelievable, check it out and try to find the Jewish organization and/or individuals that you think asked for help in 1942.
They were not expecting anyone to rescue them.
No Jews 'helped Hitler in elections'.
They don't try to 'convert' anyone. They try to interest them in religion.
No
yes, but it was a 'drop in the ocean' compared to those who didn't

there was a limited amount that anyone could do to help, this was one way that they could.

Jews do not represent anyone (except for themselves).
Of course. Not all Germans believed in the Nazi way. In fact, many of the Jews who were put to death were German themselves.

Jews live in homes just like anyone else.
they mostly avoided some of the people who had bad diseases or the germans killed them if the diseases were really severe.some jews tried to help the sicklier jews but that is one reason that diseases got spread.
