Pope Pius XII did more than any individual, country or organization to try to protect the Jews from Nazi atrocities. He did publicly denounce the Nazis but quickly found that the more he publicly denounced them, the more they increased their atrocities. He chose to continue his work is the shadows.
However, many western governments, the United States included, chose to remain silent about the situation and became, in a way, complicit in the Holocaust by their conspiracy of silence.
No he would never do such a thing.
It sounds as if you are thinking of the Sonderkommandosor 'special squads' that were forced to move corpses from the gas chambers to to the crematoria.
Italy and Germany sent aid to Franco in the Spanish Civil War in the 1930's. Germany tested its air-force there as well. Franco was a fascist and he fought the left, including communists.
German citizens who were first class citizens were given aid of food, shelter and jobs. The Jews had been made second class citizens and they had their businesses, homes, funds taken from them. Then they were sent to ghettos and concentration camps.
Britain and France
Military and Economic aid from Germany and Italy.

America did not send financial aid to Germany during WWI because America fought against Germany. America only sent Financial aid to her allies, i.e. Britain and France.
After World War I the US was split about the Woodrow Wilson giving aid to Germany. Shortly after giving aid to Germany, the Great Depression began.
In the 1930s "The world" was far too preoccupied with its own problems to come to the aid of others ... In the 1940s most other countries were already fighting againt Germany and the other Axis countries ... Please see the related question, too.
those who knew what was happening did NOTHING to try to halt the extermination and a small percentage did try to aid Jews in escape or offered hiding ......___"Doing something" that involves opposing the government is vastly hardly in a totalitarian dictatorship than in a democracy. As for helping the extermination process there were several degrees of collaboration. The number of people actually involved in killing was small.However, there were the railways, which transported the victims to the camps. In Germany there were the clergymen, who had obediently filled out certificates of baptism for the vast majority, who had four grandparents baptised as infants ... The list of people who contributed in some way is very long.
