Key reasons include these:
- 'The world' was at war; communications were severely disrupted and movement was restricted. There was no question of sending in observers to find out 'what was really going on'.
- At first the British and U.S. governments were skeptical about the reports of genocide that they received.
- The Holocaust took place in areas that were largely inaccessible to the Allies, for example, in Nazi occupied Poland.
- The Allies' overriding objective was to win the war, and intervening to stop the Holocaust or other atrocities was seen as a distraction.
In other words, I don't any theory is need to explain the Allies' position on this.
