The Americans didn't hesitate to rescue Jews during World War 2. America was, at the time (according to historical accounts), unaware of the atrocities being committed by the Nazis against the Jews. Although there were rumors of the horrors from survivors and relatives of European Jews living abroad, it was only after landing on the beaches of France on June 6, 1944 and the subsequent march toward Berlin did the Allied forces discover the concentration camps.In other words the American didn't act sooner because they did not know what was going on.
