Summary:The World Jewish Congress first came into being in 1936. Its main task was to combat German anti-Semitism as the Reich progressively extended its annexations (Austria, Czech Republic) and then engaged in further conquests (Poland). Being particularly well informed, the World Jewish Congress not only pursued a policy of spreading information, notably through the channels of the SDN but it also attempted to save the Jewish communities caught in a stranglehold, as apparent especially in Poland in 1940. Whilst the efforts made by the World Jewish Congress cannot be placed in doubt, the results of its activities remain somewhat less convincing. This weakness is a cruel illustration of the pathos so often present within the myth of ‘Jewish power'.
