Joseph, which situation in Europe are you talking about? Assuming you mean the Holocaust, it’s true that the widespread, systematic extermination of Jews was unexpected. But Europe in general had a rich history of anti-Semitism & attacks against Jews, generally sanctioned by various governments which either participated actively or looked the other way. That’s simply not the case in this country. It’s not for nothing that many Gedolim call this a “medina shel chessed”.
