The Kennedy
Plan
[A play] |
 |
Jensen J.Arthur
2019 |
In this play of historical fiction,
J.Arthur Jensen presents the story of Joseph Kennedy's service as
Ambassador to England prior to and during the early months of World War
II. This dramatization illustrates that negotiation rather than military
conflict might have been used to address the Nazi threat.
In 1938, with tensions rising in Europe, President Franklin
Roosevelt appointed Joseph P. Kennedy to be the United States Ambassador
to the Court of St. James with instructions to support efforts to maintain
the peace. Kennedy learned that much of the political tension was rooted
in Nazi anger over the Treaty of Versailles-- the treaty which twenty
years earlier had concluded the Great War. After he assessed the political
choices, Kennedy supported Prime Minister Chamberlain's effort to maintain
European peace by allowing the re-unification of the German people of the
Sudetenland with Nazi Germany but he realized that the key to long term
European peace was to create a mechanism for legal migration of Jews out
of Germany. Kennedy lobbied for a plan which had been previously explored
by British and American diplomats: allow Jewish migration to multiple
different countries. Christened "the Kennedy Plan" by the press, the plan
quickly brought condemnation from non-Jews who did not want new Jewish
immigration and from Jews who favored only immigration to Palestine. As
Hitler demonstrated the power of his new Luftwaffe and German Panzers,
Kennedy urged negotiation and compromise. Voices to maintain peace were
overwhelmed by voices for war and we are left to wonder if the Nazi threat
was handled properly by the governments of the west. Might negotiation
have avoided the massive loss of life that resulted from the Second World
War? |
