How+sucsessful+were+most+of+the+Gentiles+efforts?

The Gentiles were, for the most part, extremely successful in their efforts to help the Jews. They saved hundreds of thousands of people in their combined efforts. Unfortunantly there are no estimations to how many people were saved because no one really kept track of totals just individual numbers. But if I had to guess i would bet the total would come close to a million. Which is just incredible!

There were some gentiles who saved only a few people by doing simple things like giving food or medical to passing Jews. And there were some that saved 10s of thousands of people with their own personal efforts! [|Individual efforts] The polish were the most successful this was probably because they had a few organized groups that were founded specifically to help the victims of the holocaust that saved extremely large amounts of people during the holocaust [|Power of Poland] and they had the most gentiles of any country in the entire world.[|Statistics] I think that the reason that the efforts of the Gentiles were so successful was because they knew that they were doing something good, something that would save lives.

There were many successful efforts by the Gentiles, i think there were probably close to just as many unsuccessful attempts but they were not recored if they were not successful because they did not matter at the time. Because if the SS found out that someone was making an effort to help Jews they would quickly come and kill them or take them away, so i think that there are probably many gentiles who's work was never recognized because they were killed by the SS and no one noticed. It would be nice to know about the attempts that did not succeed so that I could come to a conclusion to the Question at hand but unfortunantly I do not. So i cannot compare the two sides, which leaves me the only conclusion (which i do believe to be true) that the Gentiles efforts were for the most part all very succsesful.

I know that this answer is mainly just my opinion and i apologize but there is not much that i can put here (besides numbers) that is not better suited to answer another of the questions. I think that one cannot even put into words how succsesful the Gentiles efforts were. Without the Gentiles and their quiet resistance to the Nazis, the war could have been very different and the death toll extremely larger.
