As a result of the propaganda carried out by the committee, it can be argued that the will to fight of the soldiers of the Allied States was tried to increase against the German army.

Özet

İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında ABD’deki Yahudi diasporası, Avrupa’da baskıcı politikalara maruz kalan Yahudilere yönelik ABD kamuoyunun dikkatini çekmeye çalışmıştır. Bu amaçla ABD’deki Yahudi diasporası tarafından 1943 yılında kurulan Avrupa Yahudi Halkını Kurtarmaya Yönelik Acil Durum Komitesi (The Emergency Committee to Save the Jewish People of Europe) Avrupa’daki Yahudilere yönelik farkındalık oluşturulması amacıyla propaganda pulları hazırlamıştır. Çalışmada komite bağlamında İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında ABD’deki Yahudi diasporasının, Avrupa’daki Yahudi diasporasına yönelik söylemlerinin ortaya konulmasına çalışmıştır. Bu amaçla komite tarafından hazırlanan propaganda pulları, göstergebilim yöntemi üzerinden analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgularda pullar üzerinden Nazi Almanya’sının işgali altında Yahudi diasporasının baskıya maruz kaldığına vurgu yapılarak, kamuoyunda hüzün duygusu oluşturulmaya çalışıldığı ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Komitenin gerçekleştirdiği propaganda sonucunda Müttefik Devletleri’nin askerlerinin Alman ordusuna karşı savaşma isteğinin arttırılmaya çalışıldığı ileri sürülebilmektedir.
