Answer:

D: "Sixty years ago, its human cargo - nearly 1,000 Jews - was turned back to Nazi Germany." (Paragraph 16)"

Explanation:

The U.S. was indifferent to the situation of Jews in Nazi Germany turning them back like that.

Wiesel shows the indifference of nations to the Jewish people during World War II, when he shows the number of Jews who tried to immigrate to other countries and were returned to Nazi Germany.

This case is presented in option D, which is the correct answer.

In his speech, Elie Wiesel shows that although Germany is the main culprit for the massacre that occurred to the Jewish people during World War II, other nations cannot feel innocent, as they knew what was happening and acted with indifference.

To show how terrible the indifference was for the Jewish people, Wiesel presents what happened to the ship called St. Louis, which tried to dock in the USA carrying a large number of German Jewish refugees.

About this episode, Wiesel states that:

  • St. Louis left Germany loaded with Jews who were trying to save themselves from the problems they were facing in Nazi Germany.
  • The situation of the Jews was precarious and they were being tortured, killed and exploited.
  • The ship left for the USA.
  • The whole world knew about what was happening to the Jews in Germany.
  • Upon arriving in the USA, St. Louis was prevented from docking and Jews could not enter the country.
  • No country authorized the disembarkation of Jews and everyone acted as if nothing was happening.
  • St. Louis was forced to return to Germany and deliver the Jews to a cruel and dire fate.

With this, we can conclude that Wiesel reinforced that all nations were to blame for the massacre of the Jewish people and helped Nazi Germany to maintain its plan of eugenics and torture.
