why's it so odd? we're talking about today, not yesteryear... but since you
bring it up, let's take a look...

 1. it happened 80 years ago; May 1939.
 2. the St. Louis was a German ship, not a USS military ship.
 3. the St. Louis landed in Havana, Cuba with 937 passengers.
 4. Cuba did not allow the passengers to disembark from the vessel.
 5. yes, the US and Canada were also unwilling to admit the passengers.
 6. a majority of the passengers had filed for US visas but had not received
them before sailing.
 7. they had hopes to stay in Cuba for a short time until their US visas came
through.
 8. yes, the US didn't allow them to land because they had not passed security
screening.
 9. many Americans did sympathize with the plight of those passengers.
10. they returned to Europe where some countries did admit a certain
percentage.
11. some of those did get a proper visa and came back to the US before the
German invasion in 1940.
12. 254 of those passengers were killed in the Holocaust, though.

did i miss anything?

And to this end they built themselves a stupendous super-computer which was
so amazingly intelligent that even before its data banks had been connected
up it had started from "I think therefore I am" and got as far as deducing
the existence of rice pudding and income tax before anyone managed to turn
it off.
