Titanic was already very well known before the war. I doubt that she would lose any of her fame/infamy.

So what is the state of Judaism in the ITTL Present Day?
In the places where Jewish communities survived (America, England, North Africa, Argentina the Palestinian repatriates who went to Poland and Russia) has there been a renaissance of Jewish learning by Jews who want to honor their European cousins who were exterminated, or has Jewish religion and culture been in terminal decline in these areas?

Also, does the Arab world still have significant Jewish communities, as it was never occupied by the Nazis and as there was no Nakba to fuel antisemitism there?
In many Arab countries there was significant antisemitism and Jews were definitely second class citizens. Surprisingly Iran was one of those countries (although not Arab although Muslim) where this was less the case. The total Jewish population in North Africa, various Arab countries, and Iran was probably around 800,000-1,000,000 in 1940. It is worth noting that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem spent much of the war in Germany and was quite pro-Nazi, including "plans" for the Jews.
@CalBear Whats the historical reputation of Joseph P. Kennedy Sr.? Given that (presumably) his son is seen as equivalent to FDR (actually, side question: what's FDR and Truman's rep like?), "The President who defeated the Reich" and all that, is his father's fairly vocal support for the Reich (at least early on) something of an "old shame"?
The Jewish population in French North Africa might be safe, especially after the Vichy administrators have been evicted.
IIRC there are significant minority Jewish populations in the Levant and the Middle East, but they're still minorities. There were mentions of old men and young boys in Palestine trying to sign up for the British Army, and Israel never got off the ground ITTL because the Jewish population of Palestine was only something like 30% (and so they couldn't vote for self-determination post-war).
Well, he is the Father to TWO POTUS (Joe Jr. and RFK) both of whom were two term residents of the White House, Joe beat the Nazis, RFK was the great tax cutter (down below 80%!) so his rep is pretty solid.

BS USA and Germany alleging is impossible due to their difference in policy, it is impossible to defeat Russia, no one has ever totally defeated Russia, you are likely to to go and search it. But what you will find is BS, and beside America was not ready for the war, if Germans deployed one battalion in USA it would have lost.
How will the 1938 Polish annexation of Zaolzie in Czechoslovakia be seen in this scenario?
