However, this pragmatic cooperation was short-lived. As Nazi racial policies radicalized, any notion of "negotiation" between them and the Zionists faded. One fringe Zionist group, Lehi (Stern Gang), controversially sought contact with Axis powers during World War II, but these overtures were rejected. Ultimately, any early cooperation was driven by desperation, not shared ideology, and ended with the horrors of the death camps.
