Bernadotte did not deserve any credit for saving jews either.

Obviously you are in total disagreement with the Israel official opinion of that. Approx. 11,000 of the 47,000 Nazi prisoners saved by Folke Bernadotte during WWII were Jews. Maybe not enough for you while worth a totally different take on this by official Israel.

Once again:

Israel Line - a daily summary of the Israeli Press 1995:
Israel paid tribute Sunday to Sweden for its efforts in saving thousands of Jews during World War II, YEDIOT AHARONOT reported.

In a ceremony at the Tel Aviv Museum entitled "Back to Life," special attention was paid to Sweden's Count Folke Bernadotte for his efforts in saving thousands of Jews. After the war, Bernadotte was assassinated during a visit to Jerusalem.

Speaking at the ceremony, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said he was deeply saddened by the assassination of Count Bernadotte and, on behalf of the Government, denounced the action.
