What can you say about the 2nd World War? Are you sure you know enough? Why do I ask? My grandfathers experienced the war themselves. Think and learn before you judge.
There’s been this vivid discussion going on lately in Poland and it’s all about the latest Act on Institute of National Remembrance saying that the statement ‘Polish death camps’ will be punished and it doesn’t matter if used by Poles or foreigners. What is so annoying about that?
In the time of the 2nd WW Great Britain and United States didn’t respond to Polish cry for help to stop the Nazi murder. Now Jews and Americans accuse Polish of the participation in the murder of Jews in the 2nd World War. What is the truth? Let me introduce you to the brief history:
Following „Społeczność żydowska PRL przed kampanią antysemicką lat 1967 – 1968 i po niej” (2009) [Jew community in PRL – the Polish People’s Republic – before the antisemite campaign between 1967 – 1968 and after.] in the first half of the 18th century there was a strong percentage – 33% – of the worldwide Jewish community in Poland. Jews in Poland had as many rights as Polish citizens and they even established a number of Jewish culture promotion centres.
As you may know, in the 18th century Poland experienced three partitions. The first one was the partition between Russia, Prussia and Austria in 1772; the second one between Russia and Prussia in 1793; the third one between Austria, Prussia and Russia n 1795. You don’t like history and statistics, do you? Definitely media doesn’t like it. Why do I introduce you all the facts? Jews in the Middle and East Europe didn’t want to assimilate with the European nations, also in Poland in the time of partitions. Only Jews who lived on the territories of prussian annexation adopted the German culture.
In the 19th century, russian Jews joined Polish socialists as they didn’t manage to live in harmony with russian society. Józef Piłsudski thought about the collaboration with Jews to bring the socialist revolution – no classes in society.
Before the 2nd World War in the 2nd Polish Republic there were 3.500.000 Jews in Poland so it was the biggest Jewish community in Europe.
What was the reason for Polish dislike twards Jews? In 1922 Jews together with Germans, Ukrainians and Belarussians decided to put up own electoral register (Blok Mniejszości Narodowych – Bloc of National Minorities) to take over the ruling in Poland.
Jews were protected by the Sanation movement launched by Piłsudski and after his death antisemite movements grew into force. However, the great number of Jews remained in Poland as it was still the best European place to live for Jews.
In 1939 Adolf Hitler entered Poland (he hated Jews and at the same time had Jewish origins, a fun fact). Jews from Middle and East Europe were sent to Nazi Germany concentration camps in Poland and Germany.
Adolf Hitler had a plan and I see that even nowadays his plan works. If you state that Poland is responsible for the shit that happend on the command of Hitler you are just a pure ignorant and a little Nazi in the 21st century. You see single cases when Poles didn’t want to secure Jews but you don’t see hundreds of deaths which were the result of hiding Jews.
Israel, you may now put Jewish ruling in America and wherever you want. You won’t succeed to put Jewish ruling in Poland! You rule in Isreal and that’s your place for Jewish ruling. Our law doesn’t change anything, it is just a written statement that calling death camps to be a Polish invention will be punished. Is it inferiority complex?
Jews, get a life and let us all live in peace. You won’t change the history. Would you be so brave now to show us all the Jewish children saved by Poles? Come on! You wanted my grandfathers to save your life but if there was a chance to sell the life of a Polish citizen you didn’t say ‘no’. Face the truth. Bad and good people are everywhere but those concentration camps were Nazis. Nazi movement were against Poland. What’s your problem?
