I condemned any wrongdoings during 1920-1939 on the part of polish government and I wont repeat myself,
You did? Hmm, where?
as you're still clinging to the idea that massacres in Wolyn wasn't fault of the Ukrainians
Are all Ukrainians to blame? The highest number of UPA was about 30.000 soldiers.
I know that similar view are held in what is now called wester Ukraine, in the center or east Ukrainians have different opinions at the issue.
You see, you have noticed it by yourself.
The millions expelled and killed during the forced marches! (12 millions of them being Germans)
Don't tell me you never heard of the being build center against expellations and the whole bruhaha with Poland?
You mix details. The number 12 million doesn`t refer to Germans from Poland only, but from all Eastern territories. Next, from 12 million we must extract a few millions of Germans who fled their areas during the war, on German military authorities` orders, to avoid contact with the Red Army. It was then when they marched in harsh winter conditions and hundred thousands died on the road, in bombed Drezno or on sunk ships. You don`t want to blame Poles for that?
The real expulsion took place after the war, comprised about 3 million Germans from the Polish territory and they were transported by trains under Polish authorities` control.
So there is self criticism in Poland???
Yes. Can`t you see it in this thread?
Besides, Poles were already self-critical when Nazi criminals were still prosecuted in the world.
Do you know that in 1966 Polish bishops issued an appeal to Germans ones: We forgive and beg for forgiveness???
It was one of the first attempts at reconciliation after the tragedies of the Second World War, in which Germany invaded Poland; Poland and Germany lost millions of people, while millions more, both Poles and Germans, had to flee from their homes or were forcibly resettled.I concur there is nothing better like good ethnic cleansing.
Nice view. Thank you.
I have nothing agains Ukraine being independent country. I just want to notice that they are not Polish protectorate ... they governthemsleves ... but I would be very carful with them.
Who talks about protectorate? Lending a hand here and there and close partnership isn`t protectorate.
