News / THOUSANDS OF YOUNG ISRAELIS FLOODING POLAND [93]

As someone who grew up in America I can say that there are a few reasons for this

A) REALLY bad/faulty history books and poor teaching in general in schools. There are countless instances in America's own history that are skewed and not til high school or even worse college, do you get the complete story of what happened.

In schools it is taught that Hitler wanted the extermination of Jews, which is correct but they fail to explain just how evil of a mind Hitler possessed. It didn't start or end with Jews, he was going to exterminate EVERYONE and anyone left would be used as slaves. Not permitted to speak there native tongue, re produce - basically the slow death of an entire race/culture.

By ONLY mentioning Jews they aren't being fair to the millions of Slavs, intellects, homosexuals, handicapped and so on that perished. They almost have you thinking that as long as you weren't Jewish you would be spared. Which is obviously complete ********.

Last I checked there was no such thing as a Jewishland or Israel in Europe, so obviously these Jews were part of a nation. So why is there no mention of the 6 million Poles that died in the Holocaust? That's the main question

Why isn't there more of a mention of the Jews being Poles or the fact that 6 Million Poles died in the Holocaust? By not pointing this out - people are then left to think that Poles were somehow involved with the Germans and that's why I think your seeing this ignorant view by Israeli and American youth. Basically the Western world

B) Your foolish if you think American-Jews/Israeli-Jews haven't specifically tried to keep Polish deaths in the Holocaust as a side note. The "were the only victims, look at us" has helped enable them the national state in Palestine. People feel so bad for Jews that they are willing to turn there cheek for anything Jews do these days. In example the Gaza conflict just 5 months ago. I have read and watched Israeli's speak out themselves comparing the Gaza to the Warsaw Ghetto during WW2. The world is more willing to let Israel perform the same actions Nazi Germany did because of the Holocaust.

C) In the Western World Polands involvement in the war is nothing more than being attacked by Germany, handing over there Jews, while also committing there own crimes against Jews and then permitting Germans to build concentration camps on there land while they sat around. It is so ridiculous that if you even attempt to enlighten the ignorant you'll have the hilarious "ANTI-SEMITIC" label thrown at you. Semitic describes a large ranging group including Palestinians, and many other Arabs. It's just yet another example of how Jews have even created there own personal term to describe negative things said about them. As if Anti-Jew isn't good enough.

Consider for a second who is the most famous Holocaust victim. No she's not a Pole, not a Russian, not even a German.....she's actually French. Anne Frank. Of all the people that would be the image of the suffering and death of the Holocaust, it's a French girl.

As a Pole myself, yes I feel we have been wronged by Jews when it comes to the Holocaust. Like stated earlier in this thread, were not talking about European Jews here, these are either American-Jews or Israeli born Jews. They have nothing but bitterness and a downright ignorant view of really happened. The Jews have and will continue to until everyone puts a stop to it - a never ending excuse and sense of entitlement with everything they do because of the Holocaust. Poland is a struggling nation that is STILL rebuilding from the war and to have people fly over here that have absolutely no connection to this land and try to claim and take something away from us is downright disgusting. The last thing I'm about to let happen is Poland turn into another Palestine. We'll give back the land right about the time America gives theres back to Mexico.

the film 'The Pianist' a great example of what was going on during that time. Jews were ratting out and selling each other out in the Warsaw Ghetto. So yeah I'm sure you can find some bad apples that did indeed harm jews or inform the Germans of there where abouts, but to focus on that is very irresponsible. I GUARANTEE you can find MANY MANY more examples of Poles not just helping Jews survive but also costing there own lives in the process.

This kind of behavior has sprung a whole new generation of ignorant people, and your seeing with this kind of behavior when they visit Poland.
