Marku, your query is specious, since this argument is not unlike African-Americans, who, as descendents of slaves etc.., once picketed the Obama White House, requesting for "compensation" for their being enslaved, or, Native-Americans similarly demanding land back to their respective tribes (including parts of Long Island), since this was, after all, THEIR territory which WE stole from THEM!!
Obviously, no self-respecting person, Jew or gentile, is expecting the present Polish government to compensate Jews expelled under the Nazis at an increased rate of interest. Such as thing is clearly ludicrous. The point about property compensation though, does begin to make sense when one stops and considers the manner under which that property was Aryanized, not ONLY in Poland, but throughout occupied Europe.
