History / "Poland's Concentration Camp" ?? [570]


Thank you I love to read. I don't know what happened to you Harry, going over your posts you seemed to be such a sweet person. Now all you want to do is go from post to post hurting.

I don't know whats going on in your life but your anti Polish is taking place in the wrong rooms.

"Soviet" run as in "Communist Poland". I think you can see quite a differance since 1989. I also feel it's important to say there are many still in power today that were placed there under communism. It takes time for change but believe me Harry, Poland being betrayed and lose of power made Poland a country that was run by the very person that killed off Polish military and citizens. Siberia was not a vacation destination. If you think "Hitler" was bad do some research on "Stalin".

Harry, I think what you mean to say is "Soviet run Poland". If you recall "Stalin" was running the show, not the Polish.

INAPPROPRIATE TERMINOLOGY

I APPRECIATE the fact that The AJN informs readers about the XVII March of the Living which will take place on May 1 this year (AJN 25/04). Participants in the March will proceed from Auschwitz I to Auschwitz II-Birkenau in order to dignify the memory of victims of the Holocaust.

The ceremony is part of an international educational project in Auschwitz, which will be held in Poland and in Israel from April 28-May 11.

At the same time, I wish to firmly protest the terminology "Nazi-Polish concentration camps" used in the article. I want to believe that it was simply an unfortunate mistake made by the reporter, yet a mistake so insulting and painful to Poles and the Polish community in Australia.

All the more painful because this mistake is often repeated in the Australian mass media, which is an insult to the Polish Diaspora and which serves poorly in revealing in Australia the truth about German-Nazi concentration camps.

Using such terminology also reveals a lack of rudimentary knowledge of the history of World War II, which absolutely should not take place in such a respectable and opinion-shaping newspaper as The Australian Jewish News.

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

This is so sad. Children are being educated in Israel that Poland, not "occupied" Poland was in control. I say it's time Poland starts setting the "Nation" straight.

After all that our families went through to have blame placed on the ones that lost the most is beyond words. After all it was Poland's people that were attacked in 1939, not "Jewish".

Did you even read what the artical was about? If you knew history at all you would know that Polands people were the victim's reguardless of who they prayed to. Thank you for pointing me in the direction of where this anti-Polish stems from.

Just in case you are not aware the question in this is "Polish hatred towards Jews" not "Jewish hatred towards Polish"

Some from eastern Poland said it was the other way around, 1939-40 this was due to the Jewish helping Soviets and Ukrainian in removal of Polish from the east to cattle cars. Yet prior to this intervention they lived side by side respecting each others rights and being close friends and neighbors.

And to this day very few women can or will speak out as to the crimes. I feel it's Polish pride that they feel they must not speak or after so many years they simply can't.

Poland wants Holocaust property restitution law by end of year

Jerusalem Post, Israel - 2 hours ago
Moreover, many of the areas populated by Jews ahead of WWII - the so-called Galicia region - are now located outside the boundaries of present-day Poland ...

After years of delay, the Polish government aims to complete the issue of Holocaust property restitution by the end of the year, Polish Ambassador to Israel Agnieszka Magdziak-Miszewska said Sunday.

The core of a bill, which was accepted by the Polish parliament in draft form two years ago, is ready, and the Polish government hopes to reach a resolution by the end of the year, she said in a briefing with Israeli journalists.

German's or Russian's that have yet to take responsabily, like Ukraine. You cannot think just ignoring historical responsability has a time limit? We lost more than land, we lost family and we will never forget our family. As far as forgive, how do you forgive when the one's you need to forgive ignor? I guess when they can say they are sorry and be responsable we can begin to heal.

Thank you for the beautiful pictures, to some of us this will always be Poland.

Life / Drinking games in Poland [44]

In the US a big game is beer pong. Played with plastic cups lined up like pin's in a bowling alley, using a ping pong ball you have to try to get the ball from across a table into one of the cups. If you do they have to drink the cup. The first team to clear out the other teams cups wins.

ANTI-SEMITISM, including government-promoted hatred toward Jews and prejudice couched as criticism of Israel, has risen globally over the last decade, the State Department said.

"Today, more than 60 years after the Holocaust, anti-Semitism is not just a fact of history, it is a current event," it said in a report to Congress.

US embassies have noted an increase in attacks on Jewish people, property, institutions, and religious facilities in the last decade, the report said.

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]


Poland and Polish were the ones to be killed by both Stalin and Hitler, Total numbers of Polish far surpassed the Jewish and yet how many times have you seen Polands other victims included in "Holocaust" or "Compensation". Why do they claim to be forgotten, when the truley forgotten is "Poland's non Jewish"?

Belgium in $170m Holocaust payout

Of the total restitution payout, $70m will come from the Belgian authorities, $85m from banks and most of the remainder from insurance companies.

Last year, Guy Verhofstadt, the country's prime minister, apologised for Belgian authorities' involvement in the deportation of Jews to the concentration camps.

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]


Instead of "nasty neighboring country's" invading, USA's had the neighbors living side by side. When you look at the history this has not always been easy. USA still hold onto their own roots also where we differ is how we view immigrants, many have been in their shoes and can relate.

Now Mexico, we are beefing up the boarder like never before. This was mostly due to them cleaning out the prison system on USA. When they send their serial killers, child molestors and the like here vs. feed them, it's time to cover the side line.

I have a Judas tree. It is the tree that Judas from the bible hung himself from after betraying Jesus 3 times. It is the most beautiful tree. In the spring it has little tiny purple buds and they even come out on the trunk, the leaves are shapped like hearts. This tree is stunning.

Maybe it's because we have just started to explore "openly"our past. When we take just the magnitude of "Katyn", 22,000 + military being unarmed, shot with hands tied behind their head, where in history has there bee such a war crime on military and yet no one held accountable. This started before the Sept. 1, 1939 date and was a massacre of our military. Then for the people to be told by Communist Poland, do not speak of this, was nothing but cover up. Today 2008 President Putin still tries to change history. On this link we speak of Israelis, but it is more. Polish were to exterminated, not Jewish. We must bring to light all of the victims.

From whom are you referring? I believe the eastern Poland land was given by Russia in 1920. Not that they should have to keep there word, mind you.
