No Jews allowed! Latest anti-semitic outrage out of Poland

guesthousesign

The image says it all (for our American friends I'd better translate it: "Polish house Entry forbidden to Jews, Commies and all thieves and traitors of Poland").

The World Jewish Congress has said it is deeply disturbed by the Polish government's failure to act and remove an anti-Semitic banner hung on the gate of a guesthouse barring Jews from entering.

Stating "Entry forbidden to Jews, Commies and all thieves and traitors of Poland," the banner appeared on a guesthouse owned by Piotr Rybak in the south-west town Cesarzowice, near the city of Wrocław.

This scumbag has got a long list of form for racism, recently being sentenced to prison for burning an effigy of an orthodox Jew during a neo-Nazi rally in Wroclaw (or should that be Breslau, given the Nazi motifs of the rally). His criminal past is so bad that he's even banned from entering the UK!

I'm no fan of Rybak or his mate Miedlar, but this is old news - any reason you are writing about it now, other than to write another negative post about somebody who's Polish?

Its call trolling. Harry and DD are the masters at it.

DD`s anti Polish thread was sent to the bin yesterday and this thread should follow.

Care to go into detail about the latest developments? Perhaps you can tell us what charges have been brought against him? Let us know when he was arrested?

another negative post about somebody who's Polish?

He's Polish by accident and scumbag by choice. I have no problem at all with saying negative things about people who choose to be scumbags, regardless of their race. That's because I'm not racist, unlike certain people who will always defend people who are from the race they identify as being from or will attack anybody who says a bad word about any person who is from the race they identify as being from.

That's exactly what you are doing Harry, attacking anybody that has a bad word about the race you come from.
So I guess that does make you a racist by admission of self guilt.

(for our American friends I'd better translate it

No need Harry, we have google translate just like you used.
This is a trolling thread to invite negative banter only and should be deleted.

Why? You're the one who gave us a link to some news from last month. Why should I start researching whatever the latest update is - you're the one who seems to care about it so much.

He's Polish by accident and scumbag by choice.

I suppose that's why you titled this thread 'No Jews allowed! Latest anti-semitic outrage out of Poland,' and not something like 'WJC upset at lack of government reaction to Piotr Rybak's antisemitic banner.'

To moderators!

Moderators! You did not allow threads about Jews, especially critique of Jews, then how do you justify this latest thread criticising Poland by a Jew poster? So Jews can criticise Poland and Polish people on Polish forum but on same forum nobody, including Polish posters/members, is allowed to criticise the Jews? Cancel this thread or allow threads that criticise the Jews.

The outrage is that the sign was been up for months without any action at all being taken and it was only when the international press started to report it that the tiniest bit of action was taken.

Amusing to see the ad hom off-topic trolling by the usual suspects; I wonder why they fail to make any attempt to address the topic.

Administrator!

Cancel this trolling thread just like you cancelled all threads which do not shed a positive light on the Jews, otherwise you will again be seen as acting in favour of the Jews.

Prejudice is always rank and affects us all, from whichever side it rears its ugly head and to whomever its directed, be it the English example against Poles or this present instance of anti-Jewish hostility on the part of Polish gentiles. While feelings of rancor, even hate, are all too human, either their overt or even covert expression have no place in society, public discourse etc.

Prejudice is always rank

It is, but sadly some people defend it when it is aimed at those who are not them and especially when it is aimed at those who they dislike.

Personally I'd say the man in question would be fine with banning communists from his property (people choose to be communists and I personally would be more than happy to refuse to serve a Nazi) but for the way that his ilk bleat when they are denied things, such as entry to the UK, on the grounds of the political choices they make.

nobody, including Polish posters/members, is allowed to criticise the Jews

If you were forbidden from criticising Jews, I'd speak out in support of you. But you are perfectly free to criticise Jews, just not for being Jewish.

Reminds me of Niemoeller: "When the Nazis came for the Catholics, I wasn't a Catholic and so said nothing. When they came for the Jews, I'm not Jewish, and so I said nothing, when the came for the homosexuals, I wasn't a homosexual and so I said nothing, but then they came for me, there was nobody to speak up."

@Lyzko
I bet it's just criticism. Just because someone criticises a given group doesn't mean they don't love them. Right?

@all
Anyone who put this sign up is a little prejudiced man.

Exactly.
I love Jews but I also find them to be one of the most annoying, opinionated, abrasive, self serving, mannerless, flagrant, self centered, complaining, self absorbed, pushy, obnoxious, pain in the asses in the world. ANY HOW.................

he is prejudiced but not without a reason kaprys - Polish anglers very often catch fish to take them home - my brother who lived in the UK longer than me told me about it (he took part in it) - which is against British rules for the most part

I think you might have gotten your threads mixed up. This is the antisemitism one, not the antipolonism one.

On the other side, you have strictly gay, female, man, etc clubs. You even have strictly ethnic clubs. For Blacks, Whites, Jews, etc.

Interesting point there, WP, while this sign is clearly primarily anti-semitic, it is also Polonophobic, as it bans Polish Jews (and Polish communists). I wonder when we'll see the usual crusaders against Polonophobia condemning it.

I love Jews but I also find them to be

How surprising to see you making a racist statement.

@gumishu
WielkiPolak is right. You mixed up the threads. I was talking about the antisemitic sign.

@Taxpaying voter
I doubt it's only about Polish Jews and communists.
