able to make the life of their citizens paradisic just because they are sitting on oil.

Denmark did actually sold large areas with oil in the Northern Sea to Norway. Boy don't they regret, I think it had something to do with the entrance to EU.

Does anyone know who the painter is that is shown right before the start of the Second World War? I think it is Witkiewicz, but I would like confirmation.

Two peoples depend on history like none other: Jewish and Polish.

Let`s deal with the Polish approach, then.

Activists and city council historical monument conservationists raised hell after seeing that certain developing company was pulling down a ruined building in the centre of Warsaw.

The building at 8 Łucka Street is the oldest tenement house in Wola. The history of Abram Włodawer's tenement house dates back to the 19th century. It was built in 1878. It was one of the few in this part of the city to survive the tragedy of World War II.

The tenement house had been on the register of monuments since 1992, which - theoretically - obliged the owner to take care of its condition, preserve the historic elements in an unchanged form and conduct regular conservation works. In 2012, it was returned to the heirs of the former owners, then it was taken over by the company JM Invest. The developer applied to the Ministry of Culture to remove the building from the register due to its constantly deteriorating condition. The ministry refused, the company fought in court, until it finally achieved what it was striving for. Social activists from the association Tu Było, Tu Stało reported that after the last judgment of the WSA "ruling the loss of the historic value of the building, the ministry was forced to remove the building from the register".

Irrelevant sentimentality, detached from reality.

The building, in its dilapidated state, is a testament to the weakness and decay of what has already been. It no longer has the strength to endure, and thus, it must perish.

the owner...the heirs of the former owners...the developer

Any of them Jewish? :)

Jewish? :)

You agree to the destruction coz the house was built by a Jewish landlord, indeed. Would you act likewise in case of Polish built property in Tel Aviv??? :):):)

Oh, absolutely, I'd be just as outraged over a "Polish-built" property in Tel Aviv - if such a thing existed! :)

The absurdity of your question is almost as grand as the nonexistent Polish skyline in Tel Aviv! :)

Remind us again about that oh-so-important historical co-dependence you were rambling on about between Poles and Jews. :)

Not really. The combined history of Polish and Jewish peoples remains in the minds and hearts for ever even if one group ceased to exist here.

if such a thing existed! :)

That is why I said: Would you act likewise ......

The sentence contains the Second Conditional. Do you know what grammatical message it carries ????? ):):)

Just like fairytales. :)

So now you're talking grammar, huh? :)

The second conditional - yeah, it's for hypotheticals, like Polish buildings in Tel Aviv! :)

Too bad those don't actually exist, right?

But sure, keep dancing around the point, I'm sure grammatical intricacies will clear up all your inconsistencies. :)

Not quite. :):):)
We don`t build museums to fairy tales in Poland.
While to Polish Jews, yes, we do. )::):):)

And nothing says harmonious relations between Poles and Jews better than having to outsource the design of this Jewish museum in Poland to a Finnish architectural firm. :)

Obviously, many Polish hands (all men, of course) worked to actually build that big box, but how many Jewish hands got dirty and calloused during its construction? :)

It is called globalisation. Do you know what it means or the news hasn`t reached your basement yet??? :):):)

but how many Jewish hands

Who cares????? Do you??? :):):)
I could ask you a similar question - how many times have you been told to get down to real work instead of wasting time on your PC????

It's not about me. :)

You started this topic and as you usually you don't like the way it is going. ;)

Who cares????? Do you???

Yes, I do care and so should you! You can't have Diversity without Equity and Inclusion.

You should be very bothered that no sweat equity was derived from the Jewish community if they excluded themselves into the actual building of yet another museum dedicated to themselves.

It is called globalisation

Indeed, and the world needs ditch diggers too! With that in mind, why are you always so eager to sing the praises of what you present as Jewish contributions to Poland, yet are genuinely incensed at the thought that any of it should involve manual labor?

Manual labor - sweat, dirt, and wealth creation, Jewsh hell...

Banking and swindling - no sweat, no dirt, no wealth creation, Jewish paradise...

Yes, but it explains why he was sentenced to 150 years in prison.

150 years in prison.

Do some Jews live to be 200?

I don't get those high-number sentences? How about LWOP or an execution...See Rosenbergs.

Good old days...Today, they would sipping drinks with umbrellas in Israel or Sochi.
