Do try your level best not to impute ethnocentric notions to another culture. Poles I know and have worked with for years simply have often a more up front way of expressing themselves than Anglo-Saxons are used to.

Julian Tuwim and Artur Rubinstein considered themselves proud Polish Jews, historically Jewish, but Polish by birth as well as nationality!

I don't want gentiles to "emulate" Jews, just allow us to live together in peace.

You're Russian then. Awwrigt, be cagey, don't tell. You'll trip yourself up eventually anyhow. As far as your post, both Germany and Poland scarcely had a monopoly on anti-Semitism. How about Romania, Ukraine, and Russiá?

As a German, you'd be familiar with such in your country's history, unless you also happen to be Jewish.

People, why should anti-Semitism remain such a shock? Look at the facts. Practically no other European country has been as staunchly Roman Catholic as Poland. What language did to serve as the glue to hold together all German lands, faith did for the Polish people.The Church preached that the Jews crucified Jesus and the Poles swallowed it hook line and sinker, with precious few exceptions

Having lived in as well as travelled through Germany, Bavaria would without a doubt be the most majestic and breathtaking, Upper Bavaria such as Werdenfelser Land in particular!

Apropos, have often wondered whether or not "swiat" and "swiatlo" might be distantly related. Merely a thought as I've been unable to access a sufficiently thorough Polish etymological dictionary-
