Yet history shows that the more the Jews of Europe assimilated, indeed converted, the more their lives improved:-) @Novi, insulting your intelligence doesn't take much!

Jews were blamed for every ill under the sun because they were mistakenly targeted as "Christ killers". In fact, it was the Romans who murdered Jesus.

Kinda tough to be even-handed with a German SS goon killing a typically defenseless, unarmed shtettl Jew probably twice the other man's size! For this reason, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising proved once and for all to the Germans as well as the rest of the world that Maccabee spirit, namely, that the Jews weren't nebishy chumps:-)

If Poland doesn't sometimes admit her leaders have feet of clay or that the emperor has no clothes, we've got a serious problem!

Poland belongs to Eastern Europe, more Westernized/Latinized than Russia or Ukraine, yet sqarely Slavic. Czech Republic though is Central European:-)

@Armageddon, why so darned touchy, dude? I'm completely comfortable with stating my nationality as American, therefore your persistant reluctance to tell where you're from does indeed suggest evasiveness bordering on the anti-social! Concerning your remarks apropos Poland, these provocations seem to clearly border on trolling, I'd say.
