Destruction of Ukrainian churches in Poland in 1938 [289]
If this is true, then it's deplorable. Any assault on people's religous sites, the most
cherished of human values, is disgraceful. However, one must not be ahistorical. The truncated 2nd republic felt robbed of its pre-partition terriory. Why on earth should the chief aggressor, Russia, get to keep so much of its partition-era spoils. Even what Poland eventually got under Riga had to be wrested back in bloody armed combat. Let's imagine that some historical vicissitude sudddenly wiped your country off the map and 123 years later you got back less than half of what you lost. Apply that to the US, Britain, France or any other country before starting to bash poor Poland!
Seanus,
At lesast the reprot did not mention Orhtodox clergy and fiathful being killed. Ever wonder why the Western media are so silent about the anti-Catholic atrocities being perpetrated at present in India and elswehwere in the Third World? Not only RC clergy and religious but rank and file faithful are murdered, churches and the homes of Catholics are burnt down and other forms of harrassment are employed.
Must be poltical correctness in action!
