History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [593]

Ethnic Poles gave Jewish Poles and Polesses a one way passport without the right to come back.

The so called travel document - it allowed to leave Poland but not come back.

History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [593]

then yes.

Nope, they were Polish communists aka ethnic Poles. From Polish villages and towns.

rather than stay in Poland and find another job they emigrated on their own

No, liar, they didn`t. They were forced to emigrate coz they were threatened by ethnic Poles they wouldn`t find any job and their kids would be expelled from universities and grammar schools.

Ethnic Poles gave Jewish Poles and Polesses a one way passport without the right to come back.

I won't because Poloniusz won

Actually, he didn`t. It turns out that most native Poles and Polesses in the forum and a few foreign Polish guys support Jews in Poland while only two Americans like Polo or you are against. Who wins in the Polish forum? Poles and Polesses do.

You can kiss our human and monkey asses!! hahahaha

Philosemitism is just another form of antisemitism.

Exactly. We love Jews so much that we antisemitically critisize them to make them even more perfect.

I also read that he sat out WWII in safety and comfort overseas

Like Chopin who didn `t go to the Rising.

Yet, decent Poles never had a problem with both. :):):)

isn't.

It is your biased view which most Poles reject coz they love Tuwim`s poetry which is still taught at schools of all levels. Ha!

Life / Is Polish church involved in politics too much? [137]

The clergy are said to support and favour rightwing politicians, especially the ones who rule Poland nowadays.

3 years after the OP`s post, the things look no better for the RC Church in Poland. The number of people attending Sunday mass and the number of students attending RC religion classes at schools have been falling steadily. And the trend will continue coz still too many Church officials allow themselves to be openly critical of the new gov and the changes in the law that are planned, e.g, same sex partnerships acknowledged by the state.

Another dodging of my question

You tell us the story of your antisemitism first and then we tell you our stories of philosemitism. Simple.

You can't say

Yes, I can and I do it. Your biased whining is meaningless.

News / Grzegorz Braun extinguishes Hanukkah candles in Polish Parliament [459]

Danuta Goska who wrote the book:Bieganski The Brute Polak Stereotype, Its Role in Polish-Jewish Relations and American Popular Culture. says about this incident:

All of these factors, from decades ago and from today's headlines, make Braun's vandalism particularly sickening. This isn't just about extinguishing candles. Braun's act is a reflection of a profoundly evil mind and a sick soul. If the Brauns of this world had more power, Heaven knows what the world would look like. Perhaps fires for "heretic" Protestants would fill the air with ash, just as Braun filled the air with choking debris during his vile stunt..

By the way, how long have you been a Zionist and what inspired you to become and remain one?

Let`s reverse it - how long have you been an antisemite and what inspired you? :):):)

If the Jews and the Jews alone made Poland so strong and prosperous then why were any partitions attempted and successful?

Because too many Polish elites, top aristocracy and royals, prefered to ally with Russians. Jews couldn`t prevent it. Simple.

News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]

without any evidence.

You are lying as usual. There are multiple sources on the importance of Jewish trade or industry in Polish economy both before, during and after partitions.

E.g,
Jerzy Topolski further concluded that from the second half of the seventeenth century, the Jewish population that was concentrated in the eastern part of the commonwealth "was an element in introducing the latifundial economic system. Without it, we would have had something like a living organism without blood."

No wonder, then, that the Sobieskis and Radziwiłłs supported the Jewish merchants, whose activities invigorated the economy of the latifundium and brought additional income from the fees they could levy on any form of mercantile activity. Further, as Adam Teller has observed, in the eighteenth century these activities not only generated revenues for the magnates, but also sustained the functioning of markets in the towns themselves.

History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [593]

The Israeli article goes on to ask where the racist stereotypes come from despite some shared history between the two countries.

Hmmm, probably they still remember how ethnic Poles expelled thousands of Jewish Poles in 1968???

History / Recommended Poland's history books [257]

Curious facts:
The Polish king died at the battlefield. Allegedly Ottomans cut off his head while the body was never found.

He was only 20 years old.

In some countries urban legends claimed that the king survived and went into hiding under a different identity.

There is a mausoleum to the King in Varna - I visited it during our trip to Bulgaria in 1970s. Below.

During WW2, Americans were looking for a pretext to eliminate Japanese Navy admiral Yamamoto. They thought it was immoral to kill such an important commander just like that. They searched historical archives and found the case of the Polish kings who was killed in battle. That fact gave green light to shooting down Yamamoto`s plane.

It is good that the Polish Parliament honours the Jewish who once were an important part of the Polish state. They ceased to be due to tragic developments during WW2. Apart from Germans and Austrians as the main perpetrators of the Holocaust, there were also ethnic Poles who murdered Jews for various reasons. Today, to make up for those crimes, let the candles be lit.

Life / Polish women who made amazing careers against patriarchal society [128]

lives in the company of many cats and boxed wine.

A cat is better than a macho azhole husband who needs to dominate to feel good.

And wine is much better than vodka massively consumed by macho azholes.
Ha!
Women of the world, unite against azholing machos! Polish women showed you how!

History / Why Poland achieved nothing at all? [69]

Why Poland achieved nothing at all?

Simple. Whenever Poland was close to achieve sth, Germans, Russians, Swedes, Czechs attacked her and destroyed everything. Together or seperately. E..g, in 1939 Soviets and Nazis had an alliance to crush Poland.

Germans reformed and are new people today. So did Swedes and Czechs.
While most Russians are the same imperialists they always were. When will they reform at last???
I don`t want to experience another destruction.

Ooops, Polish is too conservative for such nuances. The translation would be typical words like improve, correct sth. Nothing special.

Food / Half-free Christmas bigos. SMACZNEGO at Christmastime! [99]

but avocado and corn still do not go together with bigos.

I just read Italians have started making pizza with pineapples which they rejected for centuries so far.

I have the right to serve bigos with corn, too!!!!!!! Ha!!!

And nobody will tell me I can`t. Coz I am Polish and know I am doing the right thing. It is my bigos, my corn, my taste buds, my post. Simple.

HA!!!!!!

All in all, women will rule everywhere in the world sooner or later. It is the only chance for mankind to survive. Suicidal males are eager to kill each other in foolish competition, while wise women choose cooperation. And they win.
