Israel furious as Poland signs law to limit property claims [200]
I read the article referenced in Post 1 and found this under Duda's photo:
Polish President Andrzej Duda signed a law setting a 30-year time limit on challenges to property confiscations - many of them relating to Poland's once-thriving Jewish community.To most, that sentence would be routine. So those who know Jews, "once-thriving" is telling the whole story and it's not a good one. In a zero-sum service economy, when one group "thrives", it "thrives" at the expense of others - the very definition of exploitation by parasites. In the economy based on wealth production, things are different and "thriving" is not parasitic since it's based on newly created wealth.
Another point...Israel has no basis to claim the law is discriminatory as it affects all equally. So the demagogues resorted to the "impact" of the law, not the literal text of it.
The article acknowledges this point as follows:
While the law covers both Jewish and non-Jewish claimants, campaigners say Jewish owners will be disproportionately affected because they were often late in lodging claims after the war.Translation: because some lazy a-holes can't get their sh*it together in a reasonable time, therefore Poland is anti-Semitic. As they say, it's hard to make this kind of crap up.
Not done yet...
Israel was joined by the United States in its opposition to the legislation, and Lapid said Israel was conducting talks with the Americans on further courses of action.To say that I hate it would be an understatement. For Israel to involve the US as its enforcer in a dispute with another pro-US country is beyond disgusting. If Isreal has a good case, let it argue in some court somewhere with the rules of evidence and by following an established procedure, not by running to a bunch of dual loyalist Jews in DC.
