News / Polonophobia rising in Israel. [144]
Well this resentment isn't everywhere. The reasons are different. In Israel some people still have an image of Polish people disliking Jews and basically think they took part in the the holocaust together with Germany. Now they believe Poland owes Jews compensation for that, so they don't like them. In Russia it's down to the very negative past between Poland and Russia, so many Russians and Polish people just don't like each other.
In other places, where there are a lot of Polish people, such as the UK, it might well be a numbers thing. There are lots of Polish people there and locals feel like they are taking their jobs etc. That type of resentment is aimed at foreigners in general though, anywhere where there are a lot of them, not just Polish people.
