disowning any Jewish claim to Jlem. Polish Government promised to vote against-but of course voted for.
It's inane to sell Rafael missile technology to Poland as Israel does,sooner or later it'll be used against Israel.

2. typical
WIZ ,   Ottawa   (02.01.18)
Israeli politicians were celebrating the nationalist anti islam protests but when this happens to them, they start crying. What did you think, you are welcomed by these racist thugs cause you are not muslim. jokes on you
3. Polish Holocaust law
lazerbenabba ,   London England   (02.01.18)
What do you expect from a people who are imbued with the fundamental Catholic creed of blood libel of the Jews.
The Poles are merely reflecting the dark soul of their endemic hatred of the Jewish people.
Yes there are a few exceptions with the the emphasis upon few.
4. Repulsive behavior by Poland. But nothing new, right?
Dave ,   Hartford USA   (02.01.18)
Seventy-five years ago, the Poles (not all of them, but most of them), decided to assist the Nazis in order to make their own lives a tiny bit easier.

There is massive undeniable evidence that Poles assisted in rounding up Polish Jews, of tracking them down and reporting them to the complicit police, of killing them outright for Nazi reward money, and for stealing their homes and property. Then, if that wasn't enough, they murdered the surviving Jews when they returned and tried to reclaim their own homes.

Can you imagine the outrage if the USA tried to pass a law that said it was illegal to say that the USA stole land from the native Americans, pushed them onto reservations in desolate locations, and killed as many as they could get in range of their guns? The native Americans would be livid, as would all Americans today. We can handle the truth, even when it shows us at our worst. Obviously Poland cannot.

What's interesting (and disgusting) is that most of the Polish perpetrators are dead or soon will be. So the Polish government is writing this law for future generations, to erase history and their collective cultural memory.

I have this to say to Poland: We will not forget what you did. Our parents and grandparents perished in agony on the soil of their own country, with your complicity. That fact cannot be altered by any law you choose to pass. You can try to whitewash the sickening behavior of your parents and grandparents, but the evidence is in an you have no moral high ground to stand on. You were tested and found wanting.

Poland, as a country, is the largest Jewish graveyard on the entire planet. By passing this despicable law, you announce to the world that integrity, honesty, and historical truth have no place in today's Poland.
5. Nazinexus, book by Edwin Black
Mr Reason ,   Berlin   (02.01.18)
It's time for the Jewish public to discuss the role USA business and government plaid in assisting Hitler in perpetrating Holocaust.
Read Nazinexus by a NY times journalist, and you then will have to reconsider completely the history of the genocide. I was in 2017 in Had VA Shem and some to a historian there. They know about it, but no word of it in the exhibition.
6. they could also pass a law stating that the world is flat
Rafi ,   US   (02.01.18)
No matter how many "laws" they pass - the facts are what they are:

Many Poles took full advantage of the German Final Solution to murder Jews on their own.

Of course the Ukrainians were even worse... At least the Poles had a few Righteous Gentiles in their midst...

Were Jews anti-Semites? A bit of truth about Jewish behavior for other Jews. Here is the proof of the original film from the ghetto.

9. The kettle and the pot
Tomek ,   Poland   (02.02.18)
You have so many laws preventing free, unrestricted debate about the Holocaust. This way you want to ensure your narrative, factual or otherwise, is accepted as dogma by others. Yet you have the audacity to act as defenders of free speech. Cry me a river. And stop being so outraged by everything and everybody because it is not true that whoever is the loudest is right.
