all of Poland, some passivity!

TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (02.10.18)
Jews were indeed " passive" during the time of the Holocaust, we have always known that.It is not groundbreaking news. Jews in Europe in those dark and terrible times, had no weapons, no training, scant militey experience, no fighter jets, no submarines, no guns, no tanks ,and they did not relish the prospect of confronting the mighty german army and polish militias with just their bare hands and fingernails, even Bruce Lee , Chuck Norris and Seven Seagal would have froze or balked at that idea. But please search your polish soul and honestly confront your past and your present attitude .Polish antisemitism runds deep ,it always has and no amount of trying to project that on to the jews will change that fact.

Andre ,   Clichy   (02.10.18)
First revolt: Jews of Warsaw Ghetto. Poles stood by...when they didn't actually help their German occupiers. No lesson to learn from Poles. Permanently occupied and vanquished.
7. It's always the victim's fault!
David ,   Hartford USA   (02.10.18)
The Poles were indoctrinated with Jew hatred, from birth, by the Church.
The Poles, for years, looked the other way, as the Jews were rounded up.
The Poles, even after the war, killed returning Jews to steal their property.

What's this all mean?

Obviously, the Jews themselves, small shopkeepers, tradesman, and farmers, were to blame for their troubles!!

If this moron, the best and brightest of Polish intellectuals, is an adviser to the Polish president, then Poland worse off than we ever thought.

If the mighty Polish army collapsed in a matter of hours when confronted by the Nazis, what was an unarmed scattered Jewish population to do?

Who's the bigger fool? The idiot adviser or the president who took the adviser's recommendation? Poland: land of fools.

And if they aren't fools, then something much more sinister is afoot.....
8. Nothing new on Earth...Antisemitism of all shades...
Denis ,   Brașov   (02.10.18)
The Polish antisemitism has been there for centuries, as in many other countries of Central- and Eastern Europe...
As for anti-Jewish Polish behaviour during and even immediately after WWII, one could notice the events in Lwow during war's early days, as well as the crimes in a Polish town after the war...
9. Doesn't help to see US Jews advocate against 2nd Amendment.
JVC ,   LA/TA   (02.10.18)
Sorry, there's a correlation there. US Jews in particular seem overtly hostile to 2nd Amendment advocacy, the private ownership and carriage of firearms, III percenters, etc. The Jewish ambivalence and at times, hostility, to self defense, martial skill sets and "lowly" service professions like LE and military enlistment is not helpful. Their endless sucking up to the Democratic party with its pro-"Palestinian" offshoots, BDS, and anti-2A advocacy defies explanation. Trump is the best thing to happen to Israel since Truman and I have heard Jews call Trump an anti-semite. Really? Doctors and lawyers are useless when when the gov goes leviathan. Wake up Diaspora Jews. I was not around to see the Holocaust era but based on the way I see US Jews ally their political will, it is not hard for me to imagine that... "They went like sheep to the slaughter..."
10. 17 million murdered by Nazis, not just Jews

11. Curious
chuck ,   Toulouse   (02.10.18)
How can you imagine that jews with polish names, were not shown to nazis by polish people ? How can you believe that germans knew who was jew or not at that time if the polish people did not tell them ? The responsibility of polish people is obvious, as, the one of nazis. Just imagine, after war, there were still some pogroms there.
12. Ignorant talkback
Sky Blue ,   București   (02.10.18)
I can't help noticing how ignorant are the people commenting here You guys dont even understant the subject Poland simply wants a law that clarifies that death camps were not runned by polish people state. What's wrong with that? Is the historical truth- they were not.
13. ?
MINKOWSKI ,   Paris   (02.10.18)
who cares your business?
14. yes jews were passive
ky   (02.10.18)
Elderly Jewish men and women and young children aged from 6-15 most definitely should have found some spare weapons and tanks that the Germans left lying around and fought back. . As soon as the Nazis crossed over the Polish border an army of Jewish soldiers should have been there all ready , armed with anti tank weapons and bazookas . Spitfires flown by Bubas aged over 70 would have most certainly stopped them. The truth is that the Jewish population was caught in a trap where organised resistance had vanished . When you tell a lie tell it big, the real passivity came from the population of continental Europe. The Nazis raped it from top to bottom and they did nothing
15. US Jewry were passive as they are today with Israeli deaths

16. Jews may have been passive, Polish were plain
A ,   OutThere   (02.10.18)
stupid. Who else would charge modern, sophisticated armor on horseback with VERY sharp bayonets drawn? Polaks.
17. These words are probably misunderstood
Tomek ,   Poland   (02.10.18)
The common accusation leveled against Christian Poles is that they were indifferent to the plight of their Jewish compatriots. It is baffling because no moral code obliges a person to risk their own life for another. Acts like this are always extraordinarily heroic. To make all of this more apparent, Zybertowicz points out that Jews were not doing enough to save themselves. Blunt and undiplomatic but it gets the point across. And I was listening to Wagner while writing this...
18. Israel keeps the Holocaust alive.....
(02.11.18)
This is to remind everybody that one cannot trust the goy even after 40 years in the grave. Show us a day in history for the past 3000 years in which the goys gave the Jews a break? Pogroms, expulsions, murder, slaughter, gas chambers. Whatever the wild imagination can come with, the goys committed against the Jews. And for what? just for that bloody sentence " chosen people".
Chosen for what? to win the lotto? to have the gratest country with the best economy in the world? No. Chosen to lead by example. That's all.
Take the priviledge of the "chosen" and leave us alone. We don't want this burden. Just leave us alone.
19. Passive jews
James Levi   (02.11.18)
The diaspora Jews are passive, they never fight back which makes them an easy pray. In my opinion this is the main reason for anti-semitism, hating Jews has no negative affect. It's time Jews wake up and physically and violently defend themselves. It's time Jews realize God is not protecting them, he never does.
20. obsessing over Poles & determined to conjure up villains
Cameron   (02.11.18)
To what intent this game you play?

21. Polish hater
C   (02.10.18)
how could the germans defeat sovereign poland in a matter of weeks.
how could the germans slaughter three million polish catholics.
how could the germans destroy much of poland.
22. Polish murderers in the woods
Sue ,   NY   (02.11.18)
My grandparents and uncles as well as a family they hid in the woods were murdered by poles who went “hunting” my mother still has her bullets from Poland in her back. They were not passive they were stuck in a murderous sleezy polish country with polish death camps surrounding me. Arrest me Poland we would have a hell of atrial
23. Collabarators who murder
Sue ,   NY   (02.11.18)
How many jews were killed by those the nazis killed
24. Boys will be boys and Polish boys will be...... Polish, no?
(02.11.18)
25. Polish Treason
Marlene Shapiro ,   Brooklyn, NY   (07.08.18)
How dare they try to blame others for their own murderous hands. They did not resist the builiding of Auschwitz in their country. Shame on the Polish goverment for allowing this to happen. They would do anything and did anything to confiscate the property of their neighboors. The rich jew is all the Poles were thinking of and how to get their property and get rid of them. Tell the truth and not a lie, but of course lying is all about them.
26. Mr
Jack ,   Shoham   (12.08.18)
I noted a response by someone stating there was Jewish resistance - to which a person responded that the Jewish fighters were enraged by the fact that very few resisted ..... I think the statement that fighters were enraged by fellow Jews is false - since the fighters all had dead, ill and malnourished family members and friends who could not fight alongside them - it makes no sense and historically is false. The attempt to portray a healthy willing society of Jews in the Ghettos who were afraid to resist along with their loyal healthy brave polish comrades is insane and sickening! What else will the Polish non Jews guilt ridden anti semites invent - That the Jews willingly gave up on the second eve of Passover in the Warsaw Ghetto singing "Deutschland Uber Alles" ???!??! Sick antisemitic claims.
