"...when the Nazis occupied Poland."

This is one of the few things I hate in America - calling Hitler's Germans "Nazis". THEY WERE GERMANS. JUST GERMANS, whereas only the small percentage of them were NSDAP officials and operatives.

As far as we look into it, that simplistic Nazi terms collapse at all. For instance, some Poles before the war were Nazis indeed and hated Jews. However they were murdered by Germans too, just because they were Polish, the "untermenschen".

So, when it comes to the crunch and contemporary young men are asked about WWII, its outbreak victims and aggressors, things are not as easy as it seems to be. Although the vast majority says that "Nazis started the war", answering the question "Who were the Nazis?", e.g. many students of the history faculty of the University of Washington say they were...Poles, adding that "In 1939, Polish Nazis invaded peaceful Polish Jews..." :(((((

Anyway, the Polish TV broadcast a documentary about it. The whole nation could see that with their own eyes. My God!!! It was shot in 2010 or so! In the very heart of the sole world's superpower! Answers given by the future intellectual elite of the USA!

So, I wouldn't be surprised at all if in the near future I was called "a son of Nazis", a son of those who on Sep.1,1939 invaded peaceful Germans, created hundreds of death camps etc. etc. etc.

And Austrians......In fact, the Austrians were even WORSE than the Germans...Of course, Hitler was one of them.....Eichmann sent his formative years in Austria, Seyss-Inquart, Kaltenbrunner were born in Austria....but it seems no one remembers Austria's role.
