Poland was once called “Paradise for Jews” so many had moved there from areas which persecuted them. There was no reason for them to be anti-Polish, they were sometimes their only friends.

Jewish history in Poland was up and down. There were periods within which the ruler protected them. There were other periods which were not so benevolent.

Then there is the problem of defining the Polish territories which fluctuated a great deal over the centuries. This also means defining just who the Poles are because the populations related to the ambiguous nature of the borders.

Poland was the least anti-Semitic country in Europe until the Russians took it over.

Poland was the least anti-Semitic country in Europe until the Russians took it over.

Russians, Prussians and Austrians to be precise. Simply Polish population realized that the Jews get along with the occupants quite well. Culmination of their lack of loyalty to Polish state came with Joseph Stalin during and after the WWII. Soviets installed the Jews on the top posts because they knew there was no sentiment to Polish nation on their side.

Of course the Jewish side never apologized the Poles for anything their countrymen done. While they always demand Poles apologize for every single wrongdoing. Thus the Poles hate to hear about our antisemitism over an over while the issue of Jewish crimes against us is completely ignored.

Beside of that, multiculturalism doesn't work, when a minority becomes too large they don't assimilate. Vast majority of Jewish population in Poland did not learn our language despite living here few centuries. I know very well that Americans aren't happy about growing Hispanic population stuck in Spanish only speaking areas.

Unlike American liberal Jews those in Israel don't practice multicultural policy when they gained their own state.
