And it has mounted a campaign to erase the communist legacy entirely, ridding Poland’s streets of the names of former communists, and its squares and roundabouts of the hundreds of “monuments of gratitude” put up for the 600,000 Soviet soldiers estimated to have died fighting the Nazis on Polish territory.

others, like Borodacz, want all traces of that period destroyed.

He's not much different from the history revisionist who want to erase the legacy of the confederacy in this country.

They are doing the same in Ukraine. A big statue of Lenin was pounded into pea gravel a few years ago in Kiev.

No. It’s very different. The Soviets invaded Poland WITH Hitler in 1939.

It would be more like Atlanta tearing down statues of Sherman, but none were ever erected.
