As to those "FEW"

The fact, that 1/3 of the total number of the Yad Vashem's Righteous Among the Nations are Polish (despite of circumstances like those described in post #31) is in your opinion a pure coincidence probably. Right?

FYI - Poland was the only country in occupied Europe, where if one helped a Jew (for example gave them shelter) - and the Germans found out about it - they were immediately both killed, together with entire family of the helper.

It's so easy to condemn the others, while sitting in USA in 2007.

that Yad Vashem exists and acknowledges those who were courageous in the fight of good vs. evil, yes proves that it was possible to resist. and the numbers of Jews in Poland, (which has been stated in earlier posts)provided more opportunity for heroes.

please provide evidence:
