“OK where are the rest 30-60.000 Russian POWs?”

Give yourself a chance and read the articles, that I provided links to - both in English and in Russian.

"Today we should pay respect, we should preserve their memory. Historical memory, of what is good and of what is bad, is important. But this does not mean we want to feed only on this memory," he said.

Wise words.

And an anathema to those who thrive in today's PC environment, unfortunately.

Why would NKVD use German pistols with German bullets to kill Poles?

The ammo used by NKVD in Katyn was Geco bullets, made actually by a German Genschow company. Before WW2 that ammo (just like German made Walther pistols also used in Katyn) were exported to Poland and USSR.

During the US Congress Katyn hearings (http://www.conservativeclassics.com/books/Katynbk/BK07.PDF) Mr. Genschow testified about ammo as follows:

Mr. GENSCHOW. The cartridges of the shells of this pistol ammunition carried, since the year 1933-34, the word "Geco" on the bottom of the shell, and underneath the "Geco" was "7.65".
Question. Can 7.65 ammunition of the type manufactured by this firm be used in various hinds and makes of pistols?
Mr. GENSCHOW. Yes, it could; because it was a standard type cartridge which could be used in very many different makes of pistols.
Question. Was it used internationally by various nations, police, or armed forces, in pistols?
Mr. GENSCHOW. Yes certainly.
Question. Did this firm ever export pistol ammunition of the caliber 7.65 to Eastern Europe?
Mr. GENSCHOW. Yes; that is the case.

I must admit I don't get why it's so funny?
And why "The correspondent of AFP needs to have the some geography lessons". Maybe you should take some?

If Katyn is located in Smolensk Region (precisely 19 km west of Smolensk), then it's not western Russia???



Dude, if your knowledge of history is just like the one of geography, then I don't wonder anymore why you post such a BS here.

The funny thing is that you provide them with tons of reading,whereas they just say “no, the truth is different” without even proving this.
But I think your hard work is fully appreciated by people other then those brainwashed revisionist.

Are guys are full of ... emotions. And I can understand this. You are overhelmed by your potato-bros propaganda. Anyway, it is difficult to ignore facts:
1. German pistols of THREE DIFFERENT CALIBERS
2. German ropes
3. Abrupt stop of German investigations in 1942
4. Numerous evidence from locals that execution was performed by Germans
5. Medical expertise and exgumation by Dr. Burdenko stating that killing took place in 1941 (i.e. by Germans)
6. Discovery of documents on bodies dated aug-sep 1941 (Smolensk was occupied by Nazis by this time)

Body of evidence agaisnt your version is growing every day but of course thinking is difficult and truth is not welcomed in Poland. It is easier to scream and whine and blame Russia for everything and ask, and beg for COMPENSATION.

Blah, blah, blah...

By posting such BS you place yourself in line with those, who say, that holocaust actually has never happened and Auschwitz actually was a spa, or that Poles started WW2 by attacking radio Station in Gliwice (Gleiwitz), etc., etc.

Pathetic.

and ask, and beg for COMPENSATION.

And this is obviously what really hurts you.

But don't worry - no one in Poland is asking, demanding nor begging for compensation.

The only thing we're asking for is TRUTH.

But I understand, that this is a notion being totally unknown to you guys out there.

“Body of evidence agaisnt your version is growing every day but of course thinking is difficult and truth is not welcomed in Poland. It is easier to scream and whine and blame Russia for everything and ask, and beg for COMPENSATION.”

Then why the hell Gorbachov and Jelcyn said that it was Russians who did it?
Why did they gave only few documents if they have nothing to hide?
Tell me one more thing...
How the hell do you know what happend since Pravda newspaper sold in years 39-40 is still classified?

You are just like your president, contestating the truth without any proves. Lately he claimed that Ribbentrop - Molotov pact was only a non-aggression pact.

“4.Numerous evidence from locals that execution was performed by Germans”

Give me a break, when polish scientists were in Katyn they wanted to talk with people living there, but they couldn’t, cause troops with AK-47 didn’t let them.

“5. Medical expertise and exgumation by Dr. Burdenko stating that killing took place in 1941 (i.e. by Germans)”

Burdenko was a commie, he would claim that Germans killed Jesus Christ if he was ordered to by his supervisor. You can’t trust anyone who has 3 Orders of Lenin.

Indeed Katyn is in Russia, my mistake. But then how come your “duck” happened to be in Russia? I never heard he was ever invited?

Kaczynski took part in ceremonies both in a cemetery for Catholic victims and in another cemetery for Russian victims of Stalinist repression, a Polish embassy spokesman told AFP.

He was also to visit churches of the Roman Catholic and Russian Orthodox faiths.

Putin sent an envoy, Georgy Poltavchenko, in his place.


Either Putin doesn't know what's going on in his country, or those those idiots from Kremlin failed to inform you about this event. (sarcasm)

Damn! How dare they?!

Abrupt stop of German investigations in 1942

Why would the Germans be "investigating" their own mass murders? Were there German "investigations" at Treblinka and Belzec? Hardly. Coverups, yes; investigations, no.

Nice attempt at historical revisionism. You have one thing going for you, at least ... for every Pole the NKVD murdered, they murdered a thousand or more Soviet citizens.

The USSR is the greatest mass murder conspiracy in the history of mankind.

Lizol believe me I heared not about such event. There were no information about it on TV news and papers during last 2 weeks to now. I do not say that I rigorously watch news each day but I thought that such event as the Kazynski visit should be covered. I see the EuroNews channel each morning when I gather to go to work but I didn’t see nothing about this on it either.
