Poland didn’t exist at the time of the Holocaust. It had been conqured by Germany. They had no government. Any German map at the time would have shown Poland (along with Austria and Checkeslovakia (sp?) as part of Germany.
So they are saying the government that Germany installed (and controlled) after Germany overran and destroyed the country cooperated with Germany. Well what do you know?
What next? That Hitler’s field generals obeyed Hitler’s orders?
To be more exact, western Poland was officially annexed into the Reich, and then there was the Generalgouvernment, which was where the Nazis dumped the Poles and Jews. It wasn’t technically a part of the Reich, but was more of a colony.
Poland’s “crime” was to be the place where most Jews happened to live, because over the centuries they were more tolerant towards Jews than the rest of Europe, and they were allowed to flourish more than anywhere else.
