caww,
What in God’s name did you expect the Polish people to do against the TWO Powerful Maniac forces that invaded Poland in 1939.....Nazi Germany and its former best friend Soviet Russia.... when they Co-Invaded Poland to exterminate Jews & Poles??
Poland had a WWII population of 32 million....while Nazi Germany which invaded Poland from the West had 80 million people while shortly after Nazi Germany’s 1939 Good friend Soviet Russia (had 140 million people) invaded Poland from the east. Tell me? How in God’s name was a nation like Poland suppose to stop the Anti-Jewish actions (and Anti-Polish actions) of two HUGE maniac nations....Nazi Germany and its former friend Soviet RuSSia who...made their Nazi German-RuSSian Molotov-Ribbentrop pact to invade and destroy Poland and all of its Jews and Poles??? You sound as if you think the Poles should have had some kind of superhuman powers to repel these two huge monster nations. You sound quite irrational and Anti-Polish.
There were ‘collaborators’ in each of the nations the Nazis occupied...the cooperation of others in the occupied countries was essential to carry out their deathly, murderous project....Additionally many Jews also informed on, profited from, and assisted in murdering, their fellow Jews. But ‘the War and program to rid Europe of all Jews’... was and remains entirely at the feet of Nazi Germany.
Polish citizens were not exempt from that collaboration....though they certainly have sensitivities when anyone mentions so. I get what Poland as a whole did and suffered....but there were plenty enough who assisted none the less.....I will not give them a free pass who did.
