Baloney!.....Don't play down Polands role in this or any other country that went along to get along with the Nazi's...and I speak of the citizenship...not just the leaders.

How many camps were there in Poland alone.....you simply cannot have that camps without the people's awareness, both in the host country as well as neighboring...

So is your point that the Poles were complicit in the Holocaust?

Your posts at FR indicate that you are a rabid anti-Catholic, so I can only assume that this drives your animus toward the Poles.

My Polish grandfather was a civil engineer. After the Polish resistance blew up a local railway bridge, Nazi troops came to his house and asked him to help repair the bridge. He refused and was taken away and shot.

My grandmother was taken away to "work in Germany." She was never heard from again.

My father, at age 14, was put into forced labor. He eventually escaped, was captured, conscripted into the German army, deserted in Italy, and eventually joined up with a Polish regiment in Italy.

This level of suffering was the norm for Polish families in WWII. Talk to some.

How do you imagine that these people would be able to liberate the death camps?

Educate yourself. Your ignorance is colossal and appalling. There is no excuse for it in the age of the internet.

No...it's that ‘the citizens’ knew what was happening at the camps . They knew what the Nazi Agenda was regarding the Jewish population.

Poland took a hit...and after they fell there was great underground resistence against the Nazi's....but I'm not addressing that...I'm addressing that the neighbor hoods of all these camps knew what was happening.

BTW...Save your anti-catholic finger pointing for somebody else....that very mindset is one of the many reasons catholicism is opposed. Stop playing victim. Just because you're indoctrinated to use that excuse doesn't mean you have to fall lockstep in line with your leadership....
