Bless them. They are an example of how to stand up to a crazy dictator.

What a display of courage! They fought with everything they had. Better to die fighting than in a gas chamber. It's an inspiring story of valor under the worst conditions, but still terribly sad nonetheless.

I wonder at what point Hitler could have been crushed by the German people before he took control over the entire country. It would make a good doctoral thesis.

They made a movie about it, but it only came on once:

The young Jewish boy to the right survived the war. The SS bastard with the submachine gun, whose last name was Bloch and known as “Frankenstein’’ in the Ghetto was tried by a Polish court and hung.

now you know why the Ukrainians are fighting so hard Russia didn't set up extermination camps in Poland, they liberated them.
Ukraine otoh embraced Nazism, and the Poles suffered horribly as a result.

they liberated them
in actual fact, Russia did not interefere, and instead carefully waited outside Warsaw while the Nazis were putting down the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, and ONLY THEN, after the Nazis had already eliminated most of the resistance, did they move in to "liberate" Warsaw ... and then plunged Poland and every other Eastern European country into a 40-year Soviet-controlled occupation hell that was as bad or worse as the Nazis
let's make sure we remember History truthfully, without your Russian propaganda

Several German generals were planning to take out Hitler in 1938.
Then Munich happened, and Hitler then became untouchable.

You’re absolutely correct about the Soviets waiting while Polish resistance in Warsaw was destroyed by the Nazis, but that occurred in 1944, while the Warsaw ghetto uprising happened in 1943.
To: mac_truck
The 1940 Polish officer corps, doubtless, would disagree with you. At least they would have had the Soviets not murdererd them at Katyn Forest.

The bottom picture is Not Stefan Bandera but one of Reinhard Gehlen, German lieutenant-general and intelligence officer. He was chief of the Wehrmacht Foreign Armies East military intelligence service on the eastern front during World War II.
This fundamental error renders the post to be nothing but BS.

Funny how so many older publications identify him as Bandera though...considering his pedigree maybe its intentional.

The Soviets sent over a million Poles in their occupied part of Poland in 1939 to Siberia.
