Poles was very antisemitic. But the truth is almost all of Europe in that time collaborated with Hitler in one way or another - in France it was Vichy of Petain, in Italy Mussolini, in Spain a friend of Hitler Franco, the Hungary and Romania collaborted. Ukraine, Bulgaria and Croatia. Norway. They all was sending Jews to concentration camps in Poland. All of Europe should be blamed for Holokaust. And we see almost no one is ashamed, maybe only Germany - everywhere else the far-right emerges, Le Pen, Meloni, Orban. They all are flirting with history and symbols of nazism.
I wouldn't be alive if other Polish people didn't help my great-grandmother and other Jewish people. It's hard to understand how some Jewish spread anti-polonism. Especially that so many of us living in Poland are of Jewish ancestry. We lived together on the same land for centuries. Poland is a tolerant country for all religions and minorities as long as they obey law and reside in Poland legally. I can't understand some Jewish people nowadays.
Poles and people from many other European nations (Hungarians, Estonians, etc.) collaborated with the Naz*s. After the Hol*caust, there were two pogr*ms in Poland (in August 1945 in Kraków and in July 1946 in Kielce).
The Poles lived together with Jews for centuries and we fought together in the resistance. The Polish Army supplied the Jewish insurgencies in Warsaw, Belerus, etc. I'm from Israel and I love and respect the Poles. They were victims themselves. 3 million Catholic Poles died. We must not forget them.

The author suggests Poland's participation in the Holocaust. This is a game of blurring responsibility. Not once did the name of the country that did it. The Germans did it. There were no Polish camps, they were German.
Acknowledge your agenda please. it was the Nazis! Not necessarily the Germans! Such statements are pretty irresponsible & they come with indecent consequences too...
@@mxx5466 not necessarily Germany? So who were the Nazis then? French? Englishmen? Danes? Americans? Or are they Jews? Egyptians? Native Americans? Brazilians? Who were the Nazis? They were Germans and Austrians. Maybe they lived in the Czech Republic or another country, but German was their first language for sure.
I do not understand the moment of 1:58 in which you want to say, "Do you hate them for what they did?" Or "You hate all Poles?" A person who knows history knows that "they" are German Nazis, only in Poland was the death penalty for concealing Jews, yet the greatest number of Righteous Among Nations is from Poland. First read the topic, then ask others for opinion. How can you do an interview without preparation.
before the Holocaust, Antisemitism was rampant in Poland. And in today's Poland, many ppl in Poland are anti-semitic to the core. I'm a middle eastern Arab atheist, I've seen anti-semitism run high within the Arab especially the Muslim community but I kinda understand it considering the recent history of the recent Arab-Israeli conflict. but I can't wrap my head around why some ppl in Poland are anti-semitic, t seems to me that polish jews were good citizens who shared the same atrocities with other poles done to them by the Nazis.
@@majktajsonik6942 I think the reason is there were many Poles who supported the Nazis while many others opposed them. However, as you may know human memory is more easily focused on bad experiences than good ones for genetic reasons. It was more important for the survival of human beings and other animal during our evolution process to memorize what plants, animals and other humans beings can be harmful to their existence. Some snakes may be dangerous while others are not but most of us have brains naturally conditioned to alert us against all of them, specially if we already a bad experience with any of them.
@Ashkenazi Dissident Right Yes, of course we can think critically but that doesn't change the fact that many of your thoughts are solely based on your own personal experience.

@Random Guy There were people in all German occupied countries that helped the nazis out. I just don't understand why all this hatred is pointing at the polish rather than the others. I believe you that there are antisemites in Poland. There are also antisemites in France, England, America, in every single country.

Poland have nothing to do with holocaust, the country at that sad time was under occupation. Natzi Germany did it, before that Jews people lived happy life in Poland since centuries...
I've noticed that Jewish people very rarely express animosity for any ethnic group, and this is a VERY admirable trait. I had a wonderful friend, Eleanor, like a family member, of blessed memory, who went through Auschwitz, the death march, experienced the worst of the worst. She NEVER expressed hatred towards ANY group of people, not the Germans, not the Poles. She used to tell me to judge every person on their own merit, and that "not all Germans were Nazis and not all Nazis were German." I will remember her words always. Wish I could tell Eleanor how much I love her. She was a light in the darkness.
When Jews say that Poles were responsible for the Holocaust, Poles are furious because they know that is not true and then they may say something anti-Semitic in anger. This is how this spiral winds up, which confirms both sides in their beliefs.
What u mean "because Holocaust"? U mean its Holocaust happen in German Camp on territory Poland or the Poles make holocaust? Its was provoking question? I don't understand...
Shows how ignorant to the past Israelis that hate Poles are. I am a Canadian but my family came to Canada from Poland after the war, my grandparents risked the safety of the entire family as they were housing young jewish boy in their basement throughout the war, German SS took his family to concentration camps but the boy managed to escape and our family protected him until after the war when he was adopted by Jewish family and he moved to Australia. He was very thankful, kept in touch with our grandparents until they passed away. Pola d did so much for Jewish people during the war, it's sad to see that Jewish people don't or don't want to remember that.
Like, obviously, there were mostly good Poles in WW2, I got from this that barely any Israeli's harbored one iota of dislike for Poles and that some of them are grateful for the Poles who actually helped Jews hide from the Nazis. Not much hatred from Israeli's that I could see.
Last time I checked it was Germans and their Ukrainian mercenaries murdering Jews in Death Camps in Occupied Poland and it was the Polish government in exile who notified the Allies of the extermination of European Jews in their own country by the Germans. I am an Israeli Jew and I know this.

Israel Singer stated on April 19, 1996 that if Poland does not satisfy Jewish claims [heirless property, which is against the International and Polish Law, and hence EXTORTION], it will be "publicly attacked and humiliated" [It's not difficult when you own Hollywood and media]. A Polish publicist, Stanislaw Michalkiewicz has called Singer's declaration a "declaration of war against Poland". Even a Jewish publicist in Poland, Antoni Marianowicz, has objected to Singer's demands in the April 23, 1996 entry in his book: "This is simply preposterous; we in Poland have to reckon with the law and wait for suitable laws, and they {AMERICAN JEWS} demand everything right away. Often they are those who lived comfortably in the US, while their families were perishing here in the Holocaust. It's hard to imagine a more effective incitement of anti-Semitism."
$100Bn is still a ridiculously low price tag for the lives of hundreds thousand Jews turned over to Nazis by Polish smaltsovniks or murdered in immediate post-war pogroms!
Israel was founded in 1948... 6 million Poles died, most of them in camps... How many Israelis??? This is one of biggest fraud in modern history, by manipulation Israel used Polish victims as their own (and of course many other victims all around the Europe)... HOW MANY CITIZENS OF ISRAEL DIED in WWII WHEN THIS COUNTRY DIDN'T EVEN EXISTED BACK THEN !!!!!

"I know what role the Jewish communists played in post-war Poland. And just like me, as a Jew, I do not want to be responsible for Jewish communists, I can not accuse 36 million Poles for these several thousand szmalcowniki" - Simon Wiesenthal (szmalcownik - person who blackmailed Jews who were in hiding, or who blackmailed Poles who protected Jews during the German occupation).

I have Jews in my family in the US and even they were anti-Polish more than anti-German. I was not antisemite but those Jews who visit Poland make me so. This was a tragedy for both our societies and Jews forget about this. 😓
80% of us Jews don't hate Polish people. What happened in that generation happened but we can't hate people today for it whether they are Polish, Germans, French we don't hate people living in Poland now.You have good Polish people and bad Polish people the longer this rift continues The more we endanger the memory of the Holocaust in which both Jews and Poles alike were killed by Nazis. United we can confront Holocaust denial divided we both look like lying fools and the sacred memory of both Our Brethen dies with the last Concentration Camp survivor whether Polish or Jewish. Bury this hatchet or it will backfire horribly wrong.
I estimate that 97-98% of us do not hate Poland at all. The problem is that the media portrays Israel and the Jewish people as haters. Jews and Poles had Good times together and Bad times togethers. there should be no annimosity between us and them because of some issues that belong to the past
Im a polish jew and I think the way that this reporter ask about shoah in the context of polish people is a disgrace. Poland was the most welcome country in Europe who accepted Jews from western Europe by the King Kazimierz Wielki who was called as a protector of Jews. Only in Poland German nazis where giving the death penalty to poles who helped Jews , they were killing the whole families - read about history of Ulm Family (family of 2+8 who had been murdered for helping Jews) . Shalom to all people
Poland is a good nation. They are christians, conservatives and peaceful. There is no reason for hate. I think these kinds of questions are worthless. This can only create unnecessary fights among people. I am from Brazil. God bless Israel and Poland!
Why are you asking this question? Polish people (non jews) also lost their lives during the holocaust. They also helped to save lives during the holocaust.
This is very interesting because mostly polish jews are saying that Poles were even worse than Germans. Same time they were saved by the polish people and now they have families. It is very difficult to find an Israeli who is saying that Germans were worse simply because they are already dead and killed by Germans. This is how it is.
I took a holiday in the Baltic States and St Petersburg about 30 years ago, just after independence. OK it's not Poland but the impression I got is that there were a lot of non-nationals from other parts of the Soviet Union, and none of the various ethnic groups cared much for any of the others. Having grown up with the idea that they did not like Jews in Eastern Europe I concluded that people in that area did not care much for anyone but their own group. Ashkenazi Jews who lived in that area picked up the same attitudes, especially with their unique distribution from Estonia down to Bessarabia (Moldova). While it might not always stretch to hatred, distrust might be more a appropriate word. By way of example one can look to the relations between Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine in the interbellum period. It's also worth noting that until 1918 Poland was entirely occupied by Prussia (and subsequently Germany), by Czarist Russia and by Austria-Hungary. The whole area of Eastern Europe was a multi-cultural zone where the ruling powers were keen to assert their national interests, setting off one community against the other.
@Иосиф Виссарионович Сталин It was 1991 or 1992 when the three Baltic states had just achieved independence. I can't remember whether it was called St Petersburg or still Leningrad. I rented a flat in the suburbs for a week rather than staying in a hotel. I was an independent traveller in all four countries.
@Иосиф Виссарионович Сталин Possibly not by SU standards but I came from the UK where we had greater consciousness of such matters compared to those living in that corner of Eastern Europe, so long under the yoke of Soviet imperialism.
This video really misses the mark. The Germans committed atrocities against the the Jews all across Europe. Including Poland. The mere suggestion that the Poles had anything to do with it is offensive. The simple fact that so many jews lived in Poland in history should be somewhat of a testament to their character as a nation. And no, I am not Polish.
u need to read more about the holocaust in poland because you know nothing ..as it rude as im being its quite annoying to see people have a strong opinion on something they know nothing about
It seems to me that the author of this film does not know that the whole tragedy of the war took place in Poland Land. It does not mean that it was a tragedy caused by Poles. Before the war, there were many different nationalities in Poland (Jews, Gypsies, Germans, Russians) and this is the only reason why the tragedy happened in Poland land. Same time it was not caused by Poles, but by the Nazis who occupied Poland. I subscribe to comment below that : The Poles lived together with Jews for centuries and we fought together in the resistance.
History isn't black and white. Poles suffered greatly under the Nazi regime and many Poles risked their lives and helped save Jews. Unfortunately, there were also Poles who killed Jews and perpetrated antisemitic crimes, e.g. pogromes, even after the Nazis were defeated. The Polish society should also deal with the dark side of its history if it want's to prevent history from repeating itself.
read more about history which i wrote in other post (some were deleted) about history of XIX century or after WW1 , if you do not find my posts, i can paste you details again
Surely there were Polish people who helped Nazis, there were also Jews who collaborated with Nazis. It is a matter of scale - accusing Poland of participation in Holocaust is ridiculous. We have dealt with history, everyone knows there were collaborators, the problem is when the whole Polish nation is accused of collaboration.
holocaust survivor - Edward Mosberg, 93 years old said - israeli politicians are stupid, only Germany is guilt of holocaust and death camps, not Poland - but his speech was cut by israeli media , why ? because israeli politicians and jewish US organizations want money from Poland after Germany paid them , so they look for antisemitism they even cenzor real holocaust survivors - to feed antipolonism and demand money from another country

I do no like that you assume Poland was responsible for the Holocaust. This is not true. The responsible is only Germany. There were people in Poland and elsewhere who helped the Germans to commit their crime but we never voted for nazis in Poland. we were invaded and German killed Polish Jews here, also bringing up here Jews from other countries they invaded...
@@slawosz After the war the Polish government redistributed the assets and property of Polish Jewish citizens because there were so few left. Its time to make good on the return of these things. It is the ethical thing to do.
Linda Steckel Yes, the war ended in 1945 and the state Isreal was founded in 1948. According European Law ethnic doesn’t matter. These people were Polish citizens and paid taxes in Poland. Thats why their property’s we got.
You are suggesting that Poland as a nation and a state actively participated in the holocaust- this is misinformation and very harmful statement. Poland was a victim of this war as much as Jews were. Poland lost over 6 mln of citizens where half of them were Jews and half non Jews. Poland lost 20 % of its territory and has the biggest damages from all the countries participating in the war. It is very unfair to blame Poland for holocaust where they were attacked and occupied by Nazi Germany and civilians suffered tremendously. It was the only country where for hiding Jews was death penalty form the Nazis. But is also important to mention that Poland for centuries was a safe and tolerant place for Jewish settlers- that was a main reason why so many Jews were living in Poland. Also Poles saved the biggest number of Jews among all nations - check with your own institute Yad Vashem. I think your ultra right Israeli government is trying to make Poland look bad to cut you off from your roots. Because true is that many Jewish families now living in Israel have centuries of history living in Poland and this is where their true ancestry comes from.
There were good and bad people, hating nation as a whole is pretty stupid. But sheer atrocity and bloodlust wise, the bad poles pale in comparison to what their Hungarian and Western Ukrainian militias/SS volunteers did, my grandpa that served in the Red army said that those didn't even get a trial, just executed on spot.
@@UnownLeaf Main article: Collaboration in German-occupied Poland Polish resistance poster announcing the execution of several Polish collaborators and blackmailers (szmalcowniks), September 1943 Unlike the situation in other German-occupied European countries, where the Germans installed collaborationist authorities, in occupied Poland there was no puppet government.[74][75][76][77][78][79] Poland as a polity never surrendered to the Germans, instead evacuating its government and armed forces via Romania and Hungary and by sea to allied France and Great Britain,[80] while German-occupied Polish territory was either annexed outright by Nazi Germany or placed under German administration as the General Government.[81] Shortly after the German invasion of Poland, the Nazi authorities ordered the mobilization of prewar Polish officials and the Polish police (the Blue Police), who were forced, under penalty of death, to work for the German occupation authorities.[82] The primary task of the officials was to run the day-to-day administration of the occupied territories; and of the Blue Police, to act as a regular police force dealing with criminal activities. The Germans also used the Blue Police to combat smuggling and resistance and to round up (łapanka) random civilians for forced labor and to apprehend Jews (in German, Judenjagd, "hunting Jews").[83] While many officials and police reluctantly followed German orders, some acted as agents for the Polish resistance.[84][85] The Polish Underground State's wartime Special Courts investigated 17,000 Poles who collaborated with the Germans; about 3,500 were sentenced to death.[86][77] Some of the collaborators - szmalcowniks - blackmailed Jews and their Polish rescuers and assisted the Germans as informers, turning in Jews and Poles who hid them, and reporting on the Polish resistance.[87] Many prewar Polish citizens of German descent voluntarily declared themselves Volksdeutsche ("ethnic Germans"), and some of them committed atrocities against the Polish population and organized large-scale looting of property.[88][89] The Germans set up Jewish-run governing bodies in Jewish communities and ghettos - Judenräte (Jewish councils) that served as self-enforcing intermediaries for managing Jewish communities and ghettos; and Jewish ghetto police (Jüdischer Ordnungsdienst), which functioned as auxiliary police forces tasked with maintaining order and combating crime.[90] The Germans used the Judenrats to register Jews for deportation to ghettos;[91] and the Jewish ghetto police, to disrupt Jewish resistance in the ghettos and to facilitate deportation of Jews to German concentration camps.[90] Additionally, Jewish collaborationist groups such as Żagiew and Group 13 worked directly for the German Gestapo, informing on Polish resistance efforts to save Jews.[92][93]

I dont hate jews either for what they did to Poles after 2nd World war. But we have to remember what they did. They murderede Poles, and were commies who occupated poland til 89. I think it is problematic that jews are not aware of their past. But as it was said there are just good people and bad people. Gos bless you guys.

Father Kolbe was the one who created antisemitic newspaper (Rycerz Niepokalanej) before the war. Maybe his thinking changed while captured in Auschwitz, but we need to tell the whole strory - not only the one that is comforting our ears.
"Hate Poland??" I hope the question is provocatory in nature and serve just as means to make people think in deeper ways than usual - otherwise - go & ask the same question to the families of Men like Witold Pilecki and Jan Karski. PS. ...don't stay for the response, though - you wouldn't like it buddy...
First read some books or just get some info from internet before you ask people about history. Poland was the victim of Nazi German not aggressor, Why you ask people " Do you hate polish people because why they did"? And of course Jewish say not, because Polish people mostly helped Jews during the 2 war. that's the fact
Hello to all the followers of this amazing channel, First I saw the title of the video I asked myself Wow!! (a confusing Wow!!) because as a Tunisian I've ever thought that Polish people were side by side along with their "Jewish polish brothers" (if I may say) for the obvious thing they had the same ruthless Nazi enemy, but recently I've noticed a rising tension between Israel and Poland over a certain law which was about to get concluded by the Polish Parliament then I said to myself why would that make the Israelis angry then I realized that the root of the disputed law goes back to the WWII era, with no further due could someone savvy enough explain to me what's going on I'm really confused - I've been through a very tough journey of rethinking all the things that I've learned over my life about Israel, Jews, Zionism everything related to the matter because suddenly I've come to realize that all the things we've been taught in our schools were totally proportioned from the reality.
@@majktajsonik6942 actually no, Israel doesn't want money from Poland and it wasn't ever on the table here, the money from Germany was protested and almost all people were against taking it, but the govt decided to take it because of the state Israel was in at the time (poverty and all of the Holocaust survivors were stripped out of their property)
Wladysław Szpilman [The Pianist], Jewish: It was May [1942], and even in the gardens scattered few and far between throughout the ghetto, lilacs were in bloom. […] The Germans have once again been reminded that we exist, however with one small difference this time: they alone were not going to be managing us. THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EXECUTING THE ROUND-UPS HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED TO THE HANDS OF THE JEWISH POLICE AND THE JEWISH BOARD OF EMPLOYMENT. Henryk was right in refusing to join the ranks of the police calling them a BAND OF CRIMINALS. It was composed of mostly WELL-TO-DO YOUNG people. We used to move in the same social circles with many of them and, therefore, we are filled with even greater revulsion when we realize that these decent people of not so long ago whose hands we used to shake and whom we treated as friends have turned into rascals. They have become infected with the winds of the Gestapo. It seems the only way to describe it. The moment they donned their uniforms and took the clubs in their hands, they turned into animals… It was the JEWISH POLICE WHO MOST WILLINGLY AND EAGERLY EXECUTED THE GERMAN COMMANDS with regard to the deportations. The fact remains that, during the deportations, THE JEWISH POLICE DAILY EXCEEDED THEIR QUOTAS. This was referred to as stocking up your supply for the next day. The faces of these policemen did not reveal any sadness or pain at having to perform this repugnant job. Quite the contrary, they appeared proud, satisfied, cheerful, well-fed, loaded with the loot they had pillaged in concord with the Ukrainians. THE CRUELTY OF THE JEWISH POLICE WAS OFTEN FAR GREATER THAN THAT OF THE GERMANS, THE UKRAINIANS, OR THE LATVIANS. There were more than just a few hiding places that were “sniffed out” by the Jewish police. They always wanted to appear plus catholique que le pape in order to suck up themselves to their occupiers. The victims who managed to go unnoticed by a German were caught by a Jewish policeman. (…) Seeing what is happening in Palestine, I believe Wladyslaw Szpilman's words.
Coursera tunisia To give as simple answer as possible: In 1939, there were 3 million Jews in Poland. Roughly half of all Holocaust victims came from Polish territory. The Nazi occupation was brutal on every Polish citizen, not just Jews, though it was the Jews targeted for extermination. Many Poles, perhaps a majority, viewed the Jews as “not real Poles” because the Jews were not Catholic, spoke Yiddish (along with Polish), prayed in a strange foreign language (Hebrew) and were an ethnically distinct nation within Poland. This attitude was hardly unique to Poles. In the various nationalisms that engulfed Europe, Jews, who had always been “outsiders” religiously and culturally, were now also viewed outside the community of the nation-state. Hungarians in Czecholsavakia or Romania also were discriminated against so this wasn’t necessarily a prejudice uniquely directed only against . Any minority “nation” was viewed with suspicion and was discriminated. If you weren’t part of the ethnic “nation” even if you were a citizen, you would face discrimination and prejudice. Jews may have been Polish citizens but they weren’t considered as really Polish. So Jews faced discrimination in Poland and many Poles collaborated with the Germans in killing Jews. Jews who survived or who left Poland, thus left it with bad feelings towards the country. However, there is a flip side as well. Poles have the highest number of “righteous gentiles” meaning, non-Jews that the State of Israel has formally recognized as saving Jewish lives during the Holocaust. Many Poles did save Jews even though to do so would result in their own execution by the Nazi occupiers. When the Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto revolted, they raised two flags - one with the Magen David (Star or Shield of David) and the other, was that of the Polish Republic. So clearly, a great many Jews, even during this awful time, did have patriotic feelings for Poland. In recent times, Poland and Israel have had warm diplomatic relations. However, Poland also recently passed a law that many Poles find justified but many Jews and Israelis believe minimizes the role of Polish collaborators and Polish antisemitism. They may both be correct in my opinion. The Polish Government is correct in affirming that, for example, the Auschwitz Concentration Camp was not a “Polish Death Camp”. It was built and operated by the Germans, not the Polish. The only thing Polish about it was the location the Nazis chose. But Israelis are also right to feel that home-grown collaboration should not be banished from discussion.
Coursera tunisia - For centuries, jews were expelled from different countries and they migrated to Poland which was even called " Jewish paradise". Then during WWII Hitler chose Poland as the site of the extermination of Jews, since there were more jews in Poland than in any other European nation. Poland was the only country in Hitler-occupied Europe where to help a jew meant death penalty to the person who helped and their family, including children. Despite that, Polish people saved hundreds of thousands of Jews. There were occasional Polish people who collaborated with the germans, but this collaboration was punishable by death by Polish underground army. Now fast forward - these days the jewish organisations demand 300 miliard dollars ( initially 65 milliard dollars )from Poland as payment for the property of the jews that perished in Holocaust and did not leave heirs. In every country such heirless property goes to the state. Besides the amount is exorbitant. So the Jews announced that Poland will be repeatedly humiliated and accused of Holocaust until they pay the money off -see young-israeli-poland.blogspot.com/2008/02/singer-stated-on-april-19-1996-that-if.html I have to state that numerous Jews regained and keep regaining their prewar property in Poland when they apply through the Polish courts. And this is all the truth as I know it.
Coursera tunisia : Also throw in the fact, as far as compensations go, that Poland suffered greatly from the germans in WWII yet Poland did not receive any compensation from Germany, because all the German money went to compensate the Jews.
I hope one day (rather soon) Israel and Poland will be a close friends as they should be. There is a very long history of Jewish people living and blossoming in Poland. Hardly any other two countries have so much in common. There should be close cooperation in all fields between two nations: education, science, culture, politics. History can certainly brings some good and bad memories but overall there were more good than bad.
Learn a little bit of history before you ask such stupid questions... And if you can't learn it from a reliable source then ask some old Polish people who lived during the II WW how it looked like and who did it. But anyway, I don't think and never did think that Jews are against me... You say that "Polish people think Jews hate them". What Polish people? I'm Polish and I never said anything like that. I respect Judaism, I consider it to be one of the most logical religions in the world, I enjoy watching and listening to rabbis and I'm Pole and not a Jew (in fact I'm much closer to paganism, so...). There are some Poles who hate Jews, some who hate Russians, some who hate Germans and what's the point of it? There are also some English people who hate Poles and other immigrants. Does it mean all of them are like that? I have long hair and there are some people having short hair who hate me because of my long hair. Does it mean that all the people with short hair hate me? :D Come on... Grow up!
My grandfather and grandmother are holocaust survivors who in fact were there... they say that the polish pepole were the worst, more then the Germans. I also heard a lot of holocaust survivors who said that too.
@@qgilor7752Yeah.... and who built the death camps? I thought Germans did it on Polish soil and few other countries. Are you sure Poles were worse? I guess your granparents just knew only Poles and they were angry because of some people. I'm also sure that there were Poles who helped them too. Jewish people couldn't survive without Polish help. Polish gorvernemt tried to help and do something but the rest of the world didn't want to help.

Plz ask this to Israelis: In 1946, 85-90% of the land belonged to Palestinian Arabs. In 2015, 85-90% of the land belongs to Israeli jews!! And it's even more now in 2019... How is that not a clear occupation of territory for any neutral person???
I believe that the idea of hating a people is religiously forbidden to jews. So this question is like asking someone if they are a bad jew or not. No one wants that. The lady who said 'lets take ate out of our lexicon' had the emotion right. She didn't like the poles, she didn't interact with them them. Hating people in general is unhealthy All the rest of them had religion kind of tight. There are good people, there are bad people. And the government of Poland is doing no one a favor by white washing the actions of large numbers of poles. But it was also true that there were folks that the last person knew, who had rescued people. Both kinds were there
"I believe that the idea of hating a people is religiously forbidden to jews" You should read the Torah. Never heard of the Amalek? It a religious duty for Jews to genocide them.
@@gregdenys7162 It was for a certain people in certain and for a reason not of hate(if Jews will not erase the Amalakites they and thier descendents would be the spearhead for Jewish destruction and death)
Corey it's not the first time I hear you saying "Polania". It makes my ears hurt...In hebrew it's "פולין" Polin....It's like hearing someone say "Francia" or "Japana"...You would understand it but it is really annoying, especially when they correct you at 0:07
It's actually impressive how Corey speaks fluent Hebrew and yet still can't remember the word for Poland :P Especially since you can hear about Poland quite often, in the media and whatnot
I can understand older generation of jews dislike of Poland because of what happened in German occupied Poland. I liked that Poland opened the door for Filipino job seekers. Thanks Poles :)
Yet a ZioZombie like yourself can't understand the Palestinian dislike of Zionism/Israel esp when Nazism and Zionism are virtually identical in ideology and actions, only the method differs.
@C caymer Zionists and Nazis have identical justifications for their criminal actions. .... nearly word for word. That is why the neo-nazis and white supremacists everywhere, though they may hate Jews, love the racist Israeli ethnostate model of a nation-state.
@@anthonyr963 It is obvious you are a "Know Nothing American ZioZombie". And if you didn't know, the current Polish regime is a right-wing neo-nazi government which literally hates Jews.
I like fascism. Our country got invaded by fascists but now I have realized that fascism is truth to succes. The genocide does not represent fascism. It is the same misconception like assuming that zionism and judaism are exactly the same, which is not of course.
@Alex Yes in some way it is. But fascism in europe can't be about land which is not theirs. for example if you kick out illegal immigrants. So for example illegal Egyptians in England get send back to Egypt , then that is different as what Israel does.
A question "do you hate Poles for holocaust" implies that Poles killed 3 Millions Jews not Nazi Germany.
It is ridiculous and offensive for Poland.
Poles was very antisemitic. But the truth is almost all of Europe in that time collaborated with Hitler in one way or another - in France it was Vichy of Petain, in Italy Mussolini, in Spain a friend of Hitler Franco, the Hungary and Romania collaborted. Ukraine, Bulgaria and Croatia. Norway. They all was sending Jews to concentration camps in Poland. All of Europe should be blamed for Holokaust. And we see almost no one is ashamed, maybe only Germany - everywhere else the far-right emerges, Le Pen, Meloni, Orban. They all are flirting with history and symbols of nazism.
Poles didn't killed jews
I wouldn't be alive if other Polish people didn't help my great-grandmother and other Jewish people. It's hard to understand how some Jewish spread anti-polonism. Especially that so many of us living in Poland are of Jewish ancestry. We lived together on the same land for centuries. Poland is a tolerant country for all religions and minorities as long as they obey law and reside in Poland legally. I can't understand some Jewish people nowadays.
Poles and people from many other European nations (Hungarians, Estonians, etc.) collaborated with the Naz*s. After the Hol*caust, there were two pogr*ms in Poland (in August 1945 in Kraków and in July 1946 in Kielce).
Jews also collaborate with the Germans when they could… you have no point
The Poles lived together with Jews for centuries and we fought together in the resistance. The Polish Army supplied the Jewish insurgencies in Warsaw, Belerus, etc. I'm from Israel and I love and respect the Poles. They were victims themselves. 3 million Catholic Poles died. We must not forget them.

I do not understand the moment of 1:58 in which you want to say, "Do you hate them for what they did?" Or "You hate all Poles?" A person who knows history knows that "they" are German Nazis, only in Poland was the death penalty for concealing Jews, yet the greatest number of Righteous Among Nations is from Poland.
First read the topic, then ask others for opinion. How can you do an interview without preparation.
before the Holocaust, Antisemitism was rampant in Poland. And in today's Poland, many ppl in Poland are anti-semitic to the core.
I'm a middle eastern Arab atheist, I've seen anti-semitism run high within the Arab especially the Muslim community but I kinda understand it considering the recent history of the recent Arab-Israeli conflict. but I can't wrap my head around why some ppl in Poland are anti-semitic, t seems to me that polish jews were good citizens who shared the same atrocities with other poles done to them by the Nazis.
Yeah, me neither. Did he forget that there was death penalty in Poland for collaboration with German nazis? Clearly he did.
@@majktajsonik6942 I think the reason is there were many Poles who supported the Nazis while many others opposed them. However, as you may know human memory is more easily focused on bad experiences than good ones for genetic reasons. It was more important for the survival of human beings and other animal during our evolution process to memorize what plants, animals and other humans beings can be harmful to their existence. Some snakes may be dangerous while others are not but most of us have brains naturally conditioned to alert us against all of them, specially if we already a bad experience with any of them.
@Ashkenazi Dissident Right Yes, of course we can think critically but that doesn't change the fact that many of your thoughts are solely based on your own personal experience. Hence, if the only people of any specific ethnic group or nation you met tried to harm you, it's not surprising that your initial impression of their whole ethnic group is negative.

Zionists can not differentiate between the modern concept of the nation-state, national identity, ethnic identity and religious identity. For Zionists "Jews" are a race, ethnicity, nationality and a religion...poor confused souls.

אז תחזרי לשם שמאלנית מטומטמת.
Poland have nothing to do with holocaust, the country at that sad time was under occupation. Natzi Germany did it, before that Jews people lived happy life in Poland since centuries...
I've noticed that Jewish people very rarely express animosity for any ethnic group, and this is a VERY admirable trait. I had a wonderful friend, Eleanor, like a family member, of blessed memory, who went through Auschwitz, the death march, experienced the worst of the worst. She NEVER expressed hatred towards ANY group of people, not the Germans, not the Poles. She used to tell me to judge every person on their own merit, and that "not all Germans were Nazis and not all Nazis were German." I will remember her words always. Wish I could tell Eleanor how much I love her. She was a light in the darkness.
When Jews say that Poles were responsible for the Holocaust, Poles are furious because they know that is not true and then they may say something anti-Semitic in anger. This is how this spiral winds up, which confirms both sides in their beliefs.
What u mean "because Holocaust"? U mean its Holocaust happen in German Camp on territory Poland or the Poles make holocaust? Its was provoking question? I don't understand...
Respect. Most poles iv met were great guys and were very pro western and pro israel.
Shows how ignorant to the past Israelis that hate Poles are.
I am a Canadian but my family came to Canada from Poland after the war, my grandparents risked the safety of the entire family as they were housing young jewish boy in their basement throughout the war, German SS took his family to concentration camps but the boy managed to escape and our family protected him until after the war when he was adopted by Jewish family and he moved to Australia.
He was very thankful, kept in touch with our grandparents until they passed away. Pola d did so much for Jewish people during the war, it's sad to see that Jewish people don't or don't want to remember that.
Like, obviously, there were mostly good Poles in WW2, I got from this that barely any Israeli's harbored one iota of dislike for Poles and that some of them are grateful for the Poles who actually helped Jews hide from the Nazis. Not much hatred from Israeli's that I could see.
As 50,000,000 South Korean people,
we all love Israel and Poland
because both of them are the most simillar countries with South Korea on the earth!
What are you talking about? We were not responsible for the holocaust
Last time I checked it was Germans and their Ukrainian mercenaries murdering Jews in Death Camps in Occupied Poland and it was the Polish government in exile who notified the Allies of the extermination of European Jews in their own country by the Germans. I am an Israeli Jew and I know this.
I'm Polish, once I worked with an Israeli cook on summer camp in USA. He asked me once, "why they teach you in Poland to hate Jews?". I couldn't believe!
there’s a lot of misconceptions and i hope we all overcome them

Jews lived in Poland for 800 years..
1. Polish people saved the most Jews during II Wolrd War
2. 8-9 million of Polish people were killed
3. Many Polish people were executed because they tried to hide Jews
4. Of course many Polish people impacted on the death of Jewish people ....however what nation in occupied Europe has not done it? None
The question is have ever Jewish people done anything great for Poles what Poles have done for Jewish people? The answer is NO so please be grateful what the Polish nation have done for existing Israel and Jewish people itself. We saved thousands of lives during the most horrific period of human history ....obviously we could have done better but it is war.

Israel Singer stated on April 19, 1996 that if Poland does not satisfy Jewish claims [heirless property, which is against the International and Polish Law, and hence EXTORTION], it will be "publicly attacked and humiliated" [It's not difficult when you own Hollywood and media]. A Polish publicist, Stanislaw Michalkiewicz has called Singer's declaration a "declaration of war against Poland".
Even a Jewish publicist in Poland, Antoni Marianowicz, has objected to Singer's demands in the April 23, 1996 entry in his book:
"This is simply preposterous; we in Poland have to reckon with the law and wait for suitable laws, and they {AMERICAN JEWS} demand everything right away. Often they are those who lived comfortably in the US, while their families were perishing here in the Holocaust. It's hard to imagine a more effective incitement of anti-Semitism."

But, Why Palestine Hates Poland!
"I know what role the Jewish communists played in post-war Poland. And just like me, as a Jew, I do not want to be responsible for Jewish communists, I can not accuse 36 million Poles for these several thousand szmalcowniki" - Simon Wiesenthal (szmalcownik - person who blackmailed Jews who were in hiding, or who blackmailed Poles who protected Jews during the German occupation).
I live in small Polish city called Tarnów which population before the war was 40% jewish. Today they come to my city from Israel as a part of obligatory trip, but they act very racist towards Polish. They behave as a main victims but forget that Jews who died in Poland were also Polish people... they didn't came just for a war to Poland but lived here for a ceuntries and now most of Jewish forget about it and behave in very ungrateful way... I have Jews in my family in the US and even they were anti-Polish more than anti-German. I was not antisemite but those Jews who visit Poland make me so. This was a tragedy for both our societies and Jews forget about this. 😓
Dude who ask question is not schooled... Omfg how come someone Say that 1:57 how ignorat it is
Simple Logic: There're good people and bad ones in every country. Period.
Most jews are evil People. They killed 400 ths polish People
Why dont you ask: Do you hate Germany?
they dont hate
80% of us Jews don't hate Polish people. What happened in that generation happened but we can't hate people today for it whether they are Polish, Germans, French we don't hate people living in Poland now.You have good Polish people and bad Polish people the longer this rift continues The more we endanger the memory of the Holocaust in which both Jews and Poles alike were killed by Nazis. United we can confront Holocaust denial divided we both look like lying fools and the sacred memory of both Our Brethen dies with the last Concentration Camp survivor whether Polish or Jewish. Bury this hatchet or it will backfire horribly wrong.
I estimate that 97-98% of us do not hate Poland at all. The problem is that the media portrays Israel and the Jewish people as haters. Jews and Poles had Good times together and Bad times togethers. there should be no annimosity between us and them because of some issues that belong to the past
@@ShimshonTheGreat I agree with that sentiment.

The whole true is the money and where money is, is the true. Let the crowd die make a group rich.
Im a polish jew and I think the way that this reporter ask about shoah in the context of polish people is a disgrace. Poland was the most welcome country in Europe who accepted Jews from western Europe by the King Kazimierz Wielki who was called as a protector of Jews. Only in Poland German nazis where giving the death penalty to poles who helped Jews , they were killing the whole families - read about history of Ulm Family (family of 2+8 who had been murdered for helping Jews) . Shalom to all people
Poland is a good nation. They are christians, conservatives and peaceful. There is no reason for hate. I think these kinds of questions are worthless. This can only create unnecessary fights among people. I am from Brazil. God bless Israel and Poland!
when I see the statements of under-educated Jews, I regret that my grandfather was sentenced to death for saving them
Why are you asking this question? Polish people (non jews) also lost their lives during the holocaust. They also helped to save lives during the holocaust.
This is very interesting because mostly polish jews are saying that Poles were even worse than Germans. Same time they were saved by the polish people and now they have families. It is very difficult to find an Israeli who is saying that Germans were worse simply because they are already dead and killed by Germans. This is how it is.
I took a holiday in the Baltic States and St Petersburg about 30 years ago, just after independence. OK it's not Poland but the impression I got is that there were a lot of non-nationals from other parts of the Soviet Union, and none of the various ethnic groups cared much for any of the others.
Having grown up with the idea that they did not like Jews in Eastern Europe I concluded that people in that area did not care much for anyone but their own group. Ashkenazi Jews who lived in that area picked up the same attitudes, especially with their unique distribution from Estonia down to Bessarabia (Moldova). While it might not always stretch to hatred, distrust might be more a appropriate word. By way of example one can look to the relations between Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine in the interbellum period.
It's also worth noting that until 1918 Poland was entirely occupied by Prussia (and subsequently Germany), by Czarist Russia and by Austria-Hungary. The whole area of Eastern Europe was a multi-cultural zone where the ruling powers were keen to assert their national interests, setting off one community against the other.
@Иосиф Виссарионович Сталин It was 1991 or 1992 when the three Baltic states had just achieved independence. I can't remember whether it was called St Petersburg or still Leningrad. I rented a flat in the suburbs for a week rather than staying in a hotel. I was an independent traveller in all four countries.
@Иосиф Виссарионович Сталин Possibly not by SU standards but I came from the UK where we had greater consciousness of such matters compared to those living in that corner of Eastern Europe, so long under the yoke of Soviet imperialism.
This video really misses the mark. The Germans committed atrocities against the the Jews all across Europe. Including Poland. The mere suggestion that the Poles had anything to do with it is offensive.
The simple fact that so many jews lived in Poland in history should be somewhat of a testament to their character as a nation.
And no, I am not Polish.
What you said is what most ppl said in the clip. Corey asks questions sent to him , including the really silly ones :)
u need to read more about the holocaust in poland because you know nothing ..as it rude as im being its quite annoying to see people have a strong opinion on something they know nothing about
It seems to me that the author of this film does not know that the whole tragedy of the war took place in Poland Land.
It does not mean that it was a tragedy caused by Poles. Before the war, there were many different nationalities in Poland (Jews, Gypsies, Germans, Russians)
and this is the only reason why the tragedy happened in Poland land. Same time it was not caused by Poles, but by the Nazis who occupied Poland.
I subscribe to comment below that : The Poles lived together with Jews for centuries and we fought together in the resistance.
Are you misinformed or hateful towards Poles implicating their responsibility for German crimes and atrocities...?
History isn't black and white. Poles suffered greatly under the Nazi regime and many Poles risked their lives and helped save Jews. Unfortunately, there were also Poles who killed Jews and perpetrated antisemitic crimes, e.g. pogromes, even after the Nazis were defeated. The Polish society should also deal with the dark side of its history if it want's to prevent history from repeating itself.
read more about history which i wrote in other post (some were deleted) about history of XIX century or after WW1 , if you do not find my posts, i can paste you details again
Surely there were Polish people who helped Nazis, there were also Jews who collaborated with Nazis. It is a matter of scale - accusing Poland of participation in Holocaust is ridiculous. We have dealt with history, everyone knows there were collaborators, the problem is when the whole Polish nation is accused of collaboration.

Not easy money. Just the legitimate return of assets and property belonging to Jews in the war that was stolen by their Polish neighbors.
The current PM certainly is; and the former too, for that matter.
Linda Steckel They were Polish citizens, so their property took government.
@@slawosz After the war the Polish government redistributed the assets and property of Polish Jewish citizens because there were so few left. Its time to make good on the return of these things. It is the ethical thing to do.
Linda Steckel Yes, the war ended in 1945 and the state Isreal was founded in 1948. According European Law ethnic doesn’t matter. These people were Polish citizens and paid taxes in Poland. Thats why their property’s we got.
Poland People rescued jews
You are suggesting that Poland as a nation and a state actively participated in the holocaust- this is misinformation and very harmful statement. Poland was a victim of this war as much as Jews were. Poland lost over 6 mln of citizens where half of them were Jews and half non Jews. Poland lost 20 % of its territory and has the biggest damages from all the countries participating in the war. It is very unfair to blame Poland for holocaust where they were attacked and occupied by Nazi Germany and civilians suffered tremendously. It was the only country where for hiding Jews was death penalty form the Nazis. But is also important to mention that Poland for centuries was a safe and tolerant place for Jewish settlers- that was a main reason why so many Jews were living in Poland. Also Poles saved the biggest number of Jews among all nations - check with your own institute Yad Vashem. I think your ultra right Israeli government is trying to make Poland look bad to cut you off from your roots. Because true is that many Jewish families now living in Israel have centuries of history living in Poland and this is where their true ancestry comes from.

@@UnownLeaf Main article: Collaboration in German-occupied Poland
Polish resistance poster announcing the execution of several Polish collaborators and blackmailers (szmalcowniks), September 1943
Unlike the situation in other German-occupied European countries, where the Germans installed collaborationist authorities, in occupied Poland there was no puppet government.[74][75][76][77][78][79] Poland as a polity never surrendered to the Germans, instead evacuating its government and armed forces via Romania and Hungary and by sea to allied France and Great Britain,[80] while German-occupied Polish territory was either annexed outright by Nazi Germany or placed under German administration as the General Government.[81]
Shortly after the German invasion of Poland, the Nazi authorities ordered the mobilization of prewar Polish officials and the Polish police (the Blue Police), who were forced, under penalty of death, to work for the German occupation authorities.[82] The primary task of the officials was to run the day-to-day administration of the occupied territories; and of the Blue Police, to act as a regular police force dealing with criminal activities. The Germans also used the Blue Police to combat smuggling and resistance and to round up (łapanka) random civilians for forced labor and to apprehend Jews (in German, Judenjagd, "hunting Jews").[83] While many officials and police reluctantly followed German orders, some acted as agents for the Polish resistance.[84][85]
The Polish Underground State's wartime Special Courts investigated 17,000 Poles who collaborated with the Germans; about 3,500 were sentenced to death.[86][77] Some of the collaborators - szmalcowniks - blackmailed Jews and their Polish rescuers and assisted the Germans as informers, turning in Jews and Poles who hid them, and reporting on the Polish resistance.[87]
Many prewar Polish citizens of German descent voluntarily declared themselves Volksdeutsche ("ethnic Germans"), and some of them committed atrocities against the Polish population and organized large-scale looting of property.[88][89]
The Germans set up Jewish-run governing bodies in Jewish communities and ghettos - Judenräte (Jewish councils) that served as self-enforcing intermediaries for managing Jewish communities and ghettos; and Jewish ghetto police (Jüdischer Ordnungsdienst), which functioned as auxiliary police forces tasked with maintaining order and combating crime.[90] The Germans used the Judenrats to register Jews for deportation to ghettos;[91] and the Jewish ghetto police, to disrupt Jewish resistance in the ghettos and to facilitate deportation of Jews to German concentration camps.[90] Additionally, Jewish collaborationist groups such as Żagiew and Group 13 worked directly for the German Gestapo, informing on Polish resistance efforts to save Jews.[92][93]

PS. ...don't stay for the response, though - you wouldn't like it buddy...
First read some books or just get some info from internet before you ask people about history. Poland was the victim of Nazi German not aggressor, Why you ask people " Do you hate polish people because why they did"? And of course Jewish say not, because Polish people mostly helped Jews during the 2 war. that's the fact
Hello to all the followers of this amazing channel, First I saw the title of the video I asked myself Wow!! (a confusing Wow!!) because as a Tunisian I've ever thought that Polish people were side by side along with their "Jewish polish brothers" (if I may say) for the obvious thing they had the same ruthless Nazi enemy, but recently I've noticed a rising tension between Israel and Poland over a certain law which was about to get concluded by the Polish Parliament then I said to myself why would that make the Israelis angry then I realized that the root of the disputed law goes back to the WWII era, with no further due could someone savvy enough explain to me what's going on I'm really confused - I've been through a very tough journey of rethinking all the things that I've learned over my life about Israel, Jews, Zionism everything related to the matter because suddenly I've come to realize that all the things we've been taught in our schools were totally proportioned from the reality.
@@majktajsonik6942 actually no, Israel doesn't want money from Poland and it wasn't ever on the table here, the money from Germany was protested and almost all people were against taking it, but the govt decided to take it because of the state Israel was in at the time (poverty and all of the Holocaust survivors were stripped out of their property)
Wladysław Szpilman [The Pianist], Jewish:
It was May [1942], and even in the gardens scattered few and far between throughout the ghetto, lilacs were in bloom. […] The Germans have once again been reminded that we exist, however with one small difference this time: they alone were not going to be managing us. THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EXECUTING THE ROUND-UPS HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED TO THE HANDS OF THE JEWISH POLICE AND THE JEWISH BOARD OF EMPLOYMENT. Henryk was right in refusing to join the ranks of the police calling them a BAND OF CRIMINALS. It was composed of mostly WELL-TO-DO YOUNG people. We used to move in the same social circles with many of them and, therefore, we are filled with even greater revulsion when we realize that these decent people of not so long ago whose hands we used to shake and whom we treated as friends have turned into rascals. They have become infected with the winds of the Gestapo. It seems the only way to describe it. The moment they donned their uniforms and took the clubs in their hands, they turned into animals…
It was the JEWISH POLICE WHO MOST WILLINGLY AND EAGERLY EXECUTED THE GERMAN COMMANDS with regard to the deportations. The fact remains that, during the deportations, THE JEWISH POLICE DAILY EXCEEDED THEIR QUOTAS. This was referred to as stocking up your supply for the next day. The faces of these policemen did not reveal any sadness or pain at having to perform this repugnant job. Quite the contrary, they appeared proud, satisfied, cheerful, well-fed, loaded with the loot they had pillaged in concord with the Ukrainians. THE CRUELTY OF THE JEWISH POLICE WAS OFTEN FAR GREATER THAN THAT OF THE GERMANS, THE UKRAINIANS, OR THE LATVIANS. There were more than just a few hiding places that were “sniffed out” by the Jewish police. They always wanted to appear plus catholique que le pape in order to suck up themselves to their occupiers. The victims who managed to go unnoticed by a German were caught by a Jewish policeman. (…)
Seeing what is happening in Palestine, I believe Wladyslaw Szpilman's words.
Coursera tunisia To give as simple answer as possible:
In 1939, there were 3 million Jews in Poland. Roughly half of all Holocaust victims came from Polish territory. The Nazi occupation was brutal on every Polish citizen, not just Jews, though it was the Jews targeted for extermination.
Many Poles, perhaps a majority, viewed the Jews as “not real Poles” because the Jews were not Catholic, spoke Yiddish (along with Polish), prayed in a strange foreign language (Hebrew) and were an ethnically distinct nation within Poland. This attitude was hardly unique to Poles. In the various nationalisms that engulfed Europe, Jews, who had always been “outsiders” religiously and culturally, were now also viewed outside the community of the nation-state. Hungarians in Czecholsavakia or Romania also were discriminated against so this wasn’t necessarily a prejudice uniquely directed only against . Any minority “nation” was viewed with suspicion and was discriminated. If you weren’t part of the ethnic “nation” even if you were a citizen, you would face discrimination and prejudice. Jews may have been Polish citizens but they weren’t considered as really Polish.
So Jews faced discrimination in Poland and many Poles collaborated with the Germans in killing Jews. Jews who survived or who left Poland, thus left it with bad feelings towards the country.
However, there is a flip side as well. Poles have the highest number of “righteous gentiles” meaning, non-Jews that the State of Israel has formally recognized as saving Jewish lives during the Holocaust. Many Poles did save Jews even though to do so would result in their own execution by the Nazi occupiers. When the Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto revolted, they raised two flags - one with the Magen David (Star or Shield of David) and the other, was that of the Polish Republic. So clearly, a great many Jews, even during this awful time, did have patriotic feelings for Poland.
In recent times, Poland and Israel have had warm diplomatic relations. However, Poland also recently passed a law that many Poles find justified but many Jews and Israelis believe minimizes the role of Polish collaborators and Polish antisemitism.
They may both be correct in my opinion. The Polish Government is correct in affirming that, for example, the Auschwitz Concentration Camp was not a “Polish Death Camp”. It was built and operated by the Germans, not the Polish. The only thing Polish about it was the location the Nazis chose. But Israelis are also right to feel that home-grown collaboration should not be banished from discussion.
Coursera tunisia - For centuries, jews were expelled from different countries and they migrated to Poland which was even called " Jewish paradise".
Then during WWII Hitler chose Poland as the site of the extermination of Jews, since there were more jews in Poland than in any other European nation.
Poland was the only country in Hitler-occupied Europe where to help a jew meant death penalty to the person who helped and their family, including children. Despite that, Polish people saved hundreds of thousands of Jews.
There were occasional Polish people who collaborated with the germans, but this collaboration was punishable by death by Polish underground army.
Now fast forward - these days the jewish organisations demand 300 miliard dollars ( initially 65 milliard dollars )from Poland as payment for the property of the jews that perished in Holocaust and did not leave heirs. In every country such heirless property goes to the state.
Besides the amount is exorbitant. So the Jews announced that Poland will be repeatedly humiliated and accused of Holocaust until they pay the money off -see young-israeli-poland.blogspot.com/2008/02/singer-stated-on-april-19-1996-that-if.html
I have to state that numerous Jews regained and keep regaining their prewar property in Poland when they apply through the Polish courts.
And this is all the truth as I know it.
Coursera tunisia :
Also throw in the fact, as far as compensations go, that Poland suffered greatly from the germans in WWII yet Poland did not receive any compensation from Germany, because all the German money went to compensate the Jews.
emm i think the interviewer took too much drugs and thinks poland started ww2
I hope one day (rather soon) Israel and Poland will be a close friends as they should be. There is a very long history of Jewish people living and blossoming in Poland. Hardly any other two countries have so much in common. There should be close cooperation in all fields between two nations: education, science, culture, politics. History can certainly brings some good and bad memories but overall there were more good than bad.
yes❤️
And it is 2023 now, and we are much closer friends now. Hard times in Ukraine keep us closer to our Israeli friends. You are always welcome in Poland.
That nation of collaborators has audacity to accuse anyone of collaboration?
Learn a little bit of history before you ask such stupid questions... And if you can't learn it from a reliable source then ask some old Polish people who lived during the II WW how it looked like and who did it. But anyway, I don't think and never did think that Jews are against me... You say that "Polish people think Jews hate them". What Polish people? I'm Polish and I never said anything like that. I respect Judaism, I consider it to be one of the most logical religions in the world, I enjoy watching and listening to rabbis and I'm Pole and not a Jew (in fact I'm much closer to paganism, so...). There are some Poles who hate Jews, some who hate Russians, some who hate Germans and what's the point of it? There are also some English people who hate Poles and other immigrants. Does it mean all of them are like that? I have long hair and there are some people having short hair who hate me because of my long hair. Does it mean that all the people with short hair hate me? :D Come on... Grow up!
the question asked by poles. religion and logic don't walk the walk.
Ask about Germans!
Wtf 2:25 lady go to school
My grandfather and grandmother are holocaust survivors who in fact were there... they say that the polish pepole were the worst, more then the Germans. I also heard a lot of holocaust survivors who said that too.
@@qgilor7752Yeah.... and who built the death camps? I thought Germans did it on Polish soil and few other countries. Are you sure Poles were worse? I guess your granparents just knew only Poles and they were angry because of some people. I'm also sure that there were Poles who helped them too. Jewish people couldn't survive without Polish help. Polish gorvernemt tried to help and do something but the rest of the world didn't want to help.
when i am logged in - i see my comment, when i am logged out - i do not see - means ... cenzorship and one comment is hidden, why ? because i talk about Poles who lost property due to commies and USSR ?
Plz ask this to Israelis:
In 1946, 85-90% of the land belonged to Palestinian Arabs. In 2015, 85-90% of the land belongs to Israeli jews!! And it's even more now in 2019...
How is that not a clear occupation of territory for any neutral person???
In 1940 86% of europe was german occupied , but in 2019 only 12% is held by germany . How is this not euopean occupation?
4:26 BRO???!?!?!
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
I believe that the idea of hating a people is religiously forbidden to jews. So this question is like asking someone if they are a bad jew or not. No one wants that. The lady who said 'lets take ate out of our lexicon' had the emotion right. She didn't like the poles, she didn't interact with them them. Hating people in general is unhealthy
All the rest of them had religion kind of tight. There are good people, there are bad people. And the government of Poland is doing no one a favor by white washing the actions of large numbers of poles. But it was also true that there were folks that the last person knew, who had rescued people. Both kinds were there
"I believe that the idea of hating a people is religiously forbidden to jews"
You should read the Torah. Never heard of the Amalek? It a religious duty for Jews to genocide them.
@@gregdenys7162 It was for a certain people in certain and for a reason not of hate(if Jews will not erase the Amalakites they and thier descendents would be the spearhead for Jewish destruction and death)
read again your Bible please
@@gregdenys7162 No you moron its a duty to remember what they did to Israel as it left Egypt.
Dont read the comments. Reading them will just take your time, give you a wrinkle, a couple of grey hairs and a decreased faith in humanity.
Watching this video does the very same thing
Corey it's not the first time I hear you saying "Polania". It makes my ears hurt...In hebrew it's "פולין" Polin....It's like hearing someone say "Francia" or "Japana"...You would understand it but it is really annoying, especially when they correct you at 0:07
It's actually impressive how Corey speaks fluent Hebrew and yet still can't remember the word for Poland :P Especially since you can hear about Poland quite often, in the media and whatnot
Benur Anouk I studied hebrew and the teacher told me that "Poland" in hebrew is also "Polania" not only "Polin".
wouldn’t it be more sense to ask if they hated germans? the nazis weren’t polish they invaded poland i’m confused...
He is just asking them questions that his viewers ask. A few Polish people asked him that question..
I can understand older generation of jews dislike of Poland because of what happened in German occupied Poland.
I liked that Poland opened the door for Filipino job seekers. Thanks Poles :)
Yet a ZioZombie like yourself can't understand the Palestinian dislike of Zionism/Israel esp when Nazism and Zionism are virtually identical in ideology and actions, only the method differs.
@C caymer I'm half Filipino and Italian.
@C caymer I was born and still am in the US. Did you think I was in Europe?
@C caymer Zionists and Nazis have identical justifications for their criminal actions. .... nearly word for word.
That is why the neo-nazis and white supremacists everywhere, though they may hate Jews, love the racist Israeli ethnostate model of a nation-state.
@@anthonyr963 It is obvious you are a "Know Nothing American ZioZombie". And if you didn't know, the current Polish regime is a right-wing neo-nazi government which literally hates Jews.
I like fascism.
Our country got invaded by fascists but now I have realized that fascism is truth to succes.
The genocide does not represent fascism.
It is the same misconception like assuming that zionism and judaism are exactly the same, which is not of course.
@C caymer I don't like Turkey and Turks in general , but at least they are a secular country
@Alex Yes in some way it is.
But fascism in europe can't be about land which is not theirs. for example if you kick out illegal immigrants. So for example illegal Egyptians in England get send back to Egypt , then that is different as what Israel does.
