1. War vs- Poland by force of libel, slander, defamation.

February 7, 1996

What recourse does a NATION have against libel, slander and defamation? Wherever mass media reaches, the Polish nation and citizens of Polish descent, are under an assault in an ongoing campaign, e.g.:

1.) On May 10, 1993, Time Magazine published that "many Poles served in Hitler's SS [...] Going public to collect pensions from the German government. [...] Do these Nazis deserve cash benefits?" Unable to substantiate its claim entirely and after 18 months of objections from outraged Poles, on November 21, 1994, TIME published a wishy washy 'We regret the error'. Meantime, many people believed the falsehood and educators used it in classrooms.

2.) On January 1, 1994, the New York Times in an article titled Victims of Bias Try to Guide Skinheads Off Road of Hate, describes an anti-hate lesson to a group of youths at the Wiesenthal Center's Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles (funded by U.S. taxpayers, - another $5,000,000 recently). This article includes: "Mr. Frumkin, a 63-year-old native of Lithuania who was held at the Dachau concentration camp in Poland, related some of his experiences and said: "I hope to God you don't waste your lives hating. It's pointless."" - Dachau is not in Poland, it is in Germany. This NYT article was later included by the Wiesenthal Center in its mass-mailed-fund-raising letter bewailing the evils of hate!! The only connection of the camp to Poland was that Poles, including Polish Catholic priests, were imprisoned and murdered there. Neither the NYT nor the Wiesenthal Center published a correction nor an apology.

3.) On September 16, 1994, The Pilot, a Boston Catholic paper published: "At a reception for 190 Bostonians at the Holocaust Museum, Washington, D.C. (referring to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum funded by the U.S. taxpayers) "A Survivor's Story" -- Irene Weiss of Washington, D.C. tells the story of her years in Poland's Buchenwald concentration camp and how as a teenager she managed to survive the horrors of prison life." - Buchenwald is not in Poland, it is in Germany.

4.) On April 3, 1995, Us News & World Report, by journalist Richard Z. Chesnoff, on information by a Holocaust survivor/historian, Yaffa Eliach, published: "Four months after liberation, a gang of Polish partisans, accompanied by a neighbor, stormed the family house. Yaffa, then 7 years old and hiding in a closet, watched through a crack in the closet as her mother held Yaffa's infant brother in her arms and pleaded: "Kill me first, not my baby. In reply, the partisans fired nine bullets into the baby's body before pumping another 15 rounds into Yaffa's mother. Similar scenes were repeated all across Eastern Europe." Through research, it was discovered that Ms. Eliach published several contradicting versions of the incident. According to her family's friend, Leon Kahn (Leibke Kaganowicz) at that time member of the ruthless Soviet police, - the NKVD, (self proclaimed murderer, unpunished) in his No Time To Mourn (1978), reveals that Ms. Eliach was nowhere near her home at that time and could not have witnessed anything. NKVD records and Kahn indicate that Yaffa's parents lodged the local Soviet command and her mother and brother were killed accidentally in a battle between the Soviets and the partisans who were rescuing their buddies from a Soviet prison in town. Although USN & WR was provided Ms. Eliach's contradicting versions and her other irrational claims, no retraction, to date, has been published.

5.) On June 6, 1995, a woman representing herself as a survivor of Auschwitz, a lecturer at the Wiesenthal Center's Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, stated to an audience made up of adults and schoolchildren (who are regularly bussed to the Museum), that the Poles and the Hungarians were worse than the Germans. (Perhaps such irresponsible statements added to the Hungarians' anger so that on October 22, 1995, 30,000 demonstrated for Jews to leave their country). In response to a letter written with outrage by the Polish-American Public Relations Committee (PAPUREC) at the hatemongering disseminated by the Museum, Gerald Margolis, Director, said: "In general, might I suggest that the Polish-American Public Relations Committee would be better served by a more reasonable, perhaps sympathetic approach to its survivors." The Museum of Tolerance suggests that the survivors should be privileged to hatemonger, falsify history no matter the harm to others and no matter that they demean the tragedy of WW II.

6.) On September 1, 1995, Heritage Southwest Jewish Press, Los Angeles, in an article titled Poland's death camps, publisher Herb Brin stated: "During my first visit to Poland in 1962, I chanced to meet with U.S. Ambassador John Cabot at the embassy in Warsaw where we discussed a remarkable fact - that every significant German death factory was located in Poland not in Germany. As bitter as the German feelings were toward the Jews, "the German people themselves wouldn't stand for an Auschwitz in Germany", Cabot told me. "There is such a thing as a national shudder", he said. "Germans would have shuddered had the death camps been located inside Germany. In Poland, that was another matter." A brave man was our ambassador to Poland, John Cabot. Because Poland, over centuries, was a refuge for Jews expelled from other countries, most of Europe's Jews lived in Poland. At the onset of WWII there were about 3,000,000. Germans Incorporated into the Reich the Polish town of Oswiecim and renamed it Auschwitz. Most of its Polish population was evacuated. Therefore, during WWII Auschwitz was in Germany where many thousands of Christian Poles were murdered. It is interesting that camps: Buchenwald, Bergen-Belsen, Dachau, Theresienstadt, Mauthausen, Ravensbruk, Flossenburg, Sachsenhausen and others on German soil, are not considered significant by publisher Herb Brin. The quote attributed to John Cabot, makes no sense, is not credible, - blatant hatemongering. What is a national shudder? Shudder did not save any lives. Poles might or might not have shuddered but thousands saved Jewish lives in Poland from the Germans and thousands died doing so. Polish soldiers fought and died alongside the Allies on all fronts. Polish underground was the most numerous, best organized and the most valuable to the Allies. After the War, Jewish Communists who then ruled Poland (and still do to too large an extent), imprisoned, tortured and killed thousands of Poles including those who saved Jews, - read Them (1987) by Teresa Toranska, An Eye For An Eye: The Untold Story of Jewish Revenge Against Germans in 1945 (1993) by John Sack (sale of this book banned in Germany, thousands of copies shredded), Ks. Henryk Jankowski Nie Ma Za Co Przepraszac (1995) by Peter Raina (in Polish), transl. Father Jankowski has nothing for which to apologize. The approximately 12 million Jews living in the free world might have shuddered but did not form a single, voluntary, military unit to fight the Nazis.

7.) In his book From the Kingdom of Memory, Elie Wiesel, survivor, author, Nobel Prize winner, omitted Poland entirely from his list of nations that fought the German occupation.

8.) The use of the term 'Polish Concentration camps' and 'Polish death camps' when referring to Nazi Germany's concentration camps is widespread and has been going on for years. On January 13, 1996, The Ottawa Citizen, Canada, reached the ridiculous (geographically speaking) when it referred to a Nazi concentration camp located in north western part of Germany near the border with Holland as Polish concentration camp.

9.) The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, in The World Must Know, (1993) by Rabbi Michael Berenbaum, published a number of offensive fabrications. Perhaps the most odious is in the selected bibliography on the Holocaust. Referring to The Painted Bird by Jerzy (Lewinkopf) Kosinski, the USHMM states: "This slim autobiographical novel is about the wartime wanderings of a young boy through peasant villages in Poland, where he meets with hostility more often than with hospitality, until he is finally liberated by Russian troops and reunited with his parents. The graphic descriptions of the brutality and inhumanity facing the boy at every turn paint a picture of absolute human depravity. Kosinski immigrated to the United States from Poland in 1957 and committed suicide in 1991." The absolute human depravity was Kosinski's who demonized the Polish peasants who saved him and his parents. Exposed, as having profoundly falsified his wartime experiences, a fraud and a pervert, he committed suicide. Meanwhile, his book, all too readily designated as an autobiographical novel was distributed worldwide. The USHMM, as Wiesenthal Center's Museum of Tolerance, are declared U.S. educational institutions enjoying tax exempt status. They are duty bound under IRS sections 501(c)(3) to teach facts. Instead, they are institutions of propaganda, instigating hate against the Polish nation, - absolute human depravity, indeed.

10.) On November 17, 1995, Heritage Southwest Jewish Press, Los Angeles, in an article titled A defining moment, 100 years ago, the Dreyfus Affair changed history, published: "The Dreyfus affair split the nation apart. [...] In swift order, hatred toward Jews was reflected all over the Gentile world, reaching a zenith half a century later when France (Vichy France !) joined Germany and Austria in a vendetta against Jews that swept the continent. A vendetta without parallel in history. A vendetta to which the Vatican was silent - as Catholic countries such as Hungary, Poland, Ukraine, Croatia, Latvia and Lithuania joined in the War Against the Jews." In a 2 1/2 page response, PAPUREC wrote, among other things: 100 years ago, at least two thirds if not more, of the Gentile world would never have heard of the Dreyfus Affair. ... Much of the Gentile world in Europe went through the First World War with all the worries of survival and sorrows at losses. Quoting from August 16, 1989, The Daily News, Los Angeles, PAPUREC reminded publisher Brin that Israeli historian Pinchas Lapide estimates that 860,000 Jews escaped Nazi terror because Pius XII told the Church to help; that On Oct. 12, 1945, according to Vatican historians, the World Jewish Congress sent a gift of 2 million lire; that Israel's second prime minister, Moshe Sharett, told the pope his "first duty was to thank him and ... the Catholic Church ... for all they had done ... to rescue Jews; that The Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem, Isaac Herzog, praised Pius' "life-saving efforts on behalf of Jews during the Nazi occupation"; and that then Israel's representative to the U.N., Golda Meir expressed "When fearful martyrdom came to our people in the decade of Nazi terror, the voice of the pope was raised for the victims".

Also, PAPUREC asked: was WWII a "War Against the Jews"? Were the 40 plus million of Gentile victims a mere side effect of WWII?

Responding lengthy articles were published in the December 15, 1995 issue of Heritage and later. (copies of articles and letter, approximately 10 pages, available upon request and cover of copying and mailing expense). With the regular and much overused blast of anti-Semitism, and miserable lies and references to the writer as a miserable creep, (the writer is also a rescuer, as a young girl in Warsaw gave no concern for own safety to help the Jews), publisher Brin attacked also a Polish Cardinal: "As for the hatred of Jews by Joseph Cardinal Glemp of Poland, he is a scumbag who is beneath contempt." Rabbi Avi Weiss has said that, if one would want to study the anti-Semitism of Poland, "all one has to do is study the history of Joseph Cardinal Glemp, one of the worst anti-Semites in the world." Anyone, who disagrees with the Jews, objects to hatemongering, objects to Jews interfering in internal affairs of nations or attempts to correct falsified history, is immediately branded an anti-Semite, Jew-hater, a Fascist, a neo-Nazi or, - is likely to lose his/her job, - read They Dare To Speak Out by U.S. Congressman Paul Findley.

Several years ago, international Jewry upon instigation by Rabbi Avi Weiss, raised a hue and cry because after the war a Catholic Carmelite Convent was established on the grounds of the Auschwitz concentration camp. The Carmelite nuns prayed for all who perished at Auschwitz. Cardinal Glemp, as many people worldwide, objected to the Jewish demands to remove the convent. Thus in the minds of many Jews he became one of the worst anti-Semites in the world. In 1991, while visiting New York, the Cardinal was met by rowdy Jewish demonstrators carrying placards which included: "Cardinal Glemp stop hiding behind your cross." This placard displayed the Nazi swastika with the Christian cross superimposed. - (photo in book by Raina)

Anti-Polish, anti-Christian, anti-Catholic Jews strive to obscure that during the German occupation Jews sought and received refuge under the sign of the Christian cross. They were hidden by Polish Carmelite nuns, priests and monks of other Catholic orders, and often wore the garb of those orders. The obnoxious behavior of ingratitude should be of great interest to the Christian world.

Jews go to great lengths to minimize the aid given to them by Poles, - any Pole offering the slightest aid was doing so under the threat of death. When begrudgingly acknowledged, it is never with an unqualified "thank you", but with "not enough saved", "there were some good Poles", or with charges of being robbed by the rescuers, or the like. In learning institutions, Poles are portrayed in the worse light.

In an effort to falsify history, Poland, a country attacked and devastated by Nazi Germany, is nowadays often placed as an aggressor nation alongside Germany or with charges of collaboration with Germany. In A History of the Holocaust, (1982) the eminent and responsible Jewish historian, Yehuda Bauer writes: "Three million Poles were murdered by the Nazis during the course of the war, by methods best defined as selective genocide. The Polish intelligentsia, the Catholic priesthood - especially in Western Poland - and a large peasant population fell victim to the Nazi desire to eliminate the proud Polish nation. In contrast to other European nations, practically no political figures in Poland cooperated politically with the Nazis." When charges of collaboration are made, they are without any supportive facts or even names. Such charges originated with the Soviets to incite Jewish Communists after the War to murder Poles. Because of traditional Jewish anti-Polonism, the Soviets could rely on the Jews. The murderers later fled to Israel or to United States, - read Sack, Toranska, Raina (in Polish). The U.S. Justice Department's Office of Special Investigations aggressively searches for Nazis but to date has avoided entirely the matter of Jewish murderers living as "survivors". Furthermore, charges against Poland, other Catholic countries, Christianity in general, all are made (apart from "there is no business like Shoah business") to cover-up and prevent scrutiny of the tragic fact that without Jewish collaboration, the Holocaust would not have happened, - even the hangman was Jewish said Hannah Arendt in Eichman in Jerusalem (1963). Read also The Seventh Million (1993) by Tom Segev, Stella (1992) by Peter Wyden, Special Treatment (1985) by Alan Abrams, Perfidy (1961) by Ben Hecht, The Transfer Agreement (1984) by Edwin Black (except for an improbable story of his parents' survival, Black's book is excellent).

The above barely introduces the magnitude of the problem. It is being brought to the attention of the American and world public with the hope of sufficiently awakening interest to stimulate thorough scrutiny. Jews are called upon to consider the long-term consequences of hatemongering.
