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.
