Even the title 'Poland’s role in the Holocaust ' is a pure insult.
Similar to 'Killing Brits and British Crown's role in it'.

The war and its horrors have been over for 63 years. Very few of the participants and victims are still alive. Isn't it time that their descendants stopped looking for apologies and compensation, and got on with their lives? The Normans wronged some of my ancestors. Where should I go for redress?

What about jewish role in the comunist terror?
During war many Jews in eastern Poland ocupied by Soviets took part in persecution of polish people : near 1 million Poles were deported to camps and thousands were arrested - in some cases denouncated by Jews! After war Jews killed 3500-6000 Poles.

Polish antisemitism ?
About 400 000 Poles helped Jews during holocaust IN SPITE OF DEATH PENALTY ! Germans killed Poles for every kind of help: for giving a piece of bread or glass of water, making false papers, hiding Jews
Polish organisation Żegota helped 50 000 Jews, but they don't apreciate it

Ewa Białach , Płock,

yes, as a Pole I can say there is too much antisemitism and racism in Poland. Sadly it is true and I don't think Polish government is doing enough to fight it. BUT that does not justify talking rubbish about Poles' participation in Holocaust. So many lies and mistakes simply offend memory of victims

I have never experienced a society so permiated with racial hatred and prejudice as Poland. As the ambassador shows, the Polish have yet to deal with this.

Sadly this bigotry has been transplanted to UK through blatant displays of anti-black and anti-homosexual words & deeds amongst migrant Poles.

No brief response possible but there is a problem, when talking of this horribly complex past, in the habitual use by Poles of Pole and Jew rather than Polish Jew and Polish Catholic. Most Jews in Poland in the 1920s and 1930s identified as Polish and Poles.

Utter drivel. I have just returned from Poland having been abused and spat at when visiting Auschwitz. Poland is one of the most antisemitic countries on Earth outside of the Muslim world. The UK is catching up fast though. Well done Mr Coren for writing about an unpalatable truth

Jay, London,

Yes, as a Jew with roots in Poland and who has visited there three times I can say that the Coren article is at the least distorted and simplistic regarding Poland. Also it's wrong to equate Poland and Lithuania in these matters. They are two significantly different cases.

T. Bartman, Holden,

Thank you, Ambassador, for your sensible letter. Historic knowledge and common sense are essential to avoid grave misunderstandings between the nations, fuelled by the likes of Mr. Coren.
