The US Ambassador’s latest entry on the Nazi occupation of Krakow and TVP’s journalistic program show how much Poland still needs to do to lie to history, to ensure no false or politically correct gibberish don’t blur the truth. Years of work by the Germans and Austrians made the world believe that they and the Soviets had not provoked World War II and committed genocide, but unknown Nazis. Therefore, Ambassador Mark Brzeziński, who serves as a guide for Poland to Mr. Douglas Emhoff – husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, flashed on Twitter his knowledge and his golden thought
With @SecondGentleman we visited Schindler’s Factory – a museum showing life in Krakow during the Nazi occupation. It’s an important lesson about preserving humanity in a terrifying time in history.
This entry is another proof that the Germans and Austrians did a good job hiding behind Nazis. It is frightening to think of what Mr Brzeziński might have said to Mr Emhoff, who is of Jewish origin.
This is not the first time that senior American officials have shown ignorance, recklessness, ignorance. President Barrack Hussein Obama, like former FBI chief James B. Comey, spoke publicly about the Polish death camps. However, Marek Brzeziński’s words are shocking because he is of Polish origin, is an ambassador to Poland and should know thoroughly the history of the country of his ancestors in which he serves and the level of sensitivity to the truth about its history. I don’t suspect the ambassador of bad will or ignorance, he is content to stupidly repeat the gibberish of the language of political correctness.
However, we must not let any silly and historically falsifying mention, comment or remark go unpunished and our officials must react strongly to the Ambassador’s entrance. In addition to the “lesson in humanity” mentioned by the ambassador, he will need a lesson in history and ordinary thought. Mr. Brzezinski should finally understand that the inscription on the gate of the German extermination camp of Auschwitz: “work mach frei” it’s not in the Nazi language, it’s in German. It was Germany understood as a criminal state and the Germans as a criminal state, obedient citizens, specific entrepreneurs who occupied Poland and committed crimes there, and not only some members of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party – NSDAP, i.e. unspecified Nazis.
No one in the world is saying that the Democrats dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and killed 200,000 Japanese civilians. After all, it was Democrat Harry Truman and his Democratic Party administration who decided to wipe out two cities and ordered the attack. We understand that the United States and the Americans did it. Ambassador Brzeziński probably doesn’t want the world to change the story of the nuclear attack, he interpreted it differently and blamed his native Democratic Party. Likewise, it was Germany that occupied Poland, not the members of the NSDAP.
Let’s develop this analogy further. American officials, but not only them, desperately and stupidly explain that when they talk about the Polish death camps, they only use mental shortcuts. That they simply mean to geographically define the place where they were. Ambassador, when you talk to people who tell so much cretinism and lies, explain to them that the atomic bombs that wiped out Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren’t Japanese just because they were dropped on Japan. They were Americans. If you insist, you can even say that they were Democratic Party atomic bombs, but certainly not Japanese bombs. Do you think those who talk nonsense about the “Polish” camps think that in Pearl Harbor it was American or maybe Hawaiian bombs and torpedoes that hit the USS Arizona and sank it? Such a shortcut, huh?
Since Ambassador Brzeziński mentioned the mysterious Nazis, we would also like to warn him, just in case, against repeating a fairly common mistake. This, in turn, results from the effectiveness of Soviet propaganda and Soviet falsification of history. Well, Nazism, or National Socialism, is not a right-wing ideology, but a very left-wing one, as even its name suggests. The Soviets and the Bolsheviks had their internationalist socialism, and the Germans their nationalist. Just the usual differences within the same family. The same goes for fascism – the Italian version of socialism.
The greatest propagandist of Nazism, praising its crimes, Joseph Goebbels in his “Journals” wrote about Nazi ideology that it consists of two components – socialism and nationalism. He wrote that the former was more important and that if anything had to be abandoned, nationalism would be abandoned. This was understood by many Frenchmen, Belgians and Dutchmen who so willingly joined the ranks of the SS.
The ambassador must understand that telling the truth about the German and Soviet invasion of Poland in 1939 and the occupation has not only dignified, historical and political significance, but also legal and practical. It is not the National Socialists who owe us big reparations for the crimes, the plunder of the destruction, but the Germans, perhaps together with the Austrians. It is not the Nazis who are supposed to return the stolen works of art to us, but the Germans and the Austrians. And the Americans are there to help us.
