JEWS FOR JUSTICE

54: The world is very fragile today. Ideological, religious, racial, national, xenophobic, gender and social divisions can bring the fuse to the powder keg of a more than the divided human community on our planet. The world has lived more than 5000 years since the signs of the first civilizations appeared. Having learned how to make tools of labor, people have adapted these tools for the destruction of their own kind. Improving weapons for war, people sought to subjugate others and make the victors honor the gods. The recalcitrant were destroyed. The right of the strong was beyond doubt. This was the case 5,000 years ago. This right still prevails today. Many beautiful words are pronounced from the high rostrum. But as then, in our distant past, the irreconcilable difference, and as a result, hatred requires respect for the right of the strong. Once again about Poland: Poland has never admitted complicity on any large scale, and last year Warsaw passed a law prohibiting people from blaming the Polish people for the atrocities of the Holocaust. Indeed, a new study of Holocaust memory in Europe argues that Poles are among the "worst criminals" when it comes to efforts to rehabilitate Nazi accomplices and war criminals and "minimize their own guilt in attempting to exterminate Jews."
