Huffington Post ran a piece remembering "other victims" of the Holocaust. They left out Slavs like Russians and Poles who, numerically, are a larger group than any of the other groups they mention. Link here.
PS: Liron wrote in to inform me that the article mentions Poles. Fair enough but Poles are not one of the bullet points.

Bieganski the Blog exists to further explore the themes of the book Bieganski the Brute Polak Stereotype, Its Role in Polish-Jewish Relations and American Popular Culture.
These themes include the false and damaging stereotype of Poles as brutes who are uniquely hateful and responsible for atrocity, and this stereotype's use in distorting WW II history and all accounts of atrocity.
This blog welcomes comments from readers that address those themes. Off-topic and anti-Semitic posts are likely to be deleted.

ReplyDeleteThe HUFFINGTON POST is hardly objective. It is a mouthpiece of left-wing ideology, including that specifically directed against PiS and Poland.
Can you provide any evidence to support your assertion that the Huffington Post is directed against Poles and Poland?
DeleteEasy.
DeleteJust type-in Poland and "Huffington Post" into google.com, and it immediately brings up many articles that repeat the standard leftist accusations against Poland. It also parrots the usual Holocaust-related calumnies against Poland.
