An example "It’s not a “complex history” deserving of additional study by historians. It’s a fact."

He does not inform that Polish people care about Jewish past and preserve former Nazi camps. Rich and Nazi Austria preserves only one camp Mauthausen and the other one Gusen is a sweet place where happy people live. People of Oswiecim are still haunted by German crimes and abused by Western ignorants. Unfortunaterly I can afford visiting Florida, the land which did not accept MS St. Louis or Massachusetts, where according to US press antisemitism grows. Some of David's supporters misinform and reject any critics.

This opinion is at least unprecize. “For many decades we’ve seen a push of responsibility away from the Germans as the perpetrators to us, to Poles,” the Consul General said, in an attempt to distance Poland’s culpability. - Poland's?
