Mnementh said: Although many countries have done war crimes, I don't think it is fair for me as a german to judge Poland, because we did cruel deeds back in WWII. In no way I'm victimizing Poland, because they were victims of our war and also vctims of the russians, there can be no way to deny that. |
Oh boy, this guilt imposing attitude in Germany is just sad.
My point is Pilsudski, Poland in general and a lot of other figurants were as much of an assholes as everyone else, they're nobody's victims except of their ambitions, or rather lack of power to fullfil them. Want to play with big boys? Take responsibility. And as usual they ended up being "partitioned" for a... 6th time, right? :D Instead of taking part in "partitioning" of somebody else like Czechoslovakia, which they did, or any other neighbour at the time, as they hoped.
Do British even bother with guilt about, say, people of India? Like artificial famine of 1943 in Bengal that killed 3,5M (according to Gosha), that usually blamed on nature or Japanese. The fact wouldn't even have been brought to attention of English-speaking scientific community if not for Enlgish-speaking authors from India. Rarely this even cross the mind of average British. Why should you?
