“In their opinion, the murderers and their partners from Germany, Polish, Hungarian, and many other places have not done anything wrong, because they were told myself that this was what they were doing was right and there was no escape from it. That’s what people do and that should really scare us “- that sounded words of the head the FBI, which the Washington Post reprinted in their pages. Scandalous statement has already cause outrage.

Germany occupied Poland as well, but there was no Polish “Vichy”. During the war Polish state did not exist – writes Applebaum.
No Polish state structures allowed the Germans to create a lawless, violent world in which anyone could be killed, deported every Jew, and every Pole who helped the Jews could be immediately executed with all his family. Many just died. Also killed millions of other Poles – intellectuals, priests and politicians were also targets of the Nazis – writes Applebaum.
