Perhaps you might ask yourself why most of the concentration camps were located in Poland.
You might ask yourself how the Poles treated their jewish neighbors.
You might remind yourself that the Warsaw Ghetto was actually in Poland, believe it or not.

You might ask yourself why so many Jews lived in Poland.
You might ask yourself why so many camps were in GERMANY.
You might ask yourself why this same rabi cant seem to find a regular synagogue so he wont have to demagogue.

What do you think about it Jackson ?
But don't you even try to tell me that the Warsaw Ghetto was actually in Warsaw, because 300.000 Jews lived there.
I will have to report abuse If you do it !

You might ask yourself why Poland (prior to the War of the Holocaust) was referred to as Jewish paradise.

"why most of the concentration camps were located in Poland."
How about logistic reasons, related to the biggest Jewish population in Europe.
"You might ask yourself how the Poles treated their jewish neighbors".
I know, I know - you mean those Poles who are 1/3 of total number of the Righteous Among the Nations of the World nominated by the Yad Vashem Institue (maybe the name is different in English, I've translated it literally from Polish, but I think you know what I mean).
And - what is very important - this was regardless the fact, that Poland was the only country in occupied Europe, in which there was just one penatly for hiding or helping a Jew - death for the helper and his entire family.
You might remind yourself that the Warsaw Ghetto was actually in Poland, believe it or not.
I do believe it, as Warsaw is located in Poland (and even more - If you didn't know - it is Polish capital city). And you may find interesting, that before WW2 it was the city with second in the world - after New York City - Jewish population. What do yo think, maybe it had something to do with the Germans' decision to locate the ghetto there.

Because Warsaw was Polish capital ?
