I don't believe that anybody is under the impression that the Polish people were the driving force behind the establishment of the death camps. I'm sure that most people believe the Poles were victims of a brutalizing invading force on their own sovereign territory.

Hope you are right. The problem is abysmal education system. In a survey taken several years ago in Britan, over 50% of adult participants have never heard of Auschwitz.

For them, it could be a name of some white wine. They have no clue.

Fast forward ten or 20 years and if those blokes check the net to find what Auschwitz is they will find reports calling Auschwitz a "polish nazi concentration camp".

Some time ago I've read, that some research has been done among youngsters in a school in California.

One of the questions was "what nationality were the Nazis?".

And the most common answer was ... "Polish".
