Author is a liberal writer critical of anti-Semitism among segments of Poland and rest of Europe, but understands the spirit behind the new law.

Polish President Andrzej Duda signed Poland's controversial new Holocaust bill late Tuesday ahead of it being assessed by the country's Constitutional Tribunal. The law would make it illegal to accuse the nation of complicity in crimes committed by Nazi Germany, including the Holocaust. It would also ban the use of terms such as "Polish death camps" in relation to Auschwitz and other such camps located in Nazi-occupied Poland

I’m still waiting for a single mainstream figure in politics or media to suggest allowing free speech about history.

Writer is a liberal Jew hater, Israel has said no such thing.

While there's little question there was less cooperation with the Nazis in Poland, actually not a country, than in other major European occupied countries, but please don't mention that. It's illegal, since it points out there was some cooperation amongst the citizenry.

Polish death camps were an election issue, thus the bill from far right legislators. Foolish to sign, I predict if not repealed it will be an election issue again.

And yes, the entire issue, embarrassing for Poland, is the fault of der Juden.

Polish Neo-Fascists Denounce Jewish Opposition to Holocaust Bill as ‘Israeli Aggression’ During Warsaw Rally. Just a bunch of "Jewish smears". “Take off the Kippah (Jewish skull cap)! Sign the Bill!”, " Polish state cannot be left defenseless against the Israeli, Jewish smear", declare the Israeli Ambassador persona non gratta. "“Stop Jewish Arrogance”", Poland as a “vassal of the Jewish circles,”

I'd suggest there are antisemites in Poland today, but illegal to say so.

Ironic, the most prominent individuals to use the phrase Polish death camps were President Obama, not Jewish, and James Comey. Yes, that James Comey

“(an estimated 200,000 Jews were killed, directly or indirectly, by Poles)”

The “estimate” comes from another Jew who make a living off such nonsense. Both should soon be confronted with lawsuits.

I agree. I also think that law was an antisemitic trick that grievance addled Jews and Poles fell for
