Activists from the western Russian city of Smolensk have petitioned the country's parliament, the Duma, to demolish a symbolic memorial site to the Katyn massacre and a cemetery for its victims, Russian daily Kommersant has reported.
Images posted online showed heavy machinery, bearing the pro-war 'Z' and 'V' symbols, approaching the Katyn monument in an apparent bid to destroy it.
The memorial site and monument commemorate the Katyn Forest Massacre in western Russia, a series of mass executions of Polish POWs, mainly military officers and policemen, carried out by the Soviet NKVD security agency in April and May 1940. The killings took place at several locations, but the massacre is named after the Katyn Forest in western Russia, where some of the mass graves of the victims were first discovered.
Kommersant wrote the petition calls for the Katyn monument to be demolished but the graves of Polish victims to be left untouched. The signatories argued that Poland's position on the war in Ukraine justifies "the truth being set straight about Katyn."

No, everything glorifying communism has long gone.
Russians at their best lol.
Polish savages? The Poles have every right to hate the Russians as do all of the former Soviet bloc.
The only allies have is Iran and China. And the will turn on the Russians in a heartbeat.
You can also see the movie Wolyn on youtube.
That is the movie that is banned in the Ukriane about the massacre of thousands of Poles by Ukrainian nationalist.
Can someone tell me just WHY this vile creature is allowed to pollute this site??
Thanks for the tip I have not heard of it.
“mock the Polish savages demolishing similar Russian monuments in Poland.”
You mean the monuments to the Russians who enslaved the Polish people for half a century? The same Russians who committed mass murder of Polish military officers, Polish policemen, and Polish intellectuals?
If I were running Poland I’d blow ever single one of them to dust and then bill Moscow for the dynamite.

The movie starts around 1932 or so. Then ends during the second world war around 1943-44.
Notice, this movie is as dramatic as the show “come and see” and very graphic.
I was just going to write you back as I looked and saw quite a few links. Thanks for the link. (half Pole here).
Andrzej Wajda was a real treasure.
It is their country and they are free to do whatever they wish. I have no idea why there is outrage over the above news, especially given that nothing is getting demolished in this case.
The difference is Poles and Ukrainians have put their history behind them for the most part.
here is a elder fellow who got to experience it first hand.

My wifes friend from Parczew Poland went through that. Her dad was killed by the Russians after WW2 and her cousins and aunts and uncles perished in the Wolynia massacres.
She just got back from there as her son and grandchildren are still there. She is in panic trying to get them to hell out of there.

Lenin’s rotting corpse isn’t still fouling up Red Square? When did it get tossed into the trash heap?
L
Nope..they havent.
You might thinks so, but if you had any contact with Poles who are familiar with that you’d get an education real quick.
For later watching, thanks
Only brainwashed Putinas continue trying to rekindle ancient Polish-Ukrainian history. It’s gaslighting nonsense and nobody cares. Poland and Ukraine are now united in hatred of mass murdering Russia.

Well there are always going to be a few jerks about it. But it’s nothing compared to the hatred between Poles and Russians.
Is red square in Poland?
That is true. But Lydia-my wifes friend, told me when I asked about it. Dont trust the Russians, they’ll stab you in the back, Dont trust the Ruthians-thats what they called the Ukrainians, because they’ll shoot you in the back.
Yet here we are on here, have supporters of the UPA, AND, OUN who committed these autrocities.
Stepand Bandera is a real fine Son of a Bitch to look up to.
