Applebaum wrote some good books on communism and the Soviet Union. Unfortunately she is otherwise a western liberal, and has also viciously attacked Polish nationalists from the Law and Justice (PiS) coalition. She is pro-EU in its pushing of cultural and social controls (including being pro-immigration).
But on the matter of Russia she is entirely on the same page as the Polish conservatives. Its interesting that the last election map shows that the closer to Russia the constituency, the more conservative (PiS) the vote. The Russian threat is the great uniter in Poland.

I like Poland and I think both of the two big parties there are generally good. Only some smaller parties are scum or idiots there.

Many Jews have their roots in the old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. They went there because it was the most tolerant place in Europe in its day. Yet, they are extremely hostile to Polish nationalism, including Catholicism.
