Is it wrong to blame
Where Poles to be exterminated like the Jews?
It is clear from the Nazi Germans said that all Polish citizens whether Jewish or Christian were doomed. Hitler said about killing just prior to the start of WWII that it should be done “without pity or mercy all men, women, and children of Polish descent or language. Only in this way can we obtain the living space we need” Page 3 Forgotten Holocaust by Richard C. Lukas (Hippocrene Books) ISBN 0-87052-632-4.Hitler words were echoed by Heinrich Himmler “all Poles will disappear from the world….It is essential that the great German people should consider it as its major task to destroy all Poles” Page 4 Forgotten Holocaust by Richard C. Lukas (Hippocrene Books) ISBN 0-87052-632-4.
Martin Bormann said “the Slavs are to work for us. Insofar as we don’t need them, they may die” Page 4 Forgotten Holocaust by Richard C. Lukas (Hippocrene Books) ISBN 0-87052-632-4
The German thinking did not change over time as Hans Frank in 1944 said “As far as I am concerned, the Poles and the Ukrainians and their like may be chopped into small pieces. Let it be, what should be”. Page 5 Forgotten Holocaust by Richard C. Lukas (Hippocrene Books) ISBN 0-87052-632-4.
The Nobel Laureate Czesław Miłosz when expressing his feelings said "when the meaning of the word Holocaust undergoes gradual modification, so that the word begins to belong to the history of the Jews exclusively, as if among the victims there were not also millions of Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, and prisoners of other nationalities."
