I was clear, I made a distinction between a convo like we're having and official government pronouncements.
Many Poles were also involved in the extermination of Poles. The way you make it sound is as if Poles were perpetrators and not the victims too. Those Jews were also Polish. Those gays, Romanies, Jehova Witnesses, Masons and the disabled were Polish too, as were millions of Catholic Poles.
Edit: Actually who need Germans in the picture? It was all Poles, don't you know
