    Deputy Foreign Minister Szymon Szynkowski vel Sek said Tuesday the “shameful, scandalous and slanderous” comments by the Israeli minister, Israel Katz, require an “unequivocal and definite” reaction.

    He said it was up to Israel to choose the form the apology takes and how it is delivered.

    Katz said last week that Poles collaborated with Nazi Germans and “sucked anti-Semitism with their mothers’ milk.”

    The remarks prompted Poland to pull out of a summit of central European nations in Jerusalem and the summit was canceled.

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instead hosted a series of sit-downs Tuesday with his Czech, Slovakian and Hungarian counterparts.

    The state of Israel does not represent all Jews.There are tens of thousand of Torah observant Jews who want nothing to do with the Torah forbidden state.

    Having said,the Poles Yemach Shemom Vezichrom (may their names and remembrance be obliterated) were a huge partner to the Nazis y’ms.

    Yes apology no apology history is history. Without the Poles the Ukraine’s the Hungarians and all others the Nazis would never ever been able to kill six million Jews.

    When the filthy miserable anti semetic polacks apologize for their complacencies & their out right help in the murder of millions of Yidden then perhaps Israel will consider an apology. Till then let these bastards and their zoyna women rot & burn in hell for eternity.
