Well, of course not, why should an iceberg be Spain’s fault?
Poland’s been solid GOP territory ever since Ford liberated it from the Soviets back in 1976.
Iceberg, Goldberg, what’s the difference?
That is a patently untrue statement. There has been a resurgence of Jewish population and Jewish culture in Poland.
I think I’ve never heard a more poetic phrasing of “I was wrong and I have no idea what I’m talking about.” Gold star to you, sir. 
Which just goes to show that some people never learn.
This is a Dope practice that drives me up a wall. If you have nothing to contribute beyond some retarded fucking game of gotcha (Yeah, I know, fuck that meme.) without actually addressing the fucking point and spirit of the post then save the poor hamsters some fucking time and energy.
See post 112 on how to say “You got it wrong, idiot,” AND actually having something useful to contribute This is a lesson that would serve you well and go a long way in curing the verbal diarrhea that I’ve seen from you.
Is it possible that Poland doesn’t know that we all know what really went on there? Is it possible that the majority of Poles (in Poland) don’t really know what happened (vis a vis the treatment of Jewish by Poles)? Not that it has anything with what Obama said.
Or maybe they are feigning offense to keep people from looking too close into it and finding out they were not completely innocent of the whole thing.
They know.
My parents remember locals coming up to the camp fences to gawk. Plus they lived in a large city before it became the ghetto, and remember how their former neighbors turned on them.
My parents city had a population of about 500,000, of which, in 1930, 200,000 were Jews. That many Jews ending up dead, disappeared or in the ghetto is not a subtle thing.
Is it election season (aka “the silly season”) in Poland, too?
Uh huh. Might I recommend for you the BBC documentary Stadiums of Hate? It’s on YouTube, and will give you an opportunity to learn how to say “Jewish Whore” in a new language.
There were 3,500,000 Jews in Poland before World War II. So 97% of the Jewish population is gone.
If Obama let Biden deliver the speech, Biden would have confused Poland with Philadelphia!
Oooh, snap! Wilde?
There seem to be conflicting cites on this. The article Terr posted was written in 2008 and says
But also says
But I also found this page which claims to be updated in 2010 which says
3,200 out of 38,038,000 are Jewish.
It may be that many of the people with Jewish ancestry aren’t claiming to be Jewish.
See, the joke is they both start with P, and Biden is somewhat prone to gaffes. It’s a lot funnier when you know the background.
Anyway, this is about as important as the Romney campaign’s misspelling ‘America’ as ‘Amercia.’
Hey, I got one! How does a Polish soldier salute?!
With two fingers! One for God, and one for Country!
Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk! Aren’t Polacks stupid?! 
So depending on what year you’re looking at there are either 50000, 25000, or 3200 Jews remaining in Poland. And somebody writes that Poland is making “progress” on this issue.
Is anyone else concerned?
Physician, heal thyself. :rolleyes:
It’s always a pleasure to hear from a fan, but you’re not really giving me any compelling reason why I should give a shit about you or what you think. You’re ignorant, you’re unfamiliar with the terms of argument you’re using, and you’re profoundly uninteresting. Have a nice life.
