  1. “Poland attacked us” is as plausible then as “Ukraine attacked us” is today, which is to say entirely plausible. To think of Poland and Germany even as independent actors and not avatars for other things is just naive. At this point in history, Poland only was Poland for almost two decades and already had to fight communists. Once they felt reassurance from the western powers they probably got a little punchy, as Slavs are wont to do.

  2. “The Jewish myth” Why does anti-Trotsky propaganda from both Poland and USSR, enemies to each other, look the same? Your British accent belies your experience. Our small-hat friends have been expelled from Hungary many times in their past, yet the small hats return. Why should a country have the right to chose its people? If a country I was in where I had little history, I wouldn’t fight it much beyond wanting to know why.
