I have a great respect for Poles, Russians and Ukrainians. I also love Slovaks, Bulgarians (there was one here that I really disliked), and Czechs too. In Poland there were thriving cities almost entirely settled by Jews. Not sure why there is so much hate expressed towards the Slavs here? All western Europeans permanently expelled the Jews,with exception to Dutch, and who accepted millions of Jews to their countries? Slavs! And today most of these Jews are Slavs if we look at genetics. Some come here and express hate towards their own people. I mean if your family lived in Belarus or Poland for 1000 years it is the fact that you are at least 95% Slav and your faith is Judaism.
I am 95% Slav?? Sorry , I disagree with you! I am expressing hate for Slavs?? How could you say that.. I am talking about the history and oppression that Jews faced living in Eastern Europe for 1000+ years. Jews also have very distinct features compared to the Slavs of the land where they resided. As a matter of fact, the distinct feature of Semites made it much easier for the Nazis to identify Jews in Poland compared to Jews who lived in France or Italy, where the darker complected and more Middle Eastern features of the population actually much more closer resembled that of the Jewish population. Genetic testing also proves that Jewish population has genes that much more closer resemble people of the Middle East than people of Eastern Europe.
Whatever Slavic genes I may have were not achieved through any righteous means, but rather through rape, which was extremely common during pogroms. For example, Cossack soldiers would come ransack villages and gang rape helpless Jewish girls. Many would get pregnant and would give birth to these bastardized children who would then be raised as Jewish. They say a quite a number of Jewish women living in the villages faced rapes.
Welcomed us with open arms? You should study the history a bit more before you make such a blind statement. Yeah, Jews were pushed around and forced to go from place to place. However, we were not welcomed with open arms. We lived in starving villages and many times by order of Czar or other leaders were forced to leave our homes at a short moment's notice. They would come and burn our villages down. We were not allowed to live in their cities, could not hold jobs or have an education. This is what you call being welcomed? THe Jews In Turkey practically lived better than the Jews did in Russia. In Russia, Jews were starving and poor.
I have my great grandfather Efraim's entire life story translated from Yiddish to English on audio where he describes his life growing up in the shtetl of Shchedrin , Belarus. The Czar would draft the Jewish peasants into his army to be on the front lines of battles and would use them like cannon fodder. Jews were considered subhuman and inferior to any Russian gentile. Essentially, Jewish life was cheap and worthless.
ANyhow, take a history lesson in Jewish history. Those wonderful POles also worked side by side with nazis to help round up their Jewish citizens and have them shipped off to death camps. If it was not for the zealousness of many Poles to aid the nazis, many more Jews could have survived the Holocaust in Poland, but instead all of Poland's Jewry was wiped out, except a small remnant.
Anyhow, I respect Serbians, but somehow you seem to be wanting to instigate some type of confrontation. As well, you want us to respect Slavs as one people, as if we Jews fighting or being against Russia makes us enemies of the Slavs. Slavs also helped massacre their fellow Slavs in death camps, such as the Croats. So, obviously , you cannot say all Slavs are honorable people. What hte Russians , Ukrainians and Poles did to the Jews over the years was disgraceful. If you cannot face the fact, well, I am sorry about that.
