I remember once (in '05, I believe it was) a sort of older Polish lady (not Jewish) saw my name (my last name is very Polish-Jewish-sounding), and and asked me what Nationality the name was. So I said "Polish," and she asked me what I thought of the new Pope... ;D

I said, "Well, actually, I'm Jewish (I was not frum yet at the time, so I wan't wearing a Yarmulke).
And then she said, "But I thought you said you were Polish?..." ::)

That's funy CJD, Jews must be real masochists to came into Poland from "tolerant" countries like Spain, England, France, Scotland who kicked out their Jews regulary. So after 800 years of "traditional Polish anti-semtism" we had largest 3 000 000 people diaspora in the world before WWII. Even before US tightened its borders in 1929 and Brits imposed restrictions into Palestinian Mandate only tiny minority choosed to leave this horrible country. ::)
