Harry:
So you mean that because they had Jewish names, they could not possibly have been Polish. That says all that needs to be said about you: you view Jews and Poles as two separate races. To you a Jew can not be a Pole and vice versa. That is because you are what is referred to as a bigot.
because we are separated nations. In moder times it changes.
In the past Jews had not only their religion but different language and ethnic group.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yiddish_languagesome of them couldn't speak Polish.
I was only asking about your opinion if Jew = Pole (your opinion)
IMO you like to talk about Jewish victims or heros as about Jews. When it comes to bad Jews they are Poles who operated camps after WWII.
In the past reality was much different. In big cities there was a lot good assimilated Jews good Polish patriots and links I provided show that they were officers in Polish army or later oppostionst durring communism.
good Poles:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Military_UnionŻydowski Związek Wojskowy (ŻZW, Polish for Jewish Military Union) was an underground resistance organization operating during World War II in the area of the Warsaw Ghetto and fighting during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. It was formed primarily of former officers of the Polish Army in late 1939, soon after the start of the German occupation of Poland.
Due to its close ties with the all-national Armia Krajowa (AK), after the war the Communist authorities of Poland suppressed the publication of books and articles on ŻZW, whose role in the uprising in the ghetto was undervalued,[1] as opposed to a leftist Jewish organization Żydowska Organizacja Bojowa (Jewish Fighting Organization), whose role in the struggle is better covered in modern monographs and often overstated
as to this names they are not "native Polish names"
Harry:
Provided they were happy to sit on the ghetto benches in the segregated Polish universities. Which were introduced before or during the war? And provided they didn’t want to join the professional associations which regulated and validated those professions. And, of course, provided that they could get a place in universities which strictly controlled the number of Jews who would be permitted to pollute the hallowed Polish halls of learning with their presence.
Hurwicz is Regents’ Professor of Economics (Emeritus) at the University of Minnesota. He is among the first economists to recognize the value of game theory and is a pioneer in its application. Hurwicz shared the 2007 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences with Eric Maskin and Roger Myerson for their work on mechanism design.
Hurwicz was born in Moscow, Russia to a Jewish family a few months before the October Revolution. The family was Polish and had lived in Congress Kingdom (the part of Poland then within the Russian Empire) but had been displaced by World War I. Soon after Leonid's birth, the family returned to Warsaw, Poland.
Encouraged by his father to study law, in 1938 Hurwicz received his LL.M. degree from Warsaw University
he is after Polish univeristy - LAWER.
Jews had harder life in USA.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_JewsUntil the 1950s, a quota system at elite colleges and universities limited the number of Jewish students. Before 1945, only a few Jewish professors were permitted as instructors at elite universities. In 1941, anti-Semitism drove Milton Friedman from a non-tenured assistant professorship at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Harry Levin became the first Jewish full professor in the Harvard English department in 1943, but the Economics department decided not to hire Paul Samuelson in 1948. Harvard hired its first Jewish biochemists in 1954.
Harry:
. Just as you doubtless view anybody who has black or yellow skin as being unable to be Polish.
it is not true.
