Masongeneral,
My posting was not ment to be anti-semetic, I only found it
reasonable to mention Jerzy Urbans background as a non-Catholic Pole. I find "Nie" as a satirical magazine a necassary
element in the Polish free media.
Again I am not a anti-semite, nor a philosemite or Polish nationalist. People who read my previous postings know my standpoints. Polish jewish intellectuals play in my opinion an important role in the Polish society before and after the second world war. Only the sad thing is that their influence is eagerrated
by reactionary Catholic and Polish nationalist forces, which I consider as people who are counter productive and small minded. The same forces but more influential you have in Hungary, Ukraine and Russia where anti-semitism is more present and visible. Jerzy Urban is as important for free Poland as Adam Michnik from Gazetta Wyborcza and intellectuals like
Geremek and Mazovietski.
