    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the atrocities inflicted against the Jews by the Nazis, examining Poland's ruling far-right Law and Justice Party (PiS) making it illegal to blame the country for Nazi atrocities during World War II. Social activist Konstanty Gebert feels he needs to speak against the law. Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Bartosz Cichocki states the country's embassies overseas record more than 1,500 instances Poland has recieved the blame for Nazi atrocities in place of Germany.
