But surely even one property stolen from a Jewish family during the Nazi era is one too many? Poland is meant to be a democratic country with rule of law, fair to all. If I can prove that my great grandfather owned a house in Lodz but was taken out by force and murdered in Auschwitz and a Polish family moved in, then I have the right to that property. Similarly for people who suffered under communist rule. The only issue is there is no one to stand up and support the rights of those families, whereas Jews have the State of Israel which has locus in these matters.
No point getting antsy about it.
Besides it simply shows that Poland and other countries like Hungary are moving away from the EU ideal of democracy. Putin may get his wish after all.
