Follow Feb. 14, 2021 Yin and yang. Prof. Daniel Blatman could not have chosen a more miserable simile for describing the way Poles related to Jews during the Holocaust. The historian (wearing his Chinese philosophy expert hat?) wrote in Haaretz on February 8 that the rescue and the killing of Jews were “two intertwining phenomena” that could not be disentangled from one another. Thus, he explained, the reality was too complex to allow a distinction between “anti-Semitic denouncers of Jews” and “moral saviors of Jews.” Really, Prof. Blatman? Can you not distinguish between Jozef Ulma, who hid Jews in his barn out of pure humanistic sentiments and was murdered along with his family after being caught by the Germans, and Piotr Binczycki, who burst into another farm where a Jewish family was hiding, shot the wife immediately and tortured her children and before shooting them as well? True harmony. Have we mentioned yin and yang?
