  1. Poland announced this publicly because they didn’t want to Arrest Bibi. They are bound by a treaty they can’t abrogate, so the next best thing is to announce their planned actions to avoid an international incident. Essentially “Hey Bibi, please don’t come here”.

  2. @Cynic got it. So far, Poland is simply doing international political posturing. They clearly don’t want to do either of arrest Bibi or ignore the ICC. It is perfectly reasonable for them to act this way. If/when Netanyahu ever steps foot in Poland, then it will be a whole different animal.

  3. So. They are going to celebrate and commemorate the holocaust by taking a totally NAZI action and position. WTF???? I am amazed. What a bunch of dumb asses. No wonder Polish is synonymous throughout history with fumbling dumbassery.

    I think if I were in a treaty or a binding relationship with an organization I knew was that fucked up I discontinue the alliance. Like yesterday.

  5. ^^^^ So the Jews are the problem? After that mass slaughter? They don’t have a right to defend themselves? If that’s what you’re saying I’ve lost what little respect I ever had for you. I’m curious as hell as what you do for a living. I’m going with landscaper or barista. Please enlighten us.
