BREAKING:
The Polish Embassy in Washington D.C. slams Tucker Carlson for distorting the truth about Nazi Germany’s invasion of Poland in 1939 and justifying it:
“I’m outraged by the false and deeply troubling statements you made regarding the outbreak of the Second World War during your recent conversation with Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg.
You justified Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland in 1939 claiming that "Hitler said 15% of Poland was once Germany and it was given to Poland at the Treaty of Versailles. That was German territory with Germans in it."
This statement constitutes a colossal insult to the millions of victims of Nazism, including hundreds of thousands of American soldiers who had been killed or wounded while liberating Europe from the occupation by the Third Reich.
Furthermore, your remark that "the UK had nothing to do with it at all" is also far from the historical truth.
The declaration of war on Germany by the UK and France was not merely a political obligation of the allies.
Had London and Paris not declared war on the Third Reich, they would have been attacked anyway.
Hitler was driven by the idea of conquering the world and destroying all democratic states.
As an American journalist who enjoys the democratic right to the freedom of speech, you have now become an apologist for Adolf Hitler.
In doing so, you resort to lies, completely falsifying the documented historical record.
Let me therefore remind you of the indisputable facts.
Nazi Germany's attack on Poland on September 1st, 1939 was a meticulously planned and brutal war of aggression.
Hitler's objective was the complete destruction of the Polish state and the physical extermination of its population, followed by a continued bloody conquest of the world.
Hitler acted in collusion with another totalitarian criminal, Joseph Stalin.
Together, they planned what is known as the fourth partition of Poland, set out in the secret protocol of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, which paved the way for the tragedy of millions of people in Central and Eastern Europe, including the near-total extermination of Europe's Jewish population.
I demand that you immediately and publicly retract and apologize for these deceitful and disgraceful statements.
Nazi propaganda cannot be rehabilitated under the guise of free speech, nor should the freedom of speech be used to desecrate the memory of the victims of the Second World War.
History must not be distorted. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”
