This document contains two letters to the editor published in The Globe and Mail, discussing Polish history, anti-Semitism, and the Holocaust. The first letter, by Richard C. Lukas (published June 30, 1992), defends Poland against accusations of racially-based anti-Semitism, arguing for the existence of strong "philo-Semitic" forces and higher numbers of Jewish survivors due to Polish assistance during World War II. He challenges Steve Paikin's article, "Poland Striving To Shake Off An Anti-Semitic Past," and disputes the claim that death camps were primarily located in Poland due to Polish anti-Semitism. The second letter, by Eli Pfefferkorn (published July 24, 1992), responds to Lukas, accusing him of historical revisionism. Pfefferkorn references events like the Przytek and Wysockie-Mazowiecki pogroms and the anti-Jewish boycott by the Endeks to counter Lukas's assertions. He also disputes Lukas's statistics on Jewish survival and Polish rescuers, citing data from The Encyclopedia of the Holocaust and Yad Vashem, and shares his personal experience of facing danger from Poles in German-occupied Poland.
