So moving! The narrator is talking about one of the women survivors who, as a child, was carried to the train station following her liberation by a young Polish priest who would become Pope John Paul II and now she is meeting him again! Amazing. RIP John Paul and long live Israel.

Look how he walks to them not they to him. He was a true compassionate creature who loved everyone. He met with everyone without preconditions. I get emotional every time I see his face. Swiety Natychmiast!!!!

I agree with you so much. We are all children of the same loving God. I hope Christians and Jewish people can find more ways to be united rather then divided. What the Church did in the past is horrible, but what we can do together in the future will be wonderful.

Tak ich szanowałeś a oni teraz nas atakują.

wrong i small majority did, in the 1500 century after king Jan Sobieski won over the Turks with his 30.000 army against 200.000, he invited all the jews to stay in Poland because there was no way for them to go, is that also an ignorant lie my brother?
May god be with you
