The new issue of the weekly magazine “Sieci” deals with the subject of the film “The Green Border” by Agnieszka Holland, which was awarded at the Venice Festival and in which… “Poles are shown as guilty of the Holocaust. This statement contains no exaggeration.” “In this picture, immigrants are like Jews, Belarusians are like indifferent Germans, and the worst are the Poles,” writes Jakub Augustyn Maciejewski in the weekly.
Articles from the current issue can be found below subscription to the Friends Network.
“‘The Netherlands sees us as Nazis’
This is a production with negative connotations for Poland, showing immigrants as educated and good people, and portraying Poles in the worst light, like Nazis from death camps.
Jakub Augustyn Maciejewski notes in the article “Holland sees us as Nazis” that the entire tone of the film, “(…) shots, light and landscapes resemble shots from German concentration camps.”
When uniformed officers from the “Green Border” push a crowd of civilians toward the Belarusian side, we see barbed wire, searchlights illuminating the nightlight, rabid dogs biting refugees until they bleed, and sadists from Poland bludgeoning them. The similarity with Auschwitz is not coincidental
– writes Maciejewski.
Maciejowski writes that “The Green Border” is a film that not only distorts reality and defames the border guard and Poland. It is also a film that clearly indicates the political preferences of the Netherlands, even though film critics stubbornly claim that this is not true.
At one point in the plot, Julia’s friend (Agata Kulesza) reveals that she fears the consequences of helping refugees, but she has proof that she is a good person: “I voted for Civic Platform,” she says . (…) activists also mock the press conference of government members on illegal immigration. The names of the ministers are mentioned: Kamiński and Wąsik. If we combine this with a modern heroine who votes for PO and a frustrated Bogdan (Stuhr) who calls the patriots marching on November 11th “Nazis”, are we still supposed to think this is a universal film about humanity? After all, Holland herself said after the Venice Film Festival that she first wanted to make a documentary, but the refugees had to remain silent, so she made a feature film. However, this is an image that distorts reality and slanders the border guard and Polish society

“‘Poles are afraid of Tusk’
Maciej Wąsik, Deputy Minister of the Interior and Public Administration, in a conversation with Marek Pyza and Marcin Wikła (“Poles are afraid of Tusk”), says, among other things: the issuance of visas to Poland, which were allegedly issued illegally for a bribe.
Many foreign ministers had people trying to do business with visas. The CBA and ABW conducted proceedings in these types of cases many times (for example in 2009 or 2011 – when Radosław Sikorski was head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs). Today, the agency, which PO politicians like to refer to even if they want to solve it in principle, is investigating this issue in detail. It concerns about 200 cases of issuing visas, and not – as the opposition says – bringing thousands of illegal immigrants here. This is total nonsense. And it was the government services, the CBA and the Public Prosecution Service that stopped this practice and prosecuted the perpetrators. Meanwhile, real illegal migrants can be seen in Lampedusa. And it was PO that wanted to admit masses of people like them to Poland through forced relocation
– appoints the Deputy Minister.
When asked what the residents of the northern part of Mazovia think about the PO leader, Wąsik openly says that they are afraid of Tusk and what an opposition victory could bring:
Poles fear unemployment and that social programs that are worth more to them than money will be taken away. We not only gave people 500+, we also gave them dignity, which was previously denied them. (…) Tusk’s Poles do not believe. They fear that he will play his game only for his own interests, and unclear connections will always be more important to him than the common good. They will not soon forget his escape to Brussels. They say it must have cost Poland a lot. Tusk was far from independent and people remember that. He played incomprehensible games with Putin, which today need to be investigated and explained. On the other hand, we saw enormous dependence on Angela Merkel, with even internal Polish decisions being consulted with her. This also remains in the memory.
““No leader, no ambition, no success”
Cezary Kowalski, in the article “No leader, no ambition, no success”, comments on the situation of the Polish national football team after the defeat against Albania.
He points out that Poles placed a lot of trust in the former coach of the Polish national football team and hoped that he would help us build a strong team. The Portuguese assured from the start that he would have strong ties with the country on the Vistula River and made many lofty statements. The reality would be completely different and brutally expose Santos’ duplicity.
For two months I tried to get an interview with Santos, but despite the help of people from the Polish Football Association, it didn’t work out. For a simple reason. In Poland this practically did not exist. He only appeared at the most important league matches from the start, when his advisors told him that his absence would be perceived very negatively.
– writes Kowalski.
Kowalski also writes about the problems of Polish players who cannot be properly motivated to play. He wonders why they play well at foreign clubs, but not in a shirt with an eagle on the chest.
The image of our team after losing the first goal in Moldova or Albania was depressing. Players from Barcelona, Juventus, Napoli, Arsenal or Roma, i.e. the biggest European clubs with which they have already won a lot and have years of achievements behind them, started to tremble in front of one of the lowest ranked teams from Europe (only San Marino, Andorra and Gibraltar are weaker than Moldova and Liechtenstein). They were paralyzed and their opponent, seeing this fear, began attacking them more and more, leveling the score and finally scoring, capturing his historic victory.
