The guests on the program Salon Journalarski dissected the attacks on John Paul II and the Tomasz Lis program, where they, together with Roman Giertych, speculated that PiS had prepared an assault on the Polish pope and then defended him.
There are memes showing Jaroslaw Kaczynski seated opposite Mr. Fogiel, with the caption in every version: young man, do something. At times, Kaczynski is imagined telling Mr. Fogel to call Wiertnicza and publish the report. A sharp, calculating Kaczynski is portrayed as someone who can maneuver any situation, while others appear indecisive and disorganized.
Piotr Gursztyn, a historian, commented on the matter.
Malgorzata Zyra, also a historian invited to the papal march, which is planned for Warsaw on April 2, expressed a wish that the event would demonstrate the nation’s loyalty to John Paul II and affirm Poland’s stance.
She noted that the idea grew from a feeling of being unfairly treated and dismissed as if it were just rain.
Catholic opinion in Poland has mobilized, as Peter Semka pointed out, and the reactions from Lis and Giertych to the attack on John Paul II function as a tribute to PiS and to Catholics across the country.
The responses from Tomasz Lis and Roman Giertych are viewed as a showing of appreciation. Catholic public opinion in Poland has mobilized in large numbers for demonstrations in defense of John Paul II. The year is an election year, and PiS acted, while PSL also behaved with restraint, and PO was left uncertain. Some noted that Donald Tusk momentarily forgot the right words when commenting on the man whose hand he had kissed, a gesture that drew praise.
A very successful mobilization of Catholic public opinion took place. This Catholic sentiment must learn to mobilize when what matters to it is attacked. It will be a long campaign to protect the good name of John Paul II.
