This man is so noble. His interview in Claude Lanzmann’s “Shoah” was devastating.
His closing words about the message of how big crimes start with small hatred can’t be more true in today’s times
I see this in the USA with the " underclass" so quickly being priced out of a roof over their heads.
Quickly, the people still housed , point at the homeless as a "leper class" and you can see the blame and dehumanizing happening.
Much of it is fear that they may be next, or arrogance in thinking they have their act together, so they will be fine.
Never forget God. You will keep your soul.
Q
This man's courage is immeasurable.

A wiser man couldn't have expressed such eloquence of things. Whether it was good or bad of things he heard or saw. May it make us think on lucky we are to hear this account of historical events.
Great quote 42:24 "The Jews had no chance during the war. They were doomed because, on the allied side, they had tremendous issues: saving humanity, unconditional surrender, destruction of German war potential, ..., and on the Jewish side, they did not have their own country, they had nobody, they had no army, they had no representative in the inter-allied war council. They had no voice. You understand? "
A great man, placed here by God, to serve his purpose. As we all are.
a treasure to polish society, a hero to humanity, an example of integrity to be learned from.
A member of the Triumvirate, with Pilecki and Sendler.
Heroes Beyond Borders.
Amazing account of the meeting with President Roosevelt at: 48:24
Roosevelt cared more about the fate or horses in Poland then Jews being murdered by the Nazis as detailed by Karski
@@danlivni2097 by the Germans.
He speaks just before that.....
He said....he was a nobody.....he was a tape recorder.
Poor man.....such guilt, the messenger always takes it.
He spoke to all so many of them...
Then after , in this interview he speaks....
He felt disgusted ...they said we didn't know....
They knew.
Cześć i Wieczna Chwała Bohaterom Podziemia.

What a Extraordinary Human!
Sad he's gone out of the world now.
The Lord has said we should cry at a birth and laugh at a death.
It's been too hard for many.
God save us🙏
HERO!!!!!!!!!
next time you spew your hate onto someone, try not to remove your own comments from the discussion
Also read Jan Karski’s book ‘Story of a secret state’.
Some of the comments are in Polish. I wish I knew what they said. I am sure they are very insightful.

I love these interviews but the interviewers coughing is annoying me much. It’s not the first time.
Stay home if you are having a cold
Poland 💪
Wyluzuj nacjonalisto. Ostatnie kilka minut od 1:06:00 Karski mówi do takich jak ty. Szkoda że jesteście cebulowi pseudopatrioci za głupi żeby zrozumieć o czym mówi ten wielki człowiek, prawdziwy Polak.
Yes..Poland is a very strong nation now who kept their identity...not letting the enemies of Christianity in the front or back door with open arms unlike Germany and France and even England as well as some others...Europe looks nothing like it did b4 n after WW2! What were these leaders thinking!? GOD BLESS POLAND!!!
@@handle1603 Ty też wyluzuj nacjonalisto. A "Niepodległa Polska" to była kilka lat temu, teraz żyjesz w dyktatorskim Kaczystanie.
@@marcinb4647 Kaczynski nie jest moim idealem, ale Lewckistan to choroba umyslowa. Idz sie leczyc razem z Lempart, Babcia Kasia i Bartem Staszewskim.
What a profoundly mature and insightful remark. Name-calling is for children. I guess when you have no facts to bolster your argument, you resort to name-calling. I stand by my credentials, research and published writing on the subject.
Karski narrowly escaped Katyń massacre where soviets murdered other elite like himself.
He changed uniforms with a regular enlisted soldier, not knowing what was planned for the Polish nobility, government higher ups and military officers and commanders. His story is one of the most compelling, intriguing stories from WWII and the Holocaust. What an extremely intelligent man who could recite almost entire books of poetry from memory.
Oh Nooooo....why do you keep letting this interviewer keep her job...she is terrible! I am aware these are old tapes...and it's such a shame as she asks impertinent questions! It's an insult to the person she's interviewing!
Renee Firestone is a Holocaust survivor.
Oh Nooooo...yourself! The interviewer, Renee Firestone, is very skilled at what she does in this historic document. None of her questions should be considered "impertinent", merely probing in scope and correct in tone. She debriefed Professor Karski in a humane and professional way.
He did not participate personally in saving Jews or hiding their identities from Germans. Some Poles, especially catholic priests wished hide the Jews, they really had saved Jewish lives. The number of Polish The Righteous Among The Nations has reached to 1000 in the Yad Vashem registry.
More than 6000
Worst interviwer ever for such an important matter. Too close to the microphone interrumpting the flow of the intervju.
He looks like he needs a large meal 🥘
Jews were welcome in many European nations, including Denmark, Holland, Czechoslovakia, Romania and Hungary. There were many Righteous Among Nations there. Many other countries tolerated Jews, but denied them the same privileges and occupations as Christians. Jews were allowed to live in Poland, but the population by and large did not like them.
Welcome… read a proper history book. Never heard of anti Judaism
* As Catholics , not simply Christians.
Christian Catholicism and the intolerance it spreads towards non-Catholic people still remains a large political and social instrument in the hands of Polish clergy. A 1000 years of brainwashing won't just go away so easily. Karski, being a Catholic and at the same time not being a hypocrite, hateful person is in a minority. This is a man of exceptional moral integrity. They don't make them like that anymore.
if you say that they were not liked, why would they prefer to live in Poland than elsewhere?
It couln't have been that bad for Jews in Poland since there was the biggest Jewish population in the world there before the war. I don't know about Poles liking or disliking Jews in those days, but from what I know Jews liked to keep themselves separate, for example of the whole pre-war Jewish population in Poland only 10% spoke Polish, so it must have been hard to keep any dialogue in those days.
What are you talking about
@@lauchzwiebel He is right mate. Don' t even argue.
exactly, most did not assimilate, disrespected Poles
@@allabiel3340 not assimilating is not a form of disrespect!!! Are you crazy???
Mareczku, w dupie byłeś, gówno widziałeś i gówno wiesz, i sam się orasz. Ale może jesteś rówieśnikiem Karskiego i żyłeś w tamtych czasach i stąd pochodzi twoja wiedza na temat stosunków polsko żydowskich.
