Jewish Polish soldiers of General Anders deserted to the Israeli Army in 1942. Anders never punished anybody for this desertion. It is hard to count, but about 15% of Polish soldiers went to the Israeli army. Of 70,000 Polish soldiers about 4,000 went over to Israel. In Israel during the 1968 war Jewish soldiers gave out commands in Polish. Wladyslaw, this is broadly in line with my information, although 4,000 out of 70,000 is less than 6%. Regards, Stefan. ---------- From: "Wladyslaw Czapski" <biorytm@...> |

There was no Israeli Army nor Israel in 1942. The Polish army left USSR late in 1942 and went to Iraq. Large scale fighting between Jews and Arabs in PALESTINE starterd at the end of WWII (1944-45). Israel came into being in 1948. Deserter Begin headed one of the Jewish terrorist organisations - I think it was Irgun. 2000 Jews deserted the Polish army- this is 2.8%. A small number remained. The Polish Army Command did not pursue the deserters. The British were unhappy about this. Edward ----- Original Message -----

Granted there was no Israeli army at that time but "Irgun" and "Haghanah" existed, what would be better for them than to encourage any number of Jews in the Polish Army to desert as soon as they get to or near Palestine. They could contribute immensely to a guerrilla army and eventually to a new fledgling sate Paul To: <Kresy-Siberia@...> cc: Subject: Re: [Kresy-Siberia] FW: Zydzi w 1942 IRAN (Jews in 1942 "edtar" Iran) <edtar@bellatl antic.net> 21/10/01 15:08 Please respond to Kresy-Siberia Let's straightehn out the nonsense There was no Israeli Army nor Israel in 1942.
