Jewish groups in Poland angered by comparison of Palestinian attack to Warsaw ghetto uprising The Nazis created the Jewish ghetto a year after invading Poland in 1939. They squeezed more than 400,000 Jews into a walled-off section of the downtown. As the Germans began deporting most of the ghetto’s population to the Treblinka extermination camp, a few hundred Jews took up arms in April, 1943. The fighters held out for almost a month before the Germans regained control and razed the ghetto. A year later, some 45,000 members of the Polish underground launched an attack on the occupiers. The resistance hoped for support from the Red Army, which was closing in on Warsaw, but the Soviet troops halted their advance, allowing the Germans to crush the uprising within two months. About 150,000 people died, largely through mass executions, and the Germans destroyed the capital. Comparing those events to the situation in Gaza hits a nerve among many Poles. theglobeandmail.com
