Lezajsk Under German Occupation

Images of the town of Leżajsk, south-eastern Poland, under the German occupation. Many of its residents (civillians) were brutally murdered during WW2 by the Germans. Almost all Germans supported their Fuhrer in one way or another, but many sources use the term Nazis to talk about the people responsible for the war and all evil done at the time, which implies that only a small group of Germans was to blame. And that is definitely not true!! Why don't they call a spade a spade and use the term "the Germans"! The Germans murdered people in this town and throughout Poland, brought death and destruction, killed millions in Auschwitz and other concentration camps. As you watch the movie you have the opportunity to see some of those "masters of the world" or members of the superior race as they would call themselves.

hi, fajne zdjęcia, skąd to jest ten filmik ? te zdjęcia granic w którym dokładnie miejscu sa zrobione ? bo zapewne niedaleko Sanu ale od strony Starego Miasta ? I co to za mały kościólek lub cerkiew mniejwiecej tak w 97 sek filmiku ?

Jest to kaplica znajdująca się aktualnie na cmentarzu miejskim. Zdjęcie granicy zostało prawdopodobnie zrobione przy moście na Sanie od strony St.Miasta.

Really dislike the music. You should change it.

@b0gdaan: Na pewno nie. Granica tam, to jakieś nieporozumienie. Polecam spojrzeć na Traktat o granicach i przyjaźni z 28.09.1939 r (a konkretnie załącznik do traktatu oraz tajny protokół dodatkowy). Granica biegła po Sanie tylko do ujścia Lubieni.

so this is what my grandparents would have seen living in Leżajsk at the time. very interesting.

On a side note about how the description goes on about the germans killing a lot of people, some polish people joined the side of the germans. I remember a story that my babcia told me how after the germans left a bunch of polish people rounded up all the Ukrainian people which her brother was married to with children. They basically burned them all alive.

just saying war isn't simple bad vs good.

ten kościółek to nie żadna cerkiew, tylko kapliczka na cmentarzu Leżajskim. Teraz te drzewka sa wysokie, ale to jest to.
