The territory and the population switched very often there. Look at the maps and the development from 1900 on. I read a book once, where the mistreatment of the germans by the polish have been explained in more detail and shit didn't start with hitler only, but way before. Also don't forget that poland had got allied military guarantees for support in case of an attack and they might have felt save to fuck with the germans because of a false sense of security. So, if the stuff I've read in that book long time ago is true, germans on polish territory lived in real danger way before 1939.
