the poles have specific historical reasons to hate both the nazis
why? Weren't the poles killing ethnic Germans which prompted a response from Germany?
Yup. Afraid the poles were churchils right hand in starting war against Germany. The silly cunts fell for the stupid jewish plot thought up by churchil's handler, barach.
Why? For no reason at all!

>After German Selbstschutz snipers fired on retreating Polish troops, there was a Polish reaction against the German minority and then the retaliatory execution of Polish hostages by the Wehrmacht and Selbstschutz, after the fall of the city. All these events resulted in the deaths of both German and Polish civilians. The Polish Institute of National Remembrance found and confirmed 254 Lutheran victims, assumed to be German civilians, and 86 Catholic victims, assumed to be Polish civilians, as well as 20 Polish soldiers. Approximately 600–800 Polish hostages were shot in a mass execution in the aftermath of the fall of the city as a "revenge". After the Germans took over the city, they killed 1,200–3,000 Polish civilians in retaliation, as part of Operation Tannenberg. The event and place of execution became known as the Valley of Death. The murdered included the president of Bydgoszcz, Leon Barciszewski. Fifty Polish prisoners of war from Bydgoszcz were later accused by Nazi Sondergericht Bromberg summary courts for taking part in "Bloody Sunday" and shot.

>Bydgoszcz (Bromberg) was part of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth until 1772, when it was annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia during the First Partition of Poland. As a part of Prussia, the city was affected by the unification of Germany in 1871 and became part of the German Empire. It would remain a part of the German Empire until the end of World War I. In February 1920, the Treaty of Versailles awarded the city and the surrounding region to the Second Polish Republic (the administrative region of Pomeranian Voivodeship). This resulted in a number of ethnic Germans leaving the region for Germany. Over the interwar period, the German population decreased even further.
Yes they were and apparently it's the Anglo's fault.
They may have been, or maybe not. I dont think it's really possible to know given so much time and propaganda.
However that was not the primary reason for Germany's desire to expand east. Germany's heartland had reached peak population and was lacking in natural resources. They wanted to become a superpower and regarded this as an existential question, so it was essential for them to capture silesia, czechia and other parts of eastern europe. Poland was in the way. Their requirement to invade Poland would have persisted irrespective of what happened in the Danzig corridor.
Poland also had core issues at play. They had gone from being a part of a huge empire with plenty of exposure to trade, to being a newly independent state with no access to trade routes except through the territory of their enemies. As such, they had to retain Danzig and could not allow a german nationalist movement to return it to German control. If they did they would be permanently weakened and their ability to sustain their independence would wither and die within decades.
Convincing the Polish that Hitler was right is a bit like convincing the Irish that Cromwell made some good points. It's just not going to happen.
listen the poles were raping and dismembering the Germans that were in the newly adjusted borders that magically had become poland. This was all done thanks to WWI.
