GERMAN POLAND
Dateline: 12 October 2003
INTRODUCTION
This article shows very clearly
the aggressive anti-Polish results of the systems of "European
Citizenship", "freedom of movement and investment" and
above all of the EU's system of Regions which were all cleverly constructed
in order to promote the expansion of German interests to the East- just
as the writers of this website have been warning the British political
Establishment for at least 10 years. Such aggression towards Poland
and the Czech Republic is now possible because successive generations
of British politicians have succumbed to and financed a European Community
which has destroyed the very concept of the nation State as a defence
against political aggression, the concept of national currencies as
a barrier against economic imperialism and the reality of the sovereignty
of peoples as a break on anti-democratic tyranny.
The "Landsmannschaft Ostpreussen"
(East Prussian section of the Association of German Expellees) is holding
a congress in Cologne this weekend which seeks to interfere in the internal
affairs of the Polish State. The "Expellees" assume the right
to determine in Germany community representatives whom they will allocate
to Polish local councils. Such actions impose a twin sovereignty on
internal Polish affairs. Despite far reaching consequences more than
30 Polish provincial parliamentarians and Mayors intend to take part
in the "Congress for Community Politics" organised by the
East Prussians. (NB It may seem odd that Poles should aid this blatant
attempt to re-establish German occupation in North East Poland but it
is a poor area and collaboration could be profitable!)
The independently created representative
organs of German citizens which have been founded in Germany (Homeland
Regional Communities) claim to be regional authorities just as they
existed during the Nazi period (as "Kreise"). These authorities
lost any legal basis at the time of the German surrender on 8th May
1945 and were dissolved by the Allies. Putative successor organisations
were forbidden. Only the Polish State has legal representative power
in the former East Prussia.
FANCIFUL CREATIONS
The fanciful creations of the "Homeland Local Communities"
of the German expellees cannot even claim to be a kind of community
in exile of the former German inhabitants of East Prussia since the
totality of the former East Prussian citizens have never been called
to vote, not least because it would be neither practical nor politically
possible to do so. Rather the "Community representatives"
of the German "Homeland Local Communities" act according to
delegatory powers which plainly contradict democratic principles.
Nevertheless the "Expellees"
claim that their fanciful representative organs will complement the
legal authorities of the Polish State. Both are "regional bodies
which represent the former and present inhabitants of the locality"(1)
ODER NEISSE REGIONS
Equally presumptuous are the actions of those Polish community representatives
who by travelling to the Cologne congress support the claims of the
German "Expellees". Instead of calling them representatives
of Poland they are termed "Members of the Polish Administrations
in the Oder Neisse Regions". This terminology is based on illegal
demands of several German Governments according to which the Western
Territories of Poland still belong to Germany (by describing them
as "Oder Neisse Regions under Polish administration).
WELCOME IN COLOGNE
Despite numerous assertions that touch on the foreign policy concerns
of the German State and which threaten the peaceful co-existence of
Poles and Germans the "East Prussian Congress" is being welcomed
in Cologne. As the organisers announce several German Parliamentarians
are expected from Berlin. The congress is the third meeting of its kind
in three years.
