I believe, if we are careful texts written for FreeCiv could
be relatively truth: Since we live in different countries we are 
hopefully not infected completely by the same propaganda...


But, as I believe to know you Thomasz, you believe that
Holocaust was neccessary and there were no concentration
camps (KZ)...

...since you are biased by propaganda apparently common in Western
Poland currently, I do not think we both have to talk about that...

(Thomasz wake up: The rivers Oder and Neiße are the eastern border
 of Germany. Definitively. Anybody who tells something else tells
 you lies...)
