28. Isn't this the opinion of a Polish newspaper critic - not Poland itself?
Because some Poles happen to compare F-911 to a Hitlerian propaganda film, it doesn't mean that every Pole and Poland itself feels this way. I would imagine that there is an entire spectrum of views about the war and about Michael Moore. I receive several European TV programs through my satellite dishes and note that there is no uniform Polish view, or British view, or French view. For example, before the Iraq war, I saw hour after hour of debate on French television, where an entire spectrum of views on the history of Iraq and the pros and cons of invasion were discussed. There were leftists who hated Saddam and wanted him out and leftists who opposed the war and there were right-wingers who opposed Bush and the invasion and there was everything in between. There were French Jewish thinkers both pro and con the war and the same with French Arab thinkers. I saw some knock-down drag-out arguments that convinced me that in each country they have differences of opinion just like we have here in the United States.
