Apparently some Poles wish they could have had the 1945 borders in the west and the 1939 borders in the east - a veritable Polish empire. And they expected Roosevelt and Churchill to just give it to them.
What the heck is wrong with an exclave that can be accessed over the sea??? What about Alaska, Sicily, Northern Ireland, Hokkaido, Zealand, etc. pp. ??? None of them think that their Nation is butchered unless they create land bridges that connect their parts.Demographics. The larger Polish populations were in West Prussia as opposed East Prussia, hence the Corridor. It was the botched solution listening to Wilson's self determination and head-in-the-clouds 14 Points wrought.

Heard of them but do not know much details about them. Antisemitism was pretty wide spread in Eastern and Central Europe. Well all over Europe. I guess there was more then plain antisemitism behind it. Just read something on Slovak national awaking and some of the leaders were apparently antisemetites. Their reason at the time apparanetly was Jewish population sided with Hungarians, quickly Magyarized. With magyarization of not Hungarians going on and not Magyars treated as citizens of second or third class it didn't help.Yikes, reading up on them in Wikipedia now. Such antisemitism.
