Less anti-Semitism among Polish youths

Studies in Poland have shown that young Poles have fewer and fewer prejudices against Jews. The conservative daily Rzeczpospolita comments: "Anti-Semitism is not only a Polish problem. It exists all over the world in many different forms. But Poland is often considered an anti-Semitic country. It is true that a certain element of Polish society see Jews as a threat for Poland and the Polish people. Luckily this sort of mentality has long been pushed to the margins of society. This has been made possibly through Poland's opening up to the world, and also through education and investigation into those moments in our history of which we can be proud, as well as those deserving nothing but criticism. ... Let it be said that there can never be too much of this type of education."
