Ghetto in Warsaw (not Warsaw Ghetto) was governed by German appointed local leaders. Read Czerniakow diary... Police were composed of its residences also. Mostly this police was tasked with rounding and delivering their compatriots to the depos and transports and concentration camps. They were the last men standing, same of them decided at the end to fight for their own life, as most have already have perished. Same hid or escaped. Those who could speak the polish language, have changed names and identity. (only about 10% of the diaspora could use the polish language despite multigenerational residence on polish territory) Were they brave? Same of them survived, ended up in the US, soviets repression apparatus, or Israel, ... like the wife of the Ghetto leader Czerniakow.

@@darkheathen6765 Public education isn't failing because of lack of care from parents, it's failing because of special interest groups and teachers unions screwing it up. There's a reason schools have textbooks from only one or two publishers and standardized tests from just a handful of companies. They get paid by the government to get children to absorb and regurgitate carefully selected curriculum and punish anyone who falls out of line. The literary textbook industry is one huge scam that siphons billions of dollars a year by yearly releases of the same book that slightly alter the information so that previous years can't be used or easily be used, forcing students and schools to buy new books. It's why charter and private schools have exploded in popularity with parents, and why special interest groups are trying to shut them down by lobbying the government. School used to be a place to go and learn. Now it is just a place of indoctrination to teach kids how to be good little zombies and do what they're told no questions asked.

The Jewish Military Union Flag (ZZW) is a bicolor flag similar to that of the Polish flag, but replacing the crimson red with blue. The white flag with the Star of David was the flag of the Judenrat. The Jewish Fighting Organization (ZOB) flag split the difference having a star of David over a background of the blue and white bicolor. Nonetheless, I appreciate you bringing up the ZZW. As a Revisionist Zionist Organization, which worked with the Polish Home Army (AK), it was largely erased from historiography by ZOB members of the working with Polish communists, and Israeli Socialists. Similarly, anti-communist Jewish partisan organization have been largely written out of history, in part because the Soviets weren't above liquidating them.

As someone who once worked in military procurement, I found the image that forms the thumbnail for this episode interesting; the four visibly armed soldiers in the picture are carrying three different types of submachineguns. The soldier on the left, just behing the main grouo, is carrying either a Finnish Suomi or a Russian PPD-40; the two in steel helmets flanking the officer have MP41s - wooden-stocked versions of the standard MP40; and the soldier on the right is armed with an MP28. The SS had its very own supply chain, and seemed to have no objections to its soldiers using an eclectic mix of infantry weapons.

"The flag was worth a hundred machine guns in a situation like this". Very true. This is one of the great mysteries of humanity, as to how merely the presence of one's own colors flying above the chaos of battle can steel the resolve of those fighting under it, even against hopeless odds. Its psychological impact cannot be underestimated.

The Polish Home Army, the AK, was far from well armed. Especially in the city where storage was harder to organize than out in the countryside. The shortages would become very pronounced in 1944, when the AK launched the Warsaw Uprising. Hence the AK was in no position to supply any large quantities of arms to the Jewish insurgents.

As people around the world tend to confuse these two events, many of them (including presidents of powerful countries) actualy think that there was only one uprising- the Getto one and all the atrocities from the polish uprising (like 50 000 polish civilians murdered by the germans in just 2-3 days) are often credited to the getto uprising.

The Warsaw ghetto revolt is an excellent illustration of what Michael Walsh describes in _Last Stands: Why Men Fight when All Is Lost_. As military historian Victor Davis Hanson notes: "Last Stands is a thoroughly original study of doomed or trapped soldiers often fighting to the last man, from Thermopylae to the Korean War. But Michael Walsh’s book is more than a military history of heroic resistance. It is also a philosophical and spiritual defense of the premodern world, of the tragic view, of physical courage, and of masculinity and self-sacrifice in an age when those ancient virtues are too often caricatured and dismissed. A much needed essay on why rare men would prefer death to dishonor, and would perish in the hope that others thereby might live." Mark Felton might want to do a series on each of the last stands featured in that book.
