The Nation's Memory

Józef Franczak, the last of unwavering defenders of Poland against the communist tyranny died on 21 October 1963 in Majdan Kozic Górnych near Lublin. Few people know his story. The memory of people and matters of fundamental importance to Poland is carefully hidden and falsified.

The memory of murderers torturing and murdering the Polish patriots in communist prisons after the Second World War is equally carefully hidden. Why is nobody boasting of his/her grandfather or father issuing death sentences to Poland's defenders or shooting them in the back of the head?

We are the children and grandchildren of those who remained loyal to our country and did not sell out under most difficult circumstances. The Bolshevik Russia and the postwar communist regime in Poland persecuted them most viciously and with heretofore unknown perfidy. Today we are the target of savage attacks whose aim is to deprive us of dignity, to kill our souls, to destroy our reputation, to eliminate us from public life, and even to cause death.

This is what we have to say to the Polish junta.

If you have enough courage to murder souls and minds of the descendants of those who were faithful to Poland and to fundamental values of our civilization, then you should also have the courage to proclaim it publicly. Do announce it on television, on radio, in the newspapers. Do sign appropriate documents and issue open decrees instead of clandestine orders. You have total control over Poland. What are you afraid of? Your junta can do everything in Poland, right?

Go ahead, let your words agree with your deeds. Do act publicly, do not confer in secret. Do hold press conferences. Please tell everyone why you are applying psychological torture in schools and universities. Be proud of this invention. Please tell the world who taught you to use torture and why you are so extremely keen to conduct this criminal activity.

President of the Junta

The Economist article "A popular president" published October 14, 2013 about the current Polish president Bronislaw Komorowski ignores the most basic facts.

Mr. Komorowski is closely associated with the former communist military intelligence services. He was the only MP of his party, Civic Platform, voting against the reform of the military intelligence and counterintelligence services (WSI - Wojskowe Służby Informacyjne) on May 24, 2006. The military intelligence survived unchanged all those years after 1990 and was operating practically outside any civilian control. They were led by Moscow-educated officers.

According to the report published at the dissolution of WSI in 2007, the military counterintelligence had at least 115 agents located in the media. Thus it is no suprise that media do not criticise Komorowski at all. To the contrary. They do everything to convey positive image of Komorowski.

Among the founders of the Civic Platform are people involved in the communist intelligence. Some prominent members of the party held top positions in the post-1990 counterintelligence. For example, Konstanty Miodowicz became head of counterintelligence in November 1990. Miodowicz's father was a prominent member of the communist politburo and head of the communist trade unions.

Komorowski's advisor, often speaking for him in the media, is prof. Nałęcz, a former communist party member between 1970 and 1990.

Komorowski invited the communist dictator Wojciech Jaruzelski to attend his inauguration in 2010.

As for the program A Good Environment for the Family "containing 44 proposals to improve family life in Poland", my family can tell you the truth about it. We are being persecuted for sticking to the core human values. We belong to the social group that was the subject of the genocide by both the Nazi Germany and the Soviet Russia with its communist eager servants in Poland during WWII and later. Our basic human rights are routinely violated. My wife and I were subject of countless provocations in our workplaces.

In February and March 2012 I, my wife, and our daughter were simultaneously viciously attacked in our jobs and in our daughter's school. This was an attempt to liquidate all three of us simultaneously. The attack was meticulously prepared, coordinated and executed.

Mr. Komorowski represents the communist junta which became the post-communist junta. "So the president became a keen supporter of the armed forces and the family." Armed forces and family. Exactly.

The rest is just deception.

Communist Junta Becomes Postcommunist Junta

It is finally time to realize that the communist system was not broken at all. The invisible ties that bound together the armies of the communist party, the secret police, the military and everyone else in the power system of a communist country have not gone away. They stick together in perfect solidarity. They populate different political parties (quite an interesting story in itself, almost unimaginable in the old democracies of the West), they associate themselves with the church, they control the media, they occupy the vast majority of all the positions of power, they control the legal system.

So the communism was not really broken. The communist junta changed the external decorations, changed their dresses and the rhetoric, and started a new chapter where they and their offspring pretend to be capitalists. The new guys are the old guys. They continue to run the show. Once you readjust your perception and stop fooling yourself you can see it very clearly. You learn to recognize the obvious lies in the media. You recognize how many supposedly heated political debates are merely prearranged games supposed to impress the unsuspecting public and foreign observers that there is a genuine political debate and a genuine difference of opinion.

The communists understood very long time ago that in order to run a successful tyranny they needed to manufacture an artificial opposition made of their own ranks. So today the key figure in the Polish media is Adam Michnik, son of a communist who was convicted for being a Soviet spy in the 1930s. It boggles the mind how on earth this guy was praised for being a leader of the so called "democratic opposition" to communism. Similarly for Lech Walesa, a Solidarity leader who was in fact an informer of the communist secret police. Anyone who knows the realities of life under communism would have to conclude that it was impossible to really have any sort of underground political activities. The communist secret police knew details of anyone who did not identify him/herself with the communist state.

Psychological Terror as a Tool of Systematic Liquidation of Individuals and Families in Poland

Fundamental human rights are systematically violated in Poland.

(1) The persecution is politically motivated.

(2) Job-related documentation concerning certain individuals is falsified.

(3) The targeted individuals are denied access to the fabricated documentation, in violation of the Polish constitution and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

(4) This activity bears characteristic marks of an organized crime. This is an organized crime whose objective is to deprive dignity, to kill the victim's soul, to destroy the reputation of the attacked person and to forcefully remove the person from the public and the social spheres of life. This is the killing of the social personae, the killing of the social dimension of the human being. It is a crime and should be recognized as such.

(5) The psychological terror is used routinely in Poland.

(6) It is a continuation of totalitarian methods of control and terror used under the communist dictatorship prior to 1990. Currently the psychological terror is executed in the context of a political system that only pretends to be democratic.

(7) These activities have full approval and enthusiastic support of the governing circles.

(8) These campaigns of terror are carefully prepared, scripted, coordinated and executed.

Various public proclamations of adherence to democratic principles by the authorities of all levels in Poland are meaningless noise, whose aim is to deceive and to mask the criminal intent.

The communist regimes have designated in the past not only individuals but also entire social groups as "outlaws", denied them basic rights and persecuted them. The methods of terror ranged from outright murder to secret sabotage of the various spheres of the victim's activity, including both professional and private life.

Today the terror against the "outlaws", or "outcasts", continues to be the main line of the political cleavage. Journalists and researchers alike are somehow strangely unable to see this simple truth. Of course one of the reasons for this cognitive failure is their participation in the junta of deceivers.

The huge, overwhelming pathologies of the entire sphere of the public life in Poland can only be compared to the total falsification of reality in the communist dictatorships.

Die Zersetzung

The international media and the academic researchers are surprisingly slow and ineffective in revealing the full extent of the program of the psychological harassment and terror carried out by the communist regimes of Eastern Europe.

The failure to reveal even the most basic information about the program, its techniques and its extent is apparently not accidental.

The current version of the English wikipedia entry on Stasi, the East German secret police, contains the following description of die Zersetzung (version dated July 2012, accessed 1 October 2013):

The Stasi perfected the technique of psychological harassment of perceived enemies known as Zersetzung – a term borrowed from chemistry which literally means "decomposition".

By the 1970s, the Stasi had decided that methods of overt persecution which had been employed up to that time, such as arrest and torture, were too crude and obvious. It was realised that psychological harassment was far less likely to be recognised for what it was, so its victims, and their supporters, were less likely to be provoked into active resistance, given that they would often not be aware of the source of their problems, or even its exact nature. Zersetzung was designed to side-track and "switch off" perceived enemies so that they would lose the will to continue any "inappropriate" activities.
Tactics employed under Zersetzung generally involved the disruption of the victim’s private or family life. This often included psychological attacks such as breaking into homes and messing with the contents – moving furniture, altering the timing of an alarm, removing pictures from walls or replacing one variety of tea with another. Other practices included property damage, sabotage of cars, purposely incorrect medical treatment, smear campaigns including sending falsified compromising photos or documents to the victim's family, denunciation, provocation, psychological warfare, psychological subversion, wiretapping, bugging, mysterious phone calls or unnecessary deliveries [...]

This article about Stasi is a perfect example of disinformation. Take a look at the following sentence from the excerpt:

Tactics employed under Zersetzung generally involved the disruption of the victim’s private or family life.

This is of course not true. The target's professional life was attacked as well. This is a critical omission. Also many important references are left out. This is a disinformation. The author of the Stasi entry seems to be a Stasi sympathizer and protector.

Also the following sentence is not true:

Zersetzung techniques have since been adopted by other security agencies, particularly the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB).

Various forms of psychological attacks against a human being were invented by the Russian Bolsheviks themselves who transferred the method to the countries of Eastern Europe, which they occupied after WW2. The secret police of the communist regimes in those countries were subordinates of the Russian NKVD and later KGB or GRU.
