Polish PM cancels Israel visit amid new Holocaust tensions
Netanyahu made an off-hand comment,'Poles cooperated with Nazis'
17 February, 19:00Netanyahu made an off-hand comment last week during a Middle East conference in Warsaw that "Poles cooperated with the Nazis" - wording suggesting some Poles during the German occupation of Poland participated in killing Jews.
He was initially quoted by the Jerusalem Post as saying "the Poles," which could be taken as blaming the entire Polish nation.
Both Netanyahu's office and the newspaper say he was misquoted in an editing error, but the Polish government said it was not satisfied. (ANSA-AP).
