Jewish collaboration with NKVD and Soviets
On 17 September 1939, the Soviet Union invaded Poland from the east, sixteen days after Germany invaded Poland from the west.
A Soviet campaign of political murders and other forms of repression, targeting Polish figures of authority such as military officers, police and priests, began with a wave of arrests and summary executions (wiki). It is estimated that the Soviets deported 1.5 million Poles to the Soviet interior in 4 waves of mass deportations. Many people today, even Poles have the incorrect opinion their missing relatives were due to German interdiction.
In Poland, terrible pogroms occurred against the Jewish peoples, many who had settle from Russia. (Jedwabne in Podlasie). Prosecutor Waldemar Monkiewicz wrote in his article "Extermination of Jewish settlements in the Bialystok region in the years of 1939-1944". In this article he presents a thesis that the burning of the Jews in the barn:
was conducted by a German special unit, under the command of a Gestapo member Wolfgang B?rkner, who was infamous for his role in the occupation of Warsaw, assisted by gendarmerie and military police. The latter participated merely in escorting the victims to the square in Jedwabne and in leading the convoy out of town, to the barn, where the Germans, having poured petrol on the walls, burnt around 900 men, women and children.
This fits well with the nazi atrocity propaganda but is hardly the truth, like most things holocaustian. Professor Gross after research concluded something quite different to the nazi atrocity, he said:
The Jedwabne Jews, who were Polish citizens, were murdered by the Polish community in Jedwabne, aided by the inhabitants of the surrounding villages. They murdered them by themselves, without the participation of the occupant - the Germans - who were merely passive observers or involved in filming the murders carried out solely by Polish hands.
Mariusz Wesolowski
The question is why Polish people would go on a rampage against their fellow countrymen, the Jews.
Historian Tomasz Strzembosz has written that the Jews collaborated with the NKVD.
Jews Executing Poles
What is more, the “guards” and “militias” springing up like mushrooms right after the Soviet attack were in large part made up of Jews. Nor is this all.
Jews committed acts of revolt against the Polish state, taking over towns and setting up revolutionary committees there, arresting and shooting representatives of the Polish state authorities, attacking smaller or even fairly large units of the Polish Army (as in Grodno). . It was armed collaboration, taking the side of the enemy, betrayal in the days of defeat.”

The Fifth Column
So it was in the first period, when the Polish state was still defending itself, when our army units were fighting and it seemed that not all was lost. The Jews then played the role of a “fifth column.” Later, things became much worse. Strzembosz cites the conclusions of Dr. Marek Wierzbicki as to who implemented the Bolshevik terror – of course the NKVD and, before that, the Red Army, but the miscellaneous guard formations and militias played a decisive role on an everyday basis. And their ranks were primarily filled with Jews. “Polish Jews in civilian clothes, with red bands on their arms and armed with guns also play large part in arrests and deportations.

That was the most drastic thing, but for the Polish community another glaring fact was the large number of Jews in all the Soviet agencies and institutions. . in the period September-December 1939, numerous arrests took place of those representatives of the Polish population who before the war filled high functions in the administration and political structures of the Polish state or who were very involved in community work. The local Jews, members of the temporary administration or militia, provided extensive assistance to the Soviet authorities in tracking down and arresting them.”
Jews Picked Out Poles For Execution
Why did this happen? What were the roots of this terrible hatred toward Poland and the cruel revenge on Poles? “It is true,” writes Strzembosz, “things were not going very well for the Jews in Poland. but still, Jews were not being deported to Siberia, shot, sent to concentration camps, or killed by hunger and slave labor. If they did not consider Poland to be their homeland, they still did not have to treat it as an invader and join its mortal enemy in killing Polish soldiers and murdering Polish civilians fleeing to the east. Nor did they have to take part in designating their neighbors for deportation.”

Revenge On Their Polish Neighbors
“Jews who had put up an archway greeted the Red Army. They changed the old town government and proposed a new one drawn from the local population (Jews and communists). They arrested the police, the teachers . . . They led the NKVD to apartments and houses and denounced Polish patriots.”

The Bandits Took Charge
Throughout Eastern Poland, local Jewish, Belorussian and Ukrainian communists formed militias and “revolutionary committees”. With the blessing of the Soviet invaders, they apprehended, robbed, and even murdered Polish officials, policemen, teachers, politicians, community leaders, landowners, and “colonists” (i.e. interwar settlers) – the so-called enemies of the people. They also plundered and set fire to Polish property and destroyed Polish national and religious monuments. Scores of murders of individuals and groups have been recorded.
Robbery of Polish property took on massive proportions with the spoils enriching the collaborators’ families and their communities.
One of the earliest and most hideous crimes was the murder of almost as many as fifty Poles in the village of Brzostowica Mala, near Grodno around September 20, before the Soviets were installed in the area.

Judges, Policemen, Teachers Were All Killed
While Brochowicz-Lewinski was imprisoned in Stolpce, an NKVD officer made the rounds in the company of his aide, a local Jew who identified the members of the Polish educated class, now the so-called enemies of the people, among whom he had lived for years, by their occupation: judge, teacher, policeman, civil servant, forest-ranger, landowner.

The Jews took similar liberties in the Baltic states and elsewhere as the expense of their neighbors. To their great dismay the loss of their protecting Soviet masters meant that karma was waiting around the corner.
