In 1988 PAC was one of the backers of the National Polish American - Jewish American Council , however in 1996 PAC withdrew from the council following objections to the statements of its president Edward Moskal , described by some as antisemitic . In a letter to the Polish president , Moskal attacked " the submissiveness of the Polish authorities with respect to demands raised by Jews " in regards to the return of confiscated Jewish property and an apology for the Kielce pogrom . Following the incident , Jan Karski , who had also been attacked by PAC following a piece he penned in Trybuna Ludu , resigned from PAC
