Zatem – point of view- w moim I tylko moim – moze błędnym rozumieniu to punkt widzenia na natur€ wojny – wojna jako selekcja naturalna- wojna jako realizacja tzw- przepraszam za te puste naduzywane słowo partykularnych celow.
Hitler mówił wielokrotnie w swoich tyradach dot. kwestii wojny o ogolnym / general point of view/ powołując się m.inn na Clausewitza oraz innych teoretyków/ i praktyków od wojny oraz o his personal point/s of view on war/ tu realizacja celów związanych z Lebensraumem/ Drang nach Osten etc. czyli po części przykrywka pod to, co sformułował już dość szczegółowo w swoich / points of view/ w Mein Kampf- co nie było traktowane poważnie, dopóki nie nastąpiła katastrofa.

Wróćmy do zdania
Próba polskiego spojrzenia na II WS.
Jaka próba ?
Odpowiedzi na pytania o naturę wojny / tej wojny?
Odpowiedzi na pytania o to jak PRZED wybuchem wojny Polska / represented its point of view in the event of the outbreak of war?

Proszę porównać czy i w jakich kontekstach pojawia się zwrot |point of view on war LUB Polish point of view on war.

Moja odpowiedź nie stanowi w ZADNYM STOPNIU próby kwestionowania odpowiedzi ze zwrotem / point of view.
Jest tylko i WYŁACZNIE próbą interpretacji kontekstu.
