I'll change it. I wasn't intending to offend.

What should I have said? The leader of the government-in-exile?

I'll go back and change it to give his real title so as not to look like I'm mocking the position of Prime Minister of Poland.

I'm sorry for an overreaction. It's just such kind of stuff is really getting on my nerves (Hans Frank was a war criminal installed by the occupying power. Poland had a legitimate government, recognized by the world, commanding the largest forces from all occupied countries and the biggest underground in Europe).

It's ok, you're right, given that Hans Frank was a truly monstrous person it's not the kind of thing to be flippant about.
