read this quotation in first paragraph of article...
Though there were some hiccups before the final deal was struck, a relieved Prime Minister Jerzy Buzek told former president Lech Walesa, just before the start of the Papal Mass: The NATO air raids on Yugoslavia were called off six hours ago. This is a good sign, especially with the Holy Father in Poland. Prayers were surely answered.
From this part of article and from whole story you can learn that pro-NATO Polish government was in panic because of arrival of Pope in Poland which has now become hostile country on Serbians. That kind of politics isn’t something what Pope approved. It was not on the line of Polish tradition. Polish government was too much cooperative with NATO over attacks on Serbians and even risked to confront Pope John Paul II (read- Polish public) who had great influence in Poland.
For sure, in that stage of Yugoslav crisis Pope was already informed that NATO and Croats/Bosnian Muslims/Albanians as their satellites collaborate with mujaheedines of Arab Islamic league to re-model strategical situation in the region and that Serbs resist to that process. So, Pope John Paul II obviously wanted to do something on his own, to by-pass German schemes on Balkan and to support Racowie.
In other words, if Pope John Paul II wasn`t ready to support expansion of German (NATO was just tool) sphere of influence on Balkan, we becoming aware which kind of people rule Poland back in that days and today. Those people are people loyal to German, not to Polish interests. Same way how they taken part in splitting in Serbia, those traitors in Polish leadership would tomorrow accept splitting of Poland itself.
See this part...
Nationalist Jan Lopuszanski, of a small Catholic right-wing group, made his warning even more explicit. If, today, NATO's putative right to be a judge of other nations and their governments and to enforce these decisions by way of violence is recognized, this right may tomorrow be directed against any nation in the world, Poland included, he warned. He apparently forgot, among other things, that Poland was now a NATO member.
Of course, words of Catholic represent in Polish parliament are on the line of Pope`s (Catholic circles in Poland) suggestions. So, he defend Serbians and criticize NATO. Note what he said among else
`this right may tomorrow be directed against any nation in the world, Poland included,`. We can conclude that he point on official Polish politics as trecherous. Similar thing already happened in Slovakia. Governmant almost collapsed when tried to act against Serbs. On the pressure from parliament and Slovakian public, Slovak governmant stayed loyal to Serbians, no matter all NATO pressure. Slovakia managed to deflect from trechery but, in Poland traitors still rule, no matter that Polish public support Serbs.
Anyway the Vatikan showed much better attitude during this war than during the WW2 when it openly supported the ustashi.
sure, now one Pole was head of Vatican
Only good Christ know how John Paul II suffered encircled with German intrigues and still He managed to balance. On the scene was conflict of two concepts in approach to Catholicism. Catholicism for Germans always was tool for their imperialism/hegemonism/imperialism, while Poles being Slavs, were able to fully understand human side of Catholic learning.
Indeed, Poles are best what Catholicism have. That’s why I from long time ago taken stance among Serbs, that it must be allowed to Poland to solve our problems with Vatican and that Serbs need to count on Poles in decisive moments. After all, that is in tradition of our relationship throughout history.
Why Poland wouldn’t be Slavic window in Catholic world? Let representatives of Polish Catholics take part in teams for negotiations which Orthodox/Protestant Churches from Slavic countries sending to Vatican. Let Poles speak in the name of Orthodox/Protestant Slavs, with potential of whole Slavic world behind them. Imagine how such a development can increase Polish influence over German lobby in Vatican (in Catholic world, in general). Let Poland profit for being both- Slavic and Catholic. It`s all right, as long as all Slavs prosper and as long as Mother Slavija smile. All for Mother
