Polish - Soviet Brotherhood in Arms.

Listen to Arkona, u will hear the glorification and passion of what it means to be Slavic. As a Celt, I like this music. It has soul and drive.

Look for commonalities, not divisions!!

Not true.
They planned to create hordes of primitive Polish labor force somewhere behind the Ural Mountains.

Then .. Russians were not victims of communism.
Rather creators of it.

The Russians championed communism for sure. The tie is inextricable. The problem is, the gulf is so entrenched now that we rely on the good judgment of people to see that there are commonalities. There must be identification of common ground. I live in Poland and I think that hatred has been etched into the psyche of the many. Hatred is more of an emotional response than a rational one tho.

Lukasz no one is arguing that Soviets were equal to Germans, the point is however that ultimately Russia was an enemy of Poland and there can be no talk of brotherhood in arms because the red army was ultimately an invading force that just happened not to be THAT bloodthirsty.

Yeah, and Mr Lech Kaczyński is not gonna be seen in a show of solidarity with Medveded and Putin. He is still pursuing Lech Wałesa, even tho Wałesa has come through some arduous court battles triumphant.

By all means, go and drink with some Russians and feel some sort of solidarity. Like a high or a buzz, the effect doesn't last.
