History / Should Germany claim to be the victims in Poland? [510]

Gun Ho Hit and Miss attitude. Bubba what do you think America misses on purpose and hits there allies. Mistakes happen. Technology doesn't always work how its supposed to. Those are unfortunate accidents. Mistakes happen at hospitals does that mean they have this careless attitude. No its just everything doesn't happen the way we want it to. Your anti american that's fine but be realistc at least.

History / Should Germany claim to be the victims in Poland? [510]

just like to state that UNFORTUNETLY germany would defeat any country if it was one on one during ww2. Also if Hitler had not attcked Russia he would not have to fight on two fronts. That was his mistake. and last thing I want to add is Russia was strong not because of its strong military but only because of its sheer numbers. Poland after winning polish soviet war after WW1 fell back technologically by the beginning of WW2.

US was most responsible if not the only one responsible for the defeat of Japan. But I think UK contributed more then the US when it came to germany. Its a hard topic looking for more input. Bratwurst RUSSIA definatly first. U say US second I say UK anybody else.

Your right Russia had the winter and endless human waves. Not sure if fighting spirit was so significant. I know Russians would send their soldiers in waves at Germans without any weapons and if they refused they would kill their own soldiers. So yes they did have that fighting spirit but that was more because they had no choice. fighting spirit hands down was Poland though militarly weak and easily defeated.

its hard to say which country was responsible for the defeat of the germans, no country on its own could do it. but here is my ranking: Russia UK, US, Poland, France, Canada, don't care about the rest. Poland maybe above US because of poles breaking of the code , uprising, help in battle of Britain and other major battles. Would like to know others input

I agree if you want freedom you should pay the necessary costs. countrary to what you think freedom isn't free.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

well im not so selfish. I believe in helping whenever and wherever you can. not comparing the situation to genocide but would you not support the stop of genocide even if its not in your nations interest.

and that's not even mentioning its in everybody's interest for peace in the middle east. and not even mentioning the yalta conference powers are responsible. so they should fix what they broke.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

bubbawoo im not gonna even respond to your comment. you are unable to comprehend the point im trying to get across, its kind of sad.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

laughing out loud Good Point. Explains why I feel so misunderstood.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

isthatu I noticed, and might I add your very good at it. I hope Im not shooting my self in the foot when I say Keep doing what you do.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

isthatu nicely said. yeah your right we don't agree on much but when in comes to this issues im glad we agree.

for the person who commented that return to original borders won't stop terrorism. I didn't say it will (it might but probably not). I advocate that because I think it is the right thing to do palastines deserve their own country plus it will improve israels international image. if israels image is improved then other countries will do more to protect israel from terrorism.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

isthatu I agree with you what do you suggest getting rid of israel. it was a mistake of the parties at yalta. its to late israel is not going anywhere, we must except that and learn to go from here. just as the palastines arent going anywhere and we must accept that.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

patryjca I totally agree with what your saying. im even surprised I had to argue with some people about something so simple to understand. Dariuz good point. What's this world coming to when I have to defend a person like JP. you should question, people's motives and actions but you also need to know when to trust and identify those who want to help the world. lets not be paranoid. JP was one of the few good leaders we ever had..

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

its not ethnic cleansing lol their has been mass immigration to israel from poland russia usa and many other countries.. not defending israeli policy but lets not make up sh*t. also for you who said the ethnic cleansing comment. tell me what you would do if rockets and sucide bombers target your country. I see it as self defence. my problem is that you wouldn't need to defend yourself if you went back to your original borders.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

what's he to say use condoms when having sex before your married. come on be realistic. he's the pope. he can't preach something like that his alternative is that he preaches celebicy which if followed will stop spread of AIDs. the people who are responsible are the people not having safe sex or having sex. plus maybe the reason he was so revered was because his teachings though unrealistic were pure.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

k I agree so how is JP responsible. they could have wore a condom it would have been k or they could have listened to JP and remained celibate and it would have been k. pope didn't say don't use condom and fu*k around. he said don't use condon and don't have sex. I know what your saying because he wasn't realistic. but that doesn't make him responsible. Example I preach to the public not to steal but obviously that's unrealistic. people steal that's natural. am I responsible because I preach not to steal when im not not being realistics.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

maybe I didn't say it the best. everybody remains celibate then they get married. how do those people have AIDS if they remained celibate. so they can't pass it to their mates. lets pretend they do have aids however like you want to think then only it would be spread to their spouse. however if you aren't celibate and have aids chances are you are going to have more than one partner. so instead you infect 4 people and those 4 infect 4. get my drift. JP might have not been realistic but if people listened to his teachings then it would work to stop the spread of aids. So because people didn't listen he should not be blamed for that.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

don't say im a fool without explaining why. so I can see how SMART you are.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

idiot you can catch aids yes when married however your one partner gets AIDS. unlike when you sleep all over more then one person catches aids. so when married you pass it to 1 when sleeping around you can spread to 20. I don't understand how this is a difficult topic. the issue isn't if JP was being realistic. don't change the subject. issue is if he's reponsible for the spread. I miss spoke about that statement you said I am confusing you

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

I have sex and im not married. but you can't blame JP for spread of aids. if people would stop having sex and wait till marriage it would stop spread of aids. so if I get aids im not going to blame the pope. if I didn't have sex I would have AIDS. im responsible

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

if they listened to him would it have not worked to reduce the spread of AIDs?

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

bubbawoo tell us how indirectly he was responsible.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

that intention comment wasn't the best. it was said because JP was being compared to hitler and stalin and I was saying hitler and stalins aim was to kill and the popes wasn't(even though he didnt but if you think he did) isthatu how did the pope contribute to aids in africa.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

what's ridiculous about it? all he said abstinance would stop spread of aids. reread the previous posts your misunderstanding something.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

bubbawoo, lesser is right how can AIDs spread through abstinence and don't mention drugs because majority of AiDS cases in Africa are spread sexually. what's so ridiculous about that I dare you to come up with a good excuse.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

isthatu just because those people are still poor doesn't mean she didn't help them. are you serious with yourself. she fed them and helped them spiritualy. isthatu what nationality are you if you don't mind. maybe it will explain some things. also your comment about JP that's like saying all future leaders of russia and germany are responsible for stalin and hitler great logic

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

I agree with lesser. like to add first I don't believe she felt that way like to know where you heard that. lets pretend your right which your not. I don't care about her beliefs I care about her actions. actions speak louder then words. if a satanists rescues a million people I don't care that he worships satan he just saved a million people. beliefs don't matter actions do.

correction don't defend someone because he's your nationality AND/OR use to be a leader of your country.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

isthatu you I did say that about violence that its sometimes necessary. that's because hitler was slaughtering people and since non violence takes longer we didn't have the time to wait around and talk. however china is not salughtering people of tibet and so their is time to try non violence. like I said depends on mentality of the enemy. those who try non violence and are successful are great leaders. but that is not saying non violence always works. to compare presidents of america to hitler and stalin is insane. not saying presidents of america didn't **** up but they are no hitler or stalin. as for the atom bomb it probably should not have been used but as a recall japan was a aggressor. being an agressor like hitler and stalin is different then doing something out of defence.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

lesser wrote

It is hardly possible that somebody is so religious that reject condoms but in the same time he don't accept pre-marriage sexual abstinence.

GREAT POINT

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

that's a good point about John Paul however it wasn't his intention to spread aids. if people respected all his teachings such as celebicy not only pick and choose his teachings aids wouldn't spread. not saying I agree with his teachings but unlike stalin he didnt kill and slaughter those who wouldn't follow him. he leaves the option to the people. also like to add he's partly responsible for the fall of communism without violence I think that's an accomplishment. as far as daili lama he's trying to accomplish freedom for tibet peacefully so its not going to be quick and easy it can take decades before the chinease mentality changes. here's how I see it violence can have quick results but they are temporary. however non violence can take longer but the results will last longer.

History / Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]

what's a great leader: Pope John Paul II was a great leader, Ghandi, Dalai Lama those our great leaders. People who can change the world through non violence and respect. like to say I do support war for self defence and to stop genocide but that's only because their are such few great leaders that we have no option but to resort to war
