Poland and Ukraine [240]
Secondly, if they can`t govern themselves, it means that Polish pany didn`t teach them that. The only thing Ukrainians were expected by Poles was to labour in the fields, not to participate in governments.
Where did you find this rubbish? In the UPA booklets "Why Poles are our enemy" or NKVD leaflet "kill pany"?
For what reason should they belong to Poland?
Because it was part of the Crown and border issue wasn't settlet between Ukraine and Poland but by the arbitrary decision of the one man, Stalin.
Look honestly at Polish achievements in Ukraine - what are they? Pure exploitation of peasants, that`s all. And don`t tell me about Lvov because it was a multicultural and multiethnic city - there were many minorities which contributed to its greatness. Poles did too but they weren`t alone.
What kind of psychobubble is that ?
I can see that you are deeply confused man pawian.
First of all what ukraine, then were and when, and last whats your point.
OK, even if you persist in taking Lvov as an example of Polish great work in the East, what else? Nothing. Look at Germans and what they did in their partition zone which is in Poland today - they built and developed infrastructure, railways, roads, facilities, cities, which stand till today and are used by Poles in 21 century.
I can see you are very deep thinker but surely you cannot expect simple mind like myself to understand would care to explain.
You compare Germans and 120years of their rule mainly in the XIX century and 20 years of polish rule in the eastern malopolska.
Hey, man, what are you talking about? Are you talking about war with Germany??? :):):)
Well, why not, Poland could surrender after 1 hour and then Germany could build and develop infrastructure in Poland.)0)
What war all Im saying is that Germans want their land back and because as you put it nicely they bulit .......and so on, )Im sure they also printed books you were reading about useless and lazy Poles.
But why do you limit your demands to Ukraine only? Why not take all lands which once were under Polish Lithuanian rule? Especially those in today`s Russia, and the Baltics and Belarus. And keep the ex-German lands too? Don`t you think it would be great to have Great Poland?
Because we are talking about prewar borders and because contrary to some I recognise existance of the ukrainian nation and polish rights do not extand to all the terrytory of the present ukrainian state.
And I provided such a map because there aren`t any other available. Luckily ... :):):) it means most Poles are fairly reasonable and they realise that Ukraine seperates us from Russia which has always been an imperial state with a tendency to spread its borders and influence. Russian average people are great, I love them, but Russian elites have never stopped their desire to revive the old empire, once tsarist, later Soviet. Today it is oligarchic crippled empire but the Russian dream of greatness is still lively.
Blah ablah .............
Do I propose to destroy Ukraine?NO!
That is why Ukraine must remain independent, it is a Polish strategic interest. Poles should do everything to help Ukrainians. Anybody who doesn`t understand it is a political baby. :):):):)
Better to be political baby then old fool.
It's all about interest, so Poles should look after their interest and Ukrainian after theirs and if they want polish assistens they should courting us.
Right now, there is some who want to be part of Russia, some who don't care and some who want independent country - let them sort it out by themselfs!
PS. Ironside, last question. You are not Polish, are you? :):):)
Are you ? After your last post I have my doubts !
