Which border???

Of course, you did that in the countries that you had already conquered.
Or are you saying that among those 3 million ethnic Poles that you slaughtered
there weren't any women or children

Well...maybe I could acknowledge more the achievements of the polish army when you could acknowledge that the german army did actually sometimes fight against enemy military during breaks slaughtering civilians.

Like it matters what the French had. :)

Well...they will always serve as a prime example that a country needs more than a "grande army" with good equipment to be an effective force.

The french had all that but look what happened...

Tell me why you totally circumnavigated Switzerland.

They had the Nazi gold in their banks? I'm only guessing here...

No matter how many time-travel type fiction novels might disagree, the Nazis never really had any hope of winning the war at all.

If they had kept the Russians out of it and the whole affair in Europe, then yes...

But the Nazis being the Nazis there was no stopping at all.

Sorry you can't bear abit reality check Torqi!
Did it hit a nerve here?
Is it really so hard for you to admit that the Germans have the stronger forces? I mean we slugged the French three times (1870, 1914, 1940) and we are friends now...:)

PS: You don't plow your way through Europe killing women and children, you know? It's abit counterproductive not concentrating your forces on the enemy armies...if the Germans had only that they won't had come much farther than their borders!

If they had only been willing to put up a fight, they wouldn't have been overrun so
easily. Remember that the front Czechs would have had to defend was quite short,
with strong fortifications and their army was very well equipped.

Well...the Belgians had Eben Emael - the strongest fort of the world, thought insurmountable - the French had a bigger and more modern army with more tanks than the Germans...did not help them one bit!

Bollox.

Well...I don't know what history books you read but that's what happened! :)

If they hadn't invaded we would have owned you like bit*ches. Simple as that.

Wishful thinking, that's all!
And overestimating ones capabilities seems really to be a polish trait...

That's right: if Germany could have taken on Poland herself, and kept the whole country, why get Russia to help, and only keep half of it? Unless they couldn't, of course. In which case we fully understand your rationale in ganging up on a single country and then bragging about your superior might after having jointly slaughtered millions (of innocents).

Germany didn't ask the Russians for help as there was none needed. It was a strategical move on their part and the start of the dance which led later to the war at the eastern front..

If it makes you feel better, nobody could have withstood the german army in 1940. They plowed through Europe like nothing before, the only thing what saved the Brits was the channel after they run with their tail between their legs.

Yes: Now I get to throw out the "We'll never know for sure what would've happened had Germany tried to take on Poland alone..." line, smugly, every time somebody brings that up. =D

So you really think without the Russians Poland would have won against the Germans???

Considering the circumstances and the gap in technology, Polish army did outstandingly
well.

Where? When?

Done in four weeks is for no army an "outstandingly well" achievement I would think...

Considering the circumstances and the gap in technology,

Well...during the build up to this war most Poles seemed to think they could take on Germany any time and be "in one week in Berlin".

A quote the Germans remember very well..

News / New York Post : "Polish" Death Camps and more [278]

Yehudi? What exactly makes the ME your homeland?

You left it 2000 years back. Lots of tribes wandered during these times...should they all now too demand their old haunts back?
Ever heard of the european "Völkerwanderung"?
Whole Europe on the move away from the invading huns?
What's the difference between them any the Jews?

Dershowitz is such an unbearable, self righteous, biased arsehole...I once watched him at the Doha debate...gah!

Now Poland is a collaborator nation and the poor Palis played a big part in the holocaust...yeah...sure... Dershi got it in once again...

It's even more amusing trying to make the Poland campaign somehow to something else than a devastating, humiliating defeat for the "in one week in Berlin" types of "proud" Poles. :):):)

The Germans ate you for breakfast in '39 and no lone battle which took 3 days instead of 3 hours changes that...

What's the fuss about?

I read about this but couldn't detect anything special (besides Germans dropping leaflets to give the Poles a chance to surrender).

Germans attack - Poles defend a fort - Poles get overrun - Poles kill themselves - Germans march on - Poland done 3 weeks later

So what?

But hey...maybe you should put it in your holy lists of battles against Germans...like...um....say ...Grunwald...:)

PS: Sabatons lyrics are quite funny when you think about it:
"So come, bring on all that you've got/Come hell, come high water, Never stop/Unless you are 40 to 1/Your lives will soon be undone"

If I were a Pole I would rather not try it again...
The last times Poles bragged about a war with Germany they did not look so good later!

Same as today's Nazis. Who apparently are from Mars, cuz no-one ever speaks about their origins. Just Nazis. Mysterious Nazis. Landed on our Earth and took over whole Europe... then disappeared. Gone. Nobody heard about them again.

Not fair!
Can't they even leave us Germans our Nazis! *pouts*

News / FEINSTEIN NEW us AMBASSADOR TO POLAND [47]

Precisely. Look, if a Polish American had the necessary drive and accompanying skillset, they'd be in the picture too.

Nope, sorry to burst your bubble!

But for example as Timken was nominated by the Bushies to become ambassador to Berlin the german TV run a very interesting doku how ambassadors come to be appointed by Washington in the first place...

An interesting picture emerged...the more someone spends money to support the voting campaign of the winner/now US president the more he can now demand back.

These ambassadors have rarely any diplomatic background at all or are studied diplomats, foreign specialists or whatever, rarely speak any lingua beside english, often just very rich entrepreneurs (if you are lucky they bring with them some business contacts and connections) who are bored and want to try something new.

Why not a prestigious but harmless post?

Most US-Ambassadors are of that kind...exceptions confirm the rule!

PS: If a Pole would had spend millions for Obama and now would show interest he would had had a good chance to get the ambassador post in Warsaw.

(Nothing to do with skillset at all...)

News / FEINSTEIN NEW us AMBASSADOR TO POLAND [47]

In the US such prestigious but quite harmless posts are often given as a reward for support and money during the voting campaign.

If you are lucky then the new ambassador speaks the lingua...most often they don't!

News / Poland among the greatest enemies of Russia [112]

Can you imagine the security they would have to invest in? What if some crazy Arab terrorist crashed his plane into this place? :)

Well...it's not oil...they can't kill the sun or stop her from shining.
Solar panels can be replaced easily. And we will build up an energy saving for such cases in the mean time.
But that's another good reason to make the natives profit from that too.
The sympathy for would-be-terrorists would not be very great.
There are also countries who are friendly and not hostile from the outlet. We are talking with those.
And at last there will be surely military and intelligence cooperation on all sides of this project...

But it won't be worse than what we have now with our dependance on oil and gas!

It would be great if Canada and Poland would join the Desertec project!

News / Poland among the greatest enemies of Russia [112]

What exactly are the Africans getting in return? I've heard mixed reports about this.

Jobs and clear drinkwater!

Well, it would be beneficial for both parties thats for sure. For the whole world, in the end.
Replacing old coal plants with fresh new solar/wind generators would be a beautiful thing.

I'm really glad the german big industry decided to take the lead at last (with the government behind them).
They sat on the fence for much to long....now it should only be a question of time!

Typical of you Gerries, trying to steal sunshine from poor Africans. lol

Well...if all goes according to plan they will get lots of clean drinkwater in exchange...this technology works that way!

Europe get's the energy and Africa the water...a win/win situation as I said!
