"I have issued the command and I'll have anybody who utters but one word of criticism executed by firing squad-that our war aim does not consist in reaching certain lines, but in the physical destruction of the enemy. Accordingly, I have placed my death-head formations in readiness—for the present only in the East— with orders to send to death mercilessly and without compassion, men, women, and children of Polish derivation and language. Only thus shall we gain the living space that we need."

check it.

'Warsaw Rising: Forgotten Soldiers of WWII'

"In the end, the Nazis slaughtered the Polish resistance and demolished Warsaw. More than 200,000 people died, half a million were driven out of the city and more than three quarters of the underground army perished."

Can't Poles talk about their history on PF ? Why when we talk about Warsaw somebody is talking about Jews or living in the past and that Poles should move forward.

It is Polish history section and it is our history.

For Polish people Warsaw up-rising wasn't defeat. It is was sign that we haven't agreed to die without fight. It was moral victory. Fight and not let to be killed in concentration camp. In 1944 there was chance for succes. Russians stoped their armies and gave Germans opportunity to smash Warsaw so we had only moral victory.

Finaly some people don't understand it and don't try to do it.

History / Pre WWII life in small town Poland [19]

My grandfather was living in small vilage in east Poland and he finished 8 classes of school. ;) There was cinema in small town near his vilage in Suwalki.

History / Pre WWII life in small town Poland [19]

Now it is 70 000 people town. IMO it was much smaller before the war. It was only "powiatowe" town ;)

Cities looked like that

Lwow 1939 - east of the country



Warszawa



In Suwalki there were Cinema Army Churches Schools ... ;-) nothing special. East Poland...

One of my grandfatheres was from pre war Warsaw :), the another was form vilage in east Poland. He finished his school in his vilage. I haven't asked him if there was electicy in his vilage. In biger towns situation was much better.

Middle town is shown in Agnieszka Holland movie Europe Europe, at the begining we can see how towns in western Poland looked like.

News / Do Polish people feel there is a danger of communism growing stong again? [69]


before the war communists were on the margin in Poland. Later system was imposed by Russians and our commie margin ... it was like somebody would give power (by brutal force) for BMP in UK and Russian/German soldiers for help to deal with blacks and rule UK ... of course if people form BMP would like to be more independent there would be military intervention ... as it was in Czechoslovakia or when Hungarians made rebelion.

Lets hope that nobody is going to invade Poland to impose this system by force.

First time I read about them.


You have very hard job. :)

News / How to form political party with Pan Slavic orrientation in Poland? [34]


IMO there is noticable cooperation between Czechs, Poles, Ukrainans and Slovaks. We can do it without creating new political party. It is aliance but in some cases we simple cooperate. It is progress. I'd not call it slavic unity, we have some common interests.

Work / Polish Labor Is Scarce as Workers Go West [60]

Poles are coming back home because pound is crap ! We don't need your help puzzi. We welcome british investors in Poland.

Work / Polish Labor Is Scarce as Workers Go West [60]

Why a hell you want to start talking about polonophobia or what ever. We need Poles home they are comming back. What is more we need more and more other imigrants. Brits, French Ukrainians. Some of them make good money here some work on construction.

Polish invasion on UK is history! Still a lot of people will stay there but it isn't issue any more.

Work / Polish Labor Is Scarce as Workers Go West [60]

Ukrainians on construction. Brits don't work there. Your posts as guest are charming.

Work / Polish Labor Is Scarce as Workers Go West [60]

This forum has its shape. And moaning about posters is not going to change it. We need more Ukrainians than we have now. We will see maybe it will change in future. When Poles form UK will fight with Ukrainians for low paid jobs. When Crisise will appear in Poland. Spain has problems with economy, UK has problems with economy the same Estonia ...

We will see. What is sure Brtis moaning about Poles are good for our economy.

News / Thoughts on present day Lech Walesa [27]

Lech have been many times holded in communist prisons and there are hundrets of documents about him false or true nobody knows. Mostly emigrants who don't know reality in communist state make stupid accusations (and politicans elected by them).

Lech is ok.
