UK, Ireland / What's So Great About The UK? [416]

I understand the complaints of the Britons even though I myself am Polish. I know its not racism it just seems to you that British culture might disappear. However living in America I can honestly that the children of these Immigrants will intergrate if not the immigrants themselves. Be patient. However these arguments concerning immigrants taking jobs is complete B.S. If your the right candidate for the job you have nothing to worry about. Also the reasons that your government does not stop immigration because their is a shortage of labor in some industries, your population rates are falling in addition to the aging population. Its comes down to living with different cultures or face and economic decline. I gaurantee you the economic situation would be much more dire then your complaints about poles stealing your jobs(jobs britons are unwilling to do or don't have the skills for)

to my polish compatriots imagine leaving your house in krakow warsawa nowy targ poznan or wherever you might live and everybody around you is speaking arabic(arabic just an example so no offence however I do have problem with the extremists but that's a different topic) would you not be pissed. this is fear that your culture is disappearing. its might seem racist but it is logical. its normal. britons you have nothing to fear each culture has its positives and negatives and those positives will live forever. u need to take an objective look at both sides and both sides are right. poles are your friends not your enemy. in the end we are all europeans. the world is not black and white

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

I personally don't have a problem with Jews except the fact that any criticism against Israel is automatically branded as anti-semitism and racist. I definitely have a problem with Israeli foreign policy. Their similar to the palatines and both sides are almost equally responsible. But to be honest the US UK and Russia are responsible for their decisions at the Yalta conference. Almost forgot Germany witch started this whole mess.

I am so confused with any neo nazis in Poland. Don't their parents or others say anything. Its one thing to not like Jews but why have Hitler as your hero. Don't they know Hitler didn't like Poles either. Don't they know Hitler killed Poles. **** its bad enough your a extreme racist at least have the deceny to worship a racist that didn't murder poles(this is somewhat satire)

Darius Im with you on that law. Also quick reply to previous posts. The Israeli don't target inncocent people purposefully they are just caught in the way because arabs use them as human shields and on the otherhand the arabs specifically target civilians. However if Israel withdrew to their original borders the arabs would not have any excuse to attack them. Not saying they would stop but their would be no logic to it except revenge and the whole world would see the arabs are unreasonable. Then I think more countries would support Israel. However if the arabs did stop the attacks then their would be peace. its a win win for Israel. So by them not willing to withdrawel they are just as guilty as the palatines. Like to add if you would withdrawel and they still attacked I would personally join the Israeli army. If allowed.

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

Germans should not be compensated for several reasons. First Germany started the war. Second it wasn't Polands idea to shift the borders. The German govrrnment should compensate them. To a lesser extent the countries involved in the Yalta conference. Poland is the least responsible of any country. Also surprised that this is an issue. Poland was destroyed and you didn't see any lawsuits brought against Germany. Well To be fair their was this one guy who spent time in a concentration camp but that was after Germans wanted compensation.

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

isthatu I know the title of the thread idiot the issues are intrrelated. By them claiming compensation that is a form of them trying to potray themselves as victims. If you don't see that they are related you need to work on your reasoning

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

they are related I don't know how to make myself clearer. it boils down to portraying themselves as victims. but so your satisfied the musuem is k if its takes the whole war into account. not k if it focuses only on the expulsion of germans which majority were all too happy to follow hitler. also like to point out it wasn't polands idea to shift borders. you can blame the powers at the yalta conference. also germany for starting the mess. polish communists were the least responsible. wow never thought ill be defending polish communists but it is true

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

I think we agree, however just to make sure the musuem should not just include expulsions of all the people of europe but also the events that led to these expulsions. if so then we agree

even though the israeli governement withdrew they did not withdrawal to the original borders. so the terrorists keep using that as an excuse and for the west its hard to argue with that. so if israel did withdrawal then all in the west would have no choice to agree with israel if the attacks continue because they would be convinced that the arabs will never agree to peace.

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

to those who think stalin was a great leader of russia. what great leader needs to kill his own people. a leader is respected not feared. **** stalin and hitler and **** those who defend them. hitler lost for a reason and USSR collapsed for a reason. the reason is they were full of sh*t.

the situation is complicated all I advocate is return to orginal borders created after ww2 what ever they are I would have to see the orginal ww2 document. not only in lebanon or gaza but everywhere you occupy since the arab israeli war. if you do that then you will have my complete support. even will serve in your army once you do that to keep the peace.

lets do it this way: please state what made Stalin a great leader. love to hear it. don't state he's a great leader without telling us what made him one.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.
