Poland-Russia: never-ending story? [1341]
First, we are not asking from anyone to deal with us.
Second, I am not trying to dispose of Russian guilt towards Poland. Yes, in the general context of history Russia has commited crimes and should apologize for them. I can understand your saying that most of the times Russia has been on the offensive, because it is true, only from your perspective: Russia has taken part in most of the partitionings of Poland. I must admit Russia has gone off the far end with Poles, that shouldn't have happened. But after what? Who was aggressive enough to start up a fight first? Take a guess. Or was it that poor, peacefull Poles aimlessly wandering in the woods in 1600s, got lost in the process, all of a sudden found themselves near the walls of old Moscow, asked the Russians for directions back to Poland, but the stupid Russians refused to cooperate, so ended up being slaughtered and their homes robbed and burned down? Huh? Or is it not mentioned in your history books? We know you people. We know your "Wojska Polska" very well. Was it Pan Kazimir in the lead? Poles had slaughtered enough of us to designate them as occupants and enemies that should be treated as such ever since. Too bad, we ignorant, uncivilized peasants/barbarians didn't understand your noble ideas of building an expanded Poland from sea to sea from north to south and extending to the far reaches of Siberia in the east, practically the whole of Russia. Of course, the tsar has been to be replaced with his Polish counterpart, the Pan or whatever. Now we would be so gullible as not to call this an attempt to occupy Russia, provided you haven't lost the battle and were driven off? Or such Polish ambitious plans are not in your books? You just can't forgive yourselves that failure, for it all was so feasible, and nowadays Russia, as we know it, would have been Poland as we will not know it, because it will never going to happen, Matthias, not even with the U.S. on your side, not even in your wildest dreams. All what is left for Poland to do, is to take revenge through helping others to render Russia weak and helpless. Well, if that has become the purpose of your existence, then good luck with that. You may succeed to some extent but will ultimately fail. Take your sweet revenge while you can, because, contrary to your belief, Russia, be it not in near future, WILL BE A SUPERPOWER whether you or your masters like it or not. Not such impediments that we've overcome. Seen worse days. So thanks for your luck.
Third, if you look at Russian history more closely, you will find out that most of the time Russians were defending their own homeland from invasions posed by (not in chronological order) the Germans (the German tribes or whatever they were called), the Polish intervention, the Tatars and Mongols, the Swedes, the Turks, the British incursion, the French, the Germans again, the Japanese, and the Chinese. Did I leave someone out? And now the Americans are drooling over us. Ain't gonna happen.
Fourth, I think I can sleep well now and have sweet dreams, for I am sure to know that NATO/U.S. is trustworthy and will never attack first like it didn't threaten througout the Cold War period to attack us, like it didn't attack first Korea, Vietnam, Iraq in the First Gulf War, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq for the alleged weapons of mass destruction, and now possibly Iran? How could I think that NATO/US could not be trusted? Whatever is wrong with me? Thank you, that was insightful. Now I know. NATO=Defense!
Last, I do not think that the U.S. will install the missiles and just smile at them. They are trying their best for these missiles to serve their intented purpose, and this is only the first step to their defense shield. They will install other components in other places if haven't already done so. It is obvious, they are preparing for a possible war with Russia. Nuclear deterrance, ever heard of it? Once they are certain that their shield is capable of shooting down all and that nothing escapes, they'll strike. Maybe not now, maybe after 20, 50, 100 years, but this will happen if we don't wake up and do something about it.
