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

No, "we" should have stuck to bombing military targets,not pure revenge attacks on women and children.Simple truth is, the large bomber raids mounted in late 44 and early 45 did f' all for the strategic situation.

Rubbish.....The cities were military targets....What with the road junctions, Rail yards, warehouse etc etc.....Its just that unfortunately the women and kids lived near by!.....I think you've given in to modern day morality!

Im sorry,I didnt realise you had served in the US army in the last war........

Don't know what you mean by that mate?

Yes, you keep telling yourself,then look at the actual written record of the RAF and USAAF targeting criteria,namely, did it burn well,and would it cause terror to a large civilian population.
I think the crux of your arguent seems to be ," The nazis did it,so why cant "we"?", which,no offense,seems a little flawed,if not morraly bankrupt.

I don't keep on telling myself anything mate........So who was it that flattened Germany?....The answer is the RAF.....I think that most of us brits and alot of envious Poles and other people are secretly proud of that fact.....and why shouldn't we be?

Work / "Ethnicity" form - Polish Europeans? [77]

- Were there any 'Germany' and 'Germans' 1600 years ago? If yes, then where? In Nazi German delusions?

Yeah ok Puzzler i take your point......There was no such thing as Germany until around 1879....So i should have said we decend from Germanic tribes....i.e from the tribes who lived in what is now Germany and Denmark.

More Scandinavia than Germany, right?
:)

I think the Angles were from what is now Denmark and northern Holland.....and the Saxons came from north eastern Germany......and as for the Scandinavians i don't think the Vikings penatrated much inland....they just settled along the coast.....but i may be wrong on that!

UK, Ireland / We welcome Polish people to Britain! [224]

Immigration has enriched and improved Britain for centuries - the UK would still be in the stone age if people didnt come and go so much.

Yeah right ok.. you idiot!!....When comparing the achievements of Brits to any other Country......I think you will find us Brits will run rings around anyone!....They say Britain invented the modern world....What with the Industrial Revolution...Worldwide web...Computers...TV...Radar...DNA....Telephones...Jet Engines etc....Without us Brits i think all of you unachieved people would still be living in the Stone Age don't you think?

They all have Scottish Ancestry do they?.....I take it that comment was just off the top of you head right?....and how does a Country of 5 million people pay for a country of 55 million?

UK, Ireland / We welcome Polish people to Britain! [224]

So folks,welcome to britain,you thought you had it bad in Poland :)

No i'm sorry mate you will have to do better than that....First of all Mongomery and Alexander were born and lived in England (most so called great Scotsmen are infact Englishmen born with a Scottish name)....Secondly you have listed a load of medevil battles that mean nothing to anyone!!...I think you nead to know more about the Campaines!!.....Which you came of worse!.......You listed Derby?.....Well what was the outcome of that?.......You lot being Hammered at Colloden!!....and you need to educate yourself about the English Civil War!....What was the outcome of the Scottish Army??....Not a happy one! I havn't heard much about York and Manchester.....So i don't think it could have been that important, and by the way i've read alot about this.... in Normany Montgomery was going to send your famous ''51st Highland Division'' back home.... because of poor fighting qualities!.....So there you go!.......Oh and by the way Clever Dick....You were talking about the Internet!!.....Where i was talking about the World Wide Web.

History / Are Germans going to pay for WW2? [180]

It is important to show what Germans have done, how much they have paid for Poles and how much for "others"

The picture you have given Luzasz are dead Germans from the Dresden Raid......Atleast us Brits managed to get something right!!....(Only joking).

Its good to read your posts again by-the-way.
