News / Polish citizens given away to foreign law courts - is this normal? [29]

But I don't like, that Polish citizen is given away to a foreign court just because he is SUSPECTED

^^^^^double standards???? vvvvvvvv

why did UK refuse giving to Poland stalinist murderer Wolinska?

He was "given away to a foreign court" because the DNA evidence that HE DID NOT CONTEST said it was one-in-a-billion odds that it was him!

It seems to be that you, like his family, are choosing to ignore this extremely compeling fact!

As to the UK "refusing to give Poland stalanist murderer Wolinska". Maybe the British didn't want to get involved in "the Kaczyńscy 'duck' brothers" communist witch hunt!

History / Poland Betrayed in WW2 [243]

also one that doesn't rely on immigrants to keep from decline.

It just shows how little this idiot knows about current affairs in Poland. It was announced on both Polsat and TVP this week that Chinees workers as well as workers from Ukrania will be brought in because of the desperate shortage of workers here in Poland. It looks like too many "rats" have "jumped ship".

Of cource the biggest betrayal of all of Europe in ww2 was Americas unwillingness to get invoved in a Europian problem!

So what's your opinion?

I'm now confused. Al Gore had me convinced that we're all going to die a horrable death in the next decade. But Rafik has opened my eye's in a different direction. Maybe it is all a con to grab more money from our taxes. You know, when you think about it. Is it so hard to believe that the Earth getting warmer might have something to do with the sun? And not what fuel man is burning!

News / City of Warsaw has a new praeambulum [17]

but if it hadn't been for this combination, we (Poland) would be probably still governed by some pseudo-socialist post-communist regime

I'm very sorry, but I was under the impression that Solidarność defeated communism!

I don't see any link to religion!

News / Polish soldiers and the legacy of Depleted Uranium. [30]

my mother, sister and girl were (are!) terrified

Crow please tell us more about the contamination from depleted uranium in your country. I am reserching about it and I will post some of my findings soon, but I would like to know of your personal experiences from this war.

News / Polish soldiers and the legacy of Depleted Uranium. [30]

It would appear that the Pentagon has known about the dangers of this stuff since 1943. Check this web sit... newswithviews.com/Howenstine/james29.htm

And here's a quote from it....

Since 1943 the military has been aware of the extreme toxicity of uranium as a gas. A Oct 30, 1943 memo from Manhattan Project physicist James B. Conant to Brig. General L.B. Abrams stated that as a gas warfare instrument the radioactive material would be ground into microscopic particles forming dust and smoke and could be distributed by ground fired projectiles, land vehicles or aerial bombs. In this form it would be inhaled by personnel. They estimated that one millionth of a gram would be fatal. There are no known methods of treatment for such casualties.

Atropine and pralidoxime.I am not sure if it was in pills or injected.

I'm also not sure. Probably tablet???

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

I ask you, what is so British about that?

Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way home, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV. And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of all things foreign! Only in Britain can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance. Only in Britain do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front. Only in Britain do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke. Only in Britain do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters. Only in Britain do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage. Only in Britain do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place. Only in Britain are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink. NOT TO MENTION.. 3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue. 142 Brits were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new shirts. 58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers. 31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in. 19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas decorations were chocolate. British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after Xmas cracker-pulling accidents. 18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth. A massive 543 Brits were admitted to A & E in the last two years after trying to open bottles of beer with their teeth. 5 Brits were injured last year in accidents involving out-of-control Scalextric cars. and finally... In 2000 eight Brits were admitted to hospital with fractured skulls incurred whilst throwing up into the toilet.

Yes! I'm proud to be British!

Golf war syndrome

As johnp pointed out to me on a different thread, Gulf War Syndrom was because of the sh it they were injecting into themselves against chemical attack. But I think Depleted Uranium is something far more serious. The contamination will last for 4.5 billion years. That's as long as our planet is old!

I believe, of at least 50000 years

The figures I've been reading are closer to 4.5 billion years, and that's from more than one source. Yes it is a "low level" radiation, but still deadly!

So, i would just add- It`s not necessary for Polish soldiers to go that far- on Middle East to risk being exposed to depleted uranium. NATO

Crow is right.

What do they prefer ?

Central!

living costs compared to wages were high

Simply not true.

I earn a little over the Polish minimum wage and that's more than enough to pay all of mine and my wife's living costs. I'll grant there isn't too much left over but there is a little. We couldn't survive in the uk on just one wage.

News / Polish soldiers and the legacy of Depleted Uranium. [30]

Polands soldiers who are now serving in the Middle East are being exposed to depleted uranium contamination. This is a highly dangerous situation that these people are being exposed to. Some of the known effects are....

Birth defects from the children of Gulf war vets which would break a heart of stone: babies with terribly foreshortened limbs, with their intestines outside their bodies, with huge bulging tumors where their eyes should be, or with a single eye-like Cyclops, or without eyes, or without limbs, and even without heads. Significantly, some of the defects are almost unknown outside textbooks showing the babies born near A-bomb test sites in the Pacific.

Also over 200,000 US troops who have returned from the 1991 war are now invalided out with ailments officially attributed to service in Iraq-that's 1 in 3. In contrast, the British government's failure to fully assess the health of returning troops, or to monitor their health, means no one even knows how many have died or become gravely ill since their return.

So I ask. Is it right that Poland's soldiers should continue to be exposed to this radiaton?
