So, me quoting a Polish History Doctor, working at one of the most prestigious univeristies in Europe started all this off? A doctor of history with 50 years of experience - and you dismiss it and assume you know better?
My Polish History lecturer was not a commie, she is a student of History.
Well, it seems to me that now you`re trying to weasel out of the whole situation by bullshitting the people on this board.
So this lecturer of your is suddenly a "Polish History Doctor, with a 50 year experience" - it`s quite a progress that she had made during the last 20 minutes.
But seriously: noone who has a degree in history, or as a matter of fact has read ONE single book concerning Polish history would write such bullshit as you did. And in addition, I really don`t need some foraign arsecholes, who are living here since how long? A couple of weeks? - Lecturing me about the history of my country, pretending to know something they obviously have no idea about.
We have also many so called "Sunday students" in this country who somehow got lost at the university and who know what "higher education" means only from the stories told by their friends.
nearly all self rule in Poland over the last millenia has been messed up by its own people
This quote you`ve used by the way had been used many, many times by the Nazis btw. and this whole idea had been created just after WWI, at the begining of the XIX century when Germany had to give up some of its teritory - this was the main propaganda argument for the Germans to oppose the changes of their eastern borders.
I also somehow don`t get the idea why someone who obviously dosnt know what a "millenium" is and mixes it with the word "century" - bucause I`m 100% this is what you`ve ment when saying that the "Polish language hasnt existed before the second millenium BC" - unlike Latin (which also didn`t existed before the second millenium BC)
So - It looks as if you`d have much to learn.
And on a further point in which you're wrong is that this debate/thread was started by patriot/non-patriot saying that Germany was taking over poland again! I used the quote in the context that an overall governing body that sets laws over all member EU states is a good thing - for all member states, not just for Poland.
He`s not right now - you`re here. When he`s going to show up, we`re also going to have a little chat :)
