Note* Sorry everyone else who is on topic. I don't like to say these things because it's not necessary. I only say them when the honour and integrity of war time Poland is questioned:)
red bias,dont give me that BS,who was it with Nukes pointing at us for 40 odd years.a bit of a cheek really that isnt it,lets see,The Warsaw Pact ! ;)
Just saying you were favouring the soviet story of events. Don't get the Warsaw pact bit - please expand
having to explain first that "no,its not the ghetto Im talking about"
Now that is patronizing. I get the impression you THINK you know more than others.
comments like "you belived in 44") but Id say 1974 as a birth year is a bit old to be called a "little boy" :)
The first one I didn't say - what does that mean?
Yes I called you a child because you talk about things which to some people are sacred and any other mature person would skirt around and not seek to undermine, when it is really none of your concern in the first place.
Sorry,whats so particularly interesting about "having both grandfathers in the war"
This is not unique. It's interesting because it 's 100% relevant to our discussion - particularly when it come to providing accurate information when you occassionally struggle to do so.
were at one point in the german army
Maybe before 1920 when half of Poland was ruled and oppressed by Germany. After 1920 not likely - they were glad to break free. Also there were no known Polish collaborators in WWII
And like you pointed out,it was france with the largest standing army in the world
There you go again trying to take the heat of UK. It was the UK that organised the deal. Poland asked UK for help and UK kindly said yes because it was the right thing to do. France agreed to be part of it. France had the largest army and so was the biggest dissapointment. Of course you know that the first man to commit suicide of the Warsaw Stalin Tower was French - because it was a more honourable place to die than the Eiffel Tower.
No all britain did was take in your armed forces,re equip them,provide them with spitfires
You probably missed this while leafing through your documents. The UK did this in good faith to make up for their betrayal. The UK government was man enough to admit what they did. Unlike you.
And are you now trying to say the usa was in the war in 1939
The US gave UK tanks and guns to use after UK left all it's stuff in France after Dunkirk. UK Navey RULED. Britain then kicked Gerry *ss.
BTW,if you get your imformation from wikipedia
Wikipedia gives access to people who know what they are talking about - to chronicle world events etc and funilly enough tell the truth. Their comments, if untrue can be edited/corrected by others. It is updated and monitored. Remember - most history you read in books is propaganda led. Other traditional sources of info still maintain that Polish cavalry charged German tanks - and that William the Conquerer was French.
I dont think you need to worry about me taking anything away from the Polish underground movement,
Norman - you have access to lots of historical information. Some true - some false. It's your responsibility to find the truth and base your comments on that. But that is not always desirable becuase sometimes the truth is disturbing - at worst inconvenient.
no I didnt, The germans did,they invaded Poland;)k
fawlty towers,never ages ....:)
Lol
