History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

BB, even if you don't like or agree, you are going to have to realize Israel is there to stay

I don't care!
It's Israel which should ask itself those questions if they prefer to live in a fortress, walled in, as isolated pariahs hated by their neighbours or if they want peace and normal relationships.

For peace they just have to give something...but right now it seems they prefer to put their future with their army and their nukes.

It's their decision Plastic, not mine nor anybody elses.

PS: I wonder what they will do if the Palis declare their independence (should be quite soon i've heard)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_Palestine

...
In November 2009, Palestinian officials were reported to be preparing the ground for asking for recognition of a Palestinian State from the Security Council. The state was envisioned to be based on the 1967 Green Line as an international border with Israel and East Jerusalem as its capital. The plan was reported to have support from Arab states, Russia and the UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon. [23]

haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1111372.html

...
Fayyad said last week that the Palestinian Authority intends to establish a de-facto state by 2011, despite failing peace talks.

We have decided to be proactive, to expedite the end of the occupation by working very hard to build positive facts on the ground, consistent with having our state emerge as a fact that cannot be ignored," Fayyad told the Times of London. "This is our agenda, and we want to pursue it doggedly."

According to Fayyad, the idea would be to "end the occupation, despite the occupation."

It seems at least one side is sick of all that empty talk of peace as new settlements are build every day...

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

I trust in them and we should listen and act on the information they provide.

Who are you? Their poodle???

Maybe Iran will give up it's folly and work toward being a force of peace in the region? They need to realize it's a no win situation. They best cooperate and work toward being an oaisis of peace in the region.

It's all about the Pali-problem. As long that isn't cleared there will be no acceptance of Israel in this region ever...Iran/Achmadinejad is only a symptom, not the reason...nor is he needed for the peace process.

As I said, just a big deflection to change the focus away from the real problem!

By softening them up and placing our troops there?

You are pulling our legs, aren't you....

Maybe so, BB, but don't be surprised if there's an invasion of Iran at some point in the future.

Oh I would be surprised because I doubt the US is that stupid, especially as the last catastrophes in Iraq and Afghanistan show that you are not easily able to do far away invasions (successful) anymore...

You would pay for it dearly, and it would probably spell the end of the american foreign policy for a long time, so I would be very, very surprised! :)

That is a fight you can't possible win....a quick air strike (or several of them) is the best you can do!

The world will not tolerate Iran. If they do have them, like Nomaderol thinks, they will be invaded sooner or later

Oh please...who is "The World"?
The US with their poodle UK again? They are overstretched in Iraq and Afghanistan already...and Iran is neither one of those, it's a totally different calibre.

I see an Israeli air strike at the reactor site (of course supported from Washington), but that's about it!
I doubt Iran is anyway near having a ready nuke and even if it would have one they won't use it. Israel has many more and they have nothing left to lose....but both govs need external enemies like nothing else to keep the focus off their internal problems.

Israel doesn't need to adress their Pali problem as the always "poor, threatened, victim" and Achmadinejad keeps people rallying around him who would otherwise had shown him the boot already....

It's all facade and politics in the end and no, no country is in the position to successfully invade this huge country and take it over.

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

I, for one, consider Michael Kessler quite interesting. And you.

Yes, I consider myself quite interesting too...

So it is a Polish stereotype of Germans for the potato cover on the German magazine.

Why so complicated? It shows definitely the hidden secret polish lust for german chancelloresses (spelling?)...

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

That is a German magazine cover and I think it says much more about German attitudes and stereo types the people who made it, much more than just listing off things :)

Well...I dunno about that....behind Merkel you can see the title of the polish magazin Wprost.
So it's definitely a polish fantasy! ;)

You want to rule the world, so you start the war but eventually get beaten and lose,
so you grow bitter and commence with planning the next war, which you again start
and again you lose. BOOOOOOOORING!

;)

Meanie!

by the way..when will you pay us the billion dollars for destruction after war?;p

That doesn't count, no stereotype!

Law / How will the Zloty be against the British Pound over the next 6-12 Months [45]

Zloty is a currency of a country whose GDP(whatever it means) does not count globally

That's not what you said in your original post, remember? ;)

All the currencies of countries with lots of immigrants will fall down all currencies of countries with less immigrants will remain stable or get up.This is my prediction.

The value of a currency depends on alot of things, but not on the number of immigrants!

News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

Given that you financed much of the program you got to pick the name but that wont work for most of the history books, they're already written.

Yes we did and yes they are! And if some Poles were inclined to read them they wouldn't repeat the same crap over and over...

WARSAW - Poles are up in arms over what they complain is the European Commission's "Germanization".

You can all froth at your mouth and throw tantrums as you want. All your "protestations" couldn't change it...maybe because it's just ridiculous?

blog.sstl.co.uk/archives/176-GMES-becomes-Kopernikus.html

GMES becomes Kopernikus

As it should! Not Copernicus or Koppernik or any other quatsch....

Kopernikus flies again

Nope, Hermann was a German translation from the name Arminius, the Romans have given him to romanize the wild German youth they had now as hostage.

Kopernik remained a loyal subject of Polish crown to his death

yaddayaddayadda...doesn't change his German heritage!

His fathers name was not latinized (he was a commoner) and was Mikołaj, it still exists in the archidiecesial library in Kraków.

You *** Sok! ;)

There is no proof that his father was either polish or German. If you would have one now suddenly you would become quite the sensation! :)

...pure bred Poles...all of them!

Dont you love how they ignore the Polish father? A reliable source!

What proof?

PS: He could have had sworn allegiance to the martians that still doesn't made him martian...is that so hard for you polish thick heads to understand?

It's about ethnicity, heritage, language, culture not political decisions!

Germany's biggest folk hero Arminius once swore allegiance to the Romans, he was so romanized that we don't even have his exact german name, that didn't made him Roman at all (as the Romans found out much to their chagrin later).

It was customary for Poles studing there to sign into German natio - which is not what Germans in XX century understand as a nation!

Well...what with all this "loyalty to Poland/Polish King"...why no Polish nation??? Doesn't fit somehow...

Keep on grasping at straws...I stay with this here:

plato.stanford.edu/entries/copernicus

Fighting between the Order of the Teutonic Knights and the Prussian Union in alliance with the Kingdom of Poland ended in 1466, and West Prussia, which including Torun, was ceded to Poland. Thus the child of a German family was a subject of the Polish crown.

That's all there is to his "polishness"...shifting of borders...as it happened so often in these lands.
Of no concern to his heritage and his culture or his language (as should partitions Poles very well know)!

Nope, he was enrolled in the university of Bologna by his Uncle as a member of German nation, there is no proof whatsoever that Kopernik thought of himself as German....

Leave it Sok, now it gets ridiculous..."mean" uncle Watzenrode!

"i'm a subject of the Polish king"

I wonder why there wasn't any "Polish Nation" to subscribe to in university...;)

if insecure German nationalists want to make him German, let it be ......Does it really matter ?

ROFL...more than 700 posts, what do you think!
(Most of them from very insecure polish nationalists..it needs two to tango)

At is not your that your ancestors were Germanized Poles :p

Proof???

I dont think Kopernik heard of being German himself, he might be quite suprised if he found out :)

Well, he enrolled in the university to Bologna as member of the German Nation!
I doubt he spoke one word polish at all...no proof for that!
