Yes, the English once won 5:1 in a friendly against Germany...they like to brag about it even today! :)
Wins against Germans seem to count double, doesn't happen often - feared warriors we are! :)

Life / What is the reason for POLISH jokes ? [486]
Tell me more about it or even better provide some sources for your again repeated opinon!
I don't buy it...I never heard Germans bail over from laughing about polish jokes during the Nazi time, you are actually the first one who seems to be convinced of that!
Also that wouldn't explain the tradition of those jokes wherever the Poles go nearly a century now...
Not everything is Made in Germany!
Let's look what Wiki has to say: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Polish_sentiment#.22Polish_jokes.22
First:
Really! So short after the the end of the worlds' bloodiest conflict where the Germans had been the hated enemy the Americans have nothing better to do but to listen to them and to laugh with them cruelly about their brave allies, the Poles???
Highly unlikely!
Then this:
Now that's more like it!
But then again the origin of the Polish "jokes" came from German Nazi propaganda

Let's look what Wiki has to say: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Polish_sentiment#.22Polish_jokes.22
First:
...Presumably the first Polish jokes by German DPs (displaced persons) fleeing war-torn Europe were brought to America in the late 1940s. These jokes were fueled by ethnic slurs disseminated by German National Socialist propaganda, which attempted to justify the Nazi murder by presenting Poles as "dreck", dirty, stupid and inferior.[36] It is also possible that some of the earliest American Polack jokes from Germany, were originally told before World War II in disputed border-regions such as Silesia.[37]
Really! So short after the the end of the worlds' bloodiest conflict where the Germans had been the hated enemy the Americans have nothing better to do but to listen to them and to laugh with them cruelly about their brave allies, the Poles???
Highly unlikely!
Then this:
...There's a debate whether these early "Polish jokes" brought to states like Wisconsin by German immigrants were directly related to the wave of American jokes of the early 1960s. Some of the most "provocative critique of previous scholarship on the subject"[38] has been made by British writer Christie Davies in The Mirth of Nations suggesting that "Polish jokes" did not originate in Nazi Germany, but a lot earlier, as an outgrowth of regional jokes rooted in "social class differences reaching back to the nineteenth century." According to Davies, American versions of Polish jokes are an unrelated "purely American phenomenon" and do not express the "historical Old World hatreds of the Germans for the Poles."[39]...
Now that's more like it!

Yes I knew my argument were kinda silly the moment I typed it..

Because they would get their rear ends sued off, careers destroyed and they would have to apologize publicly for years to come.

Well the Nazis were German which negated any joke making abilities.

Any supporting links for that opinion of your's?
Nazi-Germany ridiculed Jews, you don't find sites full with Jewish jokes today...
Neither the Nazis nor the Commies developed the "Polish jokes"!

The Dutch race???
The Dutch aren't a race!
There are the White Race, the Blacks, the Asians.
Poles, Germans, Dutch etc...belong to the same race, the white Race.
Why is that so problematic?

That's why I'm saying that instead of waiting if this timebomb explodes maybe we should take Nord Stream as a chance to clear some of the worst stuff from the Baltic.
I can't imagine the firms building such an expensive pipeline besides such things...that is just waiting for a catastrophe (and a loss of money)!
A Rusting Timebomb in the Baltic
By Axel Bojanowski
World War II bombs, poisonous chemicals, sudden explosions of rusting ordnance pose a major threat to the Baltic Sea in the years to come, say experts. But governments are slow to tackle the problem.

Okay...I will word this question another way:
WHO takes care of it!
Is this territory clean because there is NOTHING but nature or is there actually someone responsible like...say...a party....who takes care that the industry there makes sure to keep the nature clean???
Pollution, Habitat Destruction, and Biodiversity in Poland
* Jacek Oleksyn,
* Peter B. Reich
Doesn't sound that good....

Pollution, Habitat Destruction, and Biodiversity in Poland
* Jacek Oleksyn,
* Peter B. Reich
In the past 50 years, Poland has experienced unprecedented deterioration of the environment and loss of biodiversity. Emissions of toxic gases, such as SO2, have reached 3 to 4 million tons annually, widely affecting flora, fauna, and human health. Almost all surface waters are heavily polluted.
More than 75% of the water in the Vistula, Poland's largest river, is unsuitable even for industrial use.
As many as 2500 plant species may be endangered (≈25% of all species) and approximately 228 (≈2%) have been extirpated from Poland.

Pat...there is no dispute that the environment is an important factor...that all started only as Lukasz more or less implied Germany and Russia being not interested and not concerned with the preserving of the environment of the Baltic Sea...putting Poland in a role of a righteous eco warrrior with only the purest motives!
Both is not right!
Neither can do a german firm plan something WITHOUT checking environmental issues first nor is Poland famous for their interest in and fight for a cleaner environment!
