History / Dutchmen in Polish history ! [17]

I guess

Vandals Germanic tribe had a great tradition for mutilations
They kin Dutch are also in business of destruction
Somehow they destroy balance of the nature putting barriers to the sea
Now, they want mutilate objects of beauty - barbarians!
Yet, they will learn someday, weeping for lost Art - its only beginning!

History / WW2 hypothesis - if France And England weren't so timid, wimpy and scared of Hitler... [34]

I think if the Poles had a well-equipped guerilla army with the sole intention that the army would blend in with civilians, Stalin wouldn't have wanted anything to do with it. I've always, always wondered why Poland tried to fight a conventional war - if she had learnt the lessons from the Irish War of Independence, she might very well have survived intact.

That tactics with ruthless opponent is no good, destroyed towns, murdered civilians, been there in 1863, regular army is must for victory.

History / WW2 hypothesis - if France And England weren't so timid, wimpy and scared of Hitler... [34]

few points of mine :

-Poland before the war was European power
-if given 5-8years Poland would be on par with Germany at last technologically and military !
-Hitler wanted to attack France first but was afraid that Poland will attack his back, so he proposed alliance to Poland and when she declined, made a deal with Soviets and then eliminated Poland.

-without Wall Street credits German economy wouldn't recovered in time to start the war as early as it did/

- Versatile treaty was to some extend vengeance of France over Germany for humiliation in 1871, nevertheless it wasn't only reason for war.
- Don't forget about Stalin who wanted regain territories belonging to former Russian empire.
- France was done for, but nobody knew it yet.

News / Poland's elite more pro-US than society? [29]

I guess it's all about $$$$$$$$$$

not all, there is something in USA that appeals to Poles .....on the other hand, individual Russian are great but as a state Russia simply is instinctual detestable for average Pole (and I'm not talking history)

Why so?

American individualistic and competitive culture is very agreeable to Poles.

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

I would personally pay for the tear gas used if the riot police would be nice enough to sweep the scum off the street outside the president's palace.

I know you would use other to carry out your violent fantasy, you are too much of the coward to do something in person.

History / Norman Davies - the Brit who loves Poland and becomes one of Us [250]

Lucy Dawidowicz another obscure idiot and Zionist (Zionist as in Jewish Nationalist).
Well, in 1938 she went from New York to Poland to work in Yiddish Scientific Institute, then in 1939 she goes back to States, and then she dare to accuse (?) Davies of whitewashing Poles as they are such terrible anti-semites! Calling kettle black ?

es - I did read Neighbours. Gross is indeed a bit over the top at times, but he gives a fair overview of things and he is a brave man as well, imo.

don't say, all that money and publicity - terrible and dangerous!

Proof of what? That some Jews joined the Communist ranks? So what? There were Russians and Poles who joined those ranks too. What I always wonder about is why it's been taken so harshly on Jews that joined the Communist ranks, when I hear nothing about the Poles, Russians, etc who joined their ranks?

You hear nothing? Well, because nobody deny that they joined Communist ranks - they were traitors.
Proof of the fact that Jews were not always victims but perpetrators also, and if you'll find few Poles that killed Jews(not necessary because their were Jews) the same can be said about Jews.

So, when you said that attitude of a few Jews cannot be generalised as a attitude of all Jews (or majority) the same could be said about Poles.

[zetigrek]From a Polish women who wasn't an antisemite[/quote]
You see Poles are not telling the truth, you would need an Jewish witness to be taken seriously.
You better ask for a definition of anti-semite!
