Why HMG (Her Majesty's Government) abandoned Poland to the Soviets [30]
I bow to your old age, you must be over 100 by now. I need to point out that your memory is failing your sir, it was Britain that curried favor from Poland to the extend that they were ploting a coup to change regime in Poland in order to make Poland fight Germany.
Over 100 to remember the Iraq war?? The sentence you were trying to understand was about events only a decade ago....
I must ask you sir, are you making this up as you go?
At least you address me correctly as Sir, however do be aware that in English it needs a capital S. If however you doubt the truth of that sentence (and that is likely since you are confusing events 60 years apart) I'll happily supply you with economic figures to show the state of the Polish economy and their level of defence spending prior to joining the US-led coalition. As you were assuming that the sentence you failed to understand was about the Second World War (in fact it was in reply to a post comparing Poland's alliances with other countries during both) I'll also be very happy to quote you some interesting bits of information about the run up to that war too - particularly the economic depression in Poland (and most of the world) together with the level of defence spending (and army size) compared with other European countries.
What saved B. asses along with few other things was a fact Poland went to war with Hitler instead making a deal with him as all other countries of the region.
That was not an option for Poland. Some there may have wanted it however very little in the mid-Twentieth Century in general and WW2 in particular was about what Poland actually wanted
