Bit of a mixed bag here when it comes to politics, seems to be an attitude of everyone for him/her self.

Yep make hay today and future generations can deal with the fallout, not as if many of the trees were diseased I stopped and checked, there are plenty of accusations of money making and back-handers, how true don't know, but if someone was thinking in investing in agro tourism in Poland today I would say forget it don't waste your money.

Not exactly connected but this year I have noticed that many thousands of trees alongside the country roads are being cut down, the excuse is the roads have been reclassified?? and trees along the roads cause accidents???????.

The fact is many places I used to drive through were once an attraction in their own right, but now the trees have gone all you see is old commie factories and rundown buildings chimneys shittyy datchas etc.

So much for promoting agro tourism in my area , Its gonna be a bleak and horrid here soon , All hail the motor car I guess.

You will have to cut him some rope, he comes from my generation that did still have the balls and wherewithal to defend Britain sadly we are all over fifty and only any good at being armchair generals, as for the younger generations they would be best off surrendering at the first sign of trouble.

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [900]


Britain has not got the resources to defend itself the current government has run the military into the ground, the opposition party is made up of new wave commies who cant wait to build a new commie state, as for the odd nuke, no one in Britain would have the balls to press the button they would rather (and are best at) arranging a victory parade for putins army.

As for getting together a large enough force of people to fight a war many people in Britain have no national sense of identity or pride, the libtatrds have brainwashed them into some kind of LBQT snowflake, millennial pussies.

Only my opinion from what I see of Britain today,any sense nationalism and pride in the once great nation has been mostly wiped out.

This is a god read If you are Polish or polish American, sums things up regarding help for Poland.

Exactly Britain had the balls to declare war on the evil nazi bastards but sadly did not have the resource to hold back the new blitzkrieg tactics also it never had any allies with the same size balls willing to help, Britain was left on its knees after the war with huge debts, but still continued to ration food to its own people so that some would be left to feed the starving of Europe including its enemy Germany.

So go figure keep bashing the first nation to stand for the freedom of another nation "Poland" who by the way did have nothing to offer no mineral or oil reserves of value , compare that to the reason why the leader of the so called free world decides to go to war.

History / Thinking of changing Wikipedia's Holocaust article to include genocide of Poles. [78]

It won't but what they did is still the hidden holocaust that many leftist Marxists and Russians are trying hard to sweep under the carpet.

This history is not taught in many schools around the world, only a mention of Katyn at the most.

liberation by looting, murdering policemen, teachers doctors, raping children and deporting whats left to be slave labour in Siberia.

Maybe we need ,more statues of soviets depicting their real acts of liberation as above.

Poland and Britain have always had a close relationship and long may it continue.

As for those who wish to create division, I say let them eat dirt.

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [900]


He said nothing of the sort or you are trying to twist what he wrote.

theguardian.com/books/2003/nov/08/featuresreviews.guardianreview2

Note the use of charitable note the government of the time was pro marxist and had pro soviet leaning members

The exclusion of the Poles from Britain's 1945 victory parade in contrast, may charitably be attributed to muddle. Though the Polish government, our exiled wartime ally, was still in London, invitations were sent to the communist regime in Warsaw. When no response was forthcoming, Ernest Bevin saw the mistake and sent a last-minute apology to Poland's General Anders

Stich up comes to mind

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [900]

As I spent many evenings with my father and his comrades who fought for Britain and Poland dinguring WWII, you can imagine this subject arose many times, their understanding was that the soviets were happy with Polish RAF personnel attending the parade but under no circumstances would they be happy with the sight of many thousands of free Polish soldiers marching through the streets of Britain, It would not suit their propaganda machine in Poland who were trying to erase these brave men from Polish history, understandably the Polish RAF veterans refused to march unless it was open to all Free Polish forces

Note the apology below, I think it settles the matter.

Michael Moszynski is the son of Captain Stefan Moszynski of the 1st Polish Armoured Division (which closed the Falais Gap in August 1944). When in 2003 he heard about this for the first time he was deeply moved by the injustice of it all, so became determined to put things right and wrote to Tony Blair. He managed to secure the first ever apology to a private citizen from a Prime Minister regarding the British Government's failure to invite the Polish armed forces to the Victory Parade

Well you better go and argue with the British Legion then, let us know what they say when you put your argument to them.

This is worth watching, especially the interviews Polish RAF veterans themselves, they mention the victory parade and talk about it from their prospective.

The above should have told the Soviets to withdraw to the pre 1939 lines or suffer the consequences of nuclear war. but I think he was a liberal so he gave it all up hoping he could convince the soviets to be nice to all the people they had enslaved.

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [900]


notwithstanding the fact that if Britain (Alone at that time) declared war on Russia it would be fighting the war on two fronts, its crucial naval safe haven of Scapa Flow would be open to Russian attack, the British fleet would have been destroyed by Russian/German cooperation leaving it with no chance of fighting off invasion.

Hitler opened a front with Russia look at what happened.

Sorry Britain was bled dry (ldepletion of gold reserves) during the war, it was in no position to make any threats or decisions in the support Poland, It was struggling to barely take care of its own people.

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


Got to say in the years I have been in Poland I have not heard anyone say anything about the Jews, after Germany murdered Polish Jews by the million during WWII the survivors fled for their lives , I guess there are not many poles under 60 who have had the chance to live with Jewish people so probably would not have any experience to form judgement apart from what they read in the news . the only hot topic I come across day to day here is talk about migrants, that's about it.

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


Exactly you can't be a christian if you persecute Jews

Romans 12:19

Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.

So its up to god , as Kaprys said he died for human sin so he knew what he was doing. and in any case you cant blame all Jews for what happened, same as you can't blame all Muslims for terrorism.

So to sum up someone who hates and persecutes Jews cannot be a Christian.

Harry has not got a clue about our history in fact he is always the first to deny anyone who puts forward facts that have been passed down from people who lived through those terrible times in fact the way Harry logic works is that my parents deportation to Siberia was a free holiday from Stalin, the rape of women and murder of teachers policemen and ex servicemen in my parents village was a mere fabrication an lie, beware the old school expats that came to Poland many years ago to escape conservative Britain still hoping to find the embers of Marxist soviet ism in Poland all they found was hard work for not allot of money as was the way in Poland at that time, they cannot even leave Poland for Britain as their net worth would leave them in poverty back in their homeland.
