History / Poland's law and justice.. return of Sanacja? [19]

Do you think the Soviets would have even invaded if the Polish Army was waging a guerilla war against the Germans?

I don't know what they would do IF the Polish Army stopped German invasion if given different, better military leadership. Hard to tell, My gut feeling from knowing soviet mentality intimately - yes they would.

History / Poland's law and justice.. return of Sanacja? [19]

he anticipated a world war on his deathbed and before that even.

Sure, is there any evidence of that beside old washerwomen tales? Nope!

Pilsudski putting Smigly in the highest office in the land? nope!

He could hardly make him Marshal after his own dead. He put him in the position where he could claim it himself. Think!

Sanacyjna or not going against Germany would always be a crushing defeat lol,

I doubt it. They have screwed up badly in the department of the military preparations for which JP was personally responsible.

Life / Driving skills of drivers in Poland? [41]

But surely the same could be said of men

As I said they are dangerous and bad in a different way. Reckless and aggressive - that can be cured. Women drivers - thoughtless, hesitant and insecure, without understanding of a traffic, without grasp of spatial dynamic - not really curable.

History / Poland's law and justice.. return of Sanacja? [19]

any evidence of Pilsudski wanting Rydz Smigly to be in power after his death?

It doesn't matter what he wanted or not. He is dead. What matters is what had happened, he put those dudes in power, he made 'sanacyjna' Poland and look at the result - a crushing defeat.

Are we...agreeing?

I agree with your first two paragraphs. He was a good Leader in 1918 - 1920, a great military commander in 1920 but an absolute disaster as anything that involved governing and such.

Poland should have trained a guerilla force

The fun fact is they did. Not enough and most of them flared up prematurely probably due to dumb instructions.

It wasn't question of money and technology but of the bad management... Poland could still lose against might of Germany and Soviets combined but it wouldn't be such a crushing defeat as in fact it was.

That suggests tat everyone voted into office is a sterling patriot deidcated only to the good of the nation. The public is easily swayed by clever propaganda,.

Sure, like he tried to sway public opinion by clever propaganda. Yet , he wouldn't wanted to risk to go through with putting his popularity to the test. A military coup d'état is not a good solution. His whole program was ME BE in charge - ego too big maybe. His rule achieved preciously little.

IME simply showing him often speaking has a very negative affect on most Polish people

Negative effect? all that JK? Man you really hold a grudge or are simply obsessed. I could point out or name names of people ion Poland whose actions or inaction wrought really adverse effects on the whole populace in Poland as well as ended up tragically for quite a few individuals. Those people in a large number take a precedence over JK and his influence on the country. His negativity is highly overrated in the context he operate.

I guess talking to you is like talking top a blind man about color.

his governing in a way purified the definition of a dictatorship.

What do ya mean? purified? Was he some kind of a bleach in your mind?

sure thing that he can be blamed for the WWII failure. After all his ego and his inability to govern put in charge of Poland the some inept group that screwed up badly.

I don't know about statistics but the fact remains (based on experience) women are a crappy drivers, dangerous too. Sure dude are speeding, drink driving and all that stupid nonsense that is connected to adrenalin and risky behaviour but with age they generally mellow down. Whereas even though plenty of women drivers are good drivers some of them are just right down ****** and shouldn't be allowed on the public roads.

What are your opinions NeoSanacja or nope?

They are somewhat, in a sense they themselves are seeing it as a kind of a 'good example' to follow.
They're not as circumstances are completely different. Similarities are only superficial.

Some have accused Piłsudski of being a dictator,

He was a dictator.

to see the country rife with corrupiton and going to pieces.

Sure, according to him. Somehow he didn't want to stand to election to put his claim to the test. Must have been crap and propaganda.

News / Reporter says she would trade 10 Polish lives if it helped thousands of immigrants [61]

An outright denial by Harry that Islam has nothing to do with the recent acts of terrorism displayed on our TV screens

Think nought about it. As a commie/progressive Harry is beyond a reason and redemption.
The recent acts of terrorism have everything to do with Islam and immigration of Muslims onto European soil.

UK, Ireland / Polish trucker jailed for tachograph fraud [4]

or the Polish community

What make you say that he is a part of that 'community'? according to your source he came to the UK via Dover.

Clearly the long arm of British justice succeeded in this case.

But not in your case.

you need to be supervised as you're clearly a mentally disturbed 'person'. If you have a garden or somthing of the kind, it would be wise to check it up for decided bodies.

News / Mysterious death of Magdalena Żuk on holiday in Egypt [144]

since you think there's something wrong in sticking to the known facts

I think is wrong to stick to rumors that fit your 'theory' as to what had happened and to dismiss those rumors that go contrary to YOUR theory.

The know facts are as follow, young women from Poland without any evident health problems went for a trip to Egypt. Three days on she was dead.

News / After 77 years, Krakow school does the right thing [40]

Classic victim blaming.

Classic BS talking.

ou're trying to suggest that Jewish people during the holocaust had a wide range of life choices?

Young and healthy had a choice to join or not to join Jewish police or to collaborate or not to collaborate with the Nazis. Those are facts.

Brutally forced collaboration is a more accurate expression.

REally? No one had been forced to join Jewish Police in getto, some people used bribery to get into it.

UK, Ireland / Polish slave trader in the UK has sentence increased [56]

Perhaps if you'd been in Poland since 1989, you'd know a little about modern Poland.

I'm in Poland right now. I still mantain that you're an expert in pimps department, be it in England be it in Poland. \

Modern slavery,

Well, you should look into the Arab gulf countires, than Asia and then some other region of the glob before you start talking about Europe.

UK, Ireland / Polish slave trader in the UK has sentence increased [56]

you'll quickly find that pimps are far more commonplace in Poland than in the UK.

You're an expert here. I grant you that.

s victims of modern slavery,

What are you talking about? Prostitution? Given that in Germany and Holland it is a legal bussien and still they lure women from foreign countries. I Don't trust their offcial records.

I think it's a source of ongoing survivors guilt.

I think is a due to close collaboration of the Jewish police and authorities in gettos with the Nazi Germany. Plus with a staggering indifferenceof the American Jews as to the fate of their European kin.

Life / Why are Muslims seen as a deterrent to Poland? [564]

Your views are not consistent with what you say.

My views are consistent. I'm not a blind fanatic like yourself. It would make no sense to kick out people who have been living in Poland for a few generations. It doesn't mean I want some Muslism settling in the country.

Personally I have nothing against Muslim, I have a Muslim acquaintance.- if that matters as all. \

I'm clearly against relocation of Muslism to Poland mainly because of Islam.

the fact remains that it isn't Islam that's bad,

THAT is clearly garbage.
