History / Why are Jews pestering Poland for "proper" WW2 monetary restitution/reparations? [750]

(with full proof of ownership)

Once again, this is not about heirs who want their property returned; it is about heirless property which some unscrupulous Jewish organizations claim belongs to all Jewish people. Is it so difficult to see through this scam?

Now, again, Jewish heirs have the same rights as Poles to demand satisfaction in Polish courts. Some of these from both groups are successful at it, and some aren't. The claims are about 15% Jewish and 8o% Poles.

From wiki on Israel Singer:

In 1996, the Reuters news agency reported that at a meeting of the WJC congress in Buenos Aires, Singer said "[m]ore than three million Jews died in Poland and the Polish people are not going to be the heirs of the Polish Jews. We are never going to allow this.... They're gonna hear from us until Poland freezes over again. If Poland does not satisfy Jewish claims it will be publicly attacked and humiliated."[2] This was perceived as another threat, but this time against Poland.

Many think that the "Polish death camps" smears in the world press are exactly part of this "public attack and humiliation" campaign.

News / Polish Independence Day-Beware? [59]

Marxists and anarchists have never been happy about Poland's independence. Nothing has changed. Thus a conflict.

The mistake they made this year is that they invited German hooligans, armed them, and didn't brief them that spitting on Polish Army uniforms is a no-no if you portray yourself as a "tolerant" bunch.

A father of one of the German neo-nazi, (antifa) hoodlooms arrested on Nowy Swiat has said that his son and his friends require now...psychological counseling after the traumatic stay at the police station. Touching, huh?

The "antifascist" hippies, travelers, homosexuals, etc. want to fight imaginary fascism with fascist methods, all in the name of tolerance. It backfired this year as will their future attempts to turn our national holiday into another rainbow, bongo fest.

Work / Internships in Polish mass media [23]

You do realise that some of the PiS-owned media has very dubious roots, too?

Hello, edit . Why don't you give us a run down of Polish media. I think you are the chump who has Google translator all figured out.

Do start with pro-PiS TV stations though and then go on to the dailies and then the weeklies. When you get done with that, give us your opinion on the main opinion makers' views in the main two dailies(ask your Polish girlfriend's mother which ones they are) and tell us what are the main discussions between the opposing camps. Does Holocausto ring a bell to you? Does treason ring a bell?

Well, you've been here for three years now, you've mastered the language by now, so do give us a run down of the PiS-owned media. We Poles would love to read your interpretation of what is going on in our country.

I guess you could call this check the bullshitter post. Consider yourself lucky that I take the time to even reply to your post, hero.

Food / "Modern" Polish cooking (funny video clip) [21]

I thought only potheads raiding the fridge invented "dishes" like that.

This ciacho has no concept of taste. Do you think he picked this up in England working na zmywaku?

Among my friends, I am slowly introducing celery instead of corn in tuna fish salad and also trying to wean my wife of ketchup on pizza. Strange concoctions abound in PL. Some very amusing.

Alcohol drinks are a field that really make you crack up. Anyone experience ordering a White Russian or a Bloody Mary? What did get? It is getting better though. The thing about us Poles is that once we catch on we insist we have always known it. We don't like losing face.

Life / Your Polish friends - why do you regard them as such? [41]

Me and Seanus prefer a more noble kind of associate.

Tell us about your associate then or better yet, your Polish friends, if you have any. Surely you have an antifa buddy or a queer rights activist friend.

Feedback / PolishForums Motto? :) [149]

The motto should be Amor Patriae Nostra Lex and it should be understood. Next time you pick a moderator team, Tom, throw in a token Pole instead of a worrying about a slogan.

News / Multi-culti (in Poland) -- roadmap to disaster? [344]

but nobody can immigrate to Poland?

I know plenty of immigrants in Poland. Perhaps they are less likely to settle in your village so you think there none.

Genealogy / Komorowski clan-name Korczak [16]

Perhaps you might want to start by telling me what someone's parents have to do with them as a person?

If you have children, you will understand.

I'm sure she is a nice lady, raised five children, respected her parents and all. I do remember when a first article in the press came out about her family several months after she rode Gaff's coat tails to the Presidential Palace. Not as glorious as her husband's family, that's for sure. With both parents' dedicated career in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ministry_of_Public_Security_(Poland) the voters might have considered that when making a choice.

Work / Close Protection (Bodyguard) - popular line of work in Poland? [19]

so your best bet would be to start the company and not work for it. and of course pick up the language as much as possible.

This industry is controled by ex-SB; you won't be able just to start your own firm just like that.

How about his wife - the First Lady? She likes to talk about her husband's family, but I've never heard her talk about hers though. What is her family line?

Travel / Attractions in Wrocław: a Must-See List [117]

I have not seen anything about Wroclove. The point was that Wrocław is unpronounceable by foreigners as seen written and often written Wroctaw. Vrotzlove comes close to true pronunciation. Being from £orsoł I could care less though.

History / Poland history uprising rings? [7]

The ring was distributed for a donation to help finance the Pomnik Powstania Warszawskiego in Warsaw built in 1989.
pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomnik_Powstania_Warszawskiego

The communists were not interested in commemorating the Warsaw Uprising since it was AK who organized it. After the war, those AK soldiers were called fascists and many were imprisoned and or executed for being on the side of Germany(sic). This communist propaganda is still peddled in certain post-communist and Jewish circles.

You can see the ring for sale here:

History / Sabaton 40-1. Poland WW2 (updated with: Uprising) [39]

The German army forces and equipment, unfortunately, exceeded the Polish forces and armament .

The Nazi forces and their then allies, the Soviet Union, to be more accurate.

History / Sabaton 40-1. Poland WW2 (updated with: Uprising) [39]

Towards the end of the war they built up a couple of full cavalry divisions to act as scouts and for partisan warfare.

Yes, the last charge of WWII was by Waffen SS in 1945. Clearly, it all depends on the terrain you are engaged in, so using tanks in mountainous or swampy terrain would be silly.

Despite all the advanced technology, U.S. will have to pack up and leave Afghanistan beaten by the low-tech shepherds, just like everyone had to do before them. We could say the Afghanies are invincible.

Life / The day Poland ran out of artists. [40]

She chooses to live and work her and wants to be a credit to the nation.

By having some Marxist yelling for Jews to come back? When Helen Thomas said that there was a worldwide condemnation and she was fired. We, Poles, have had a bad experience with marxist Jews already and we don't need a Jew to represent us in the resurrection of those Nightmares we experienced. Let Israelis live in their own country in the paradise they've created.

Life / The day Poland ran out of artists. [40]

NSZ namiotist type....

You seem obsessed with NSZ. These soldiers were exactly like the gen.Maczek's soldiers that liberated the villages in Belgium where your parents lived during the war. I think the word national scares you. Why is that? I remember when a national holiday, Independence Day, freaked you out and you ran home to start a thread about how some nationalists were mean to anarchists. Of course, you didn't bother to see the commemorations, you went to see a handful of opposite extremes, all you saw was nazis and marxists. Ooooohhhh. You should start a thread on the Polish antifascist movement and I will help you with its history and even with the history of whole antifa movement. You will be tickled.

I still remember "the artist" Rafał Betlejewski vandalising walls with his slogan "Jew, I miss you".

I remember him. I've read some foreign reviews of his "art." Well received. They especially enjoyed his barn burning.

Anyway, it only seems reasonable that Polish artists should represent Poland abroad at a national pavilion. Gee, on Polish Forums not one artist with an opinion.

Actually, on second thought, Europe will be stunned when they see our cafe ubermarxist, Sierakowski, screaming in the middle of an empty football stadium "We want 3 million Jews to come back!!!" She should have incorporated Helen Thomas in the film.

The exhibition ... and Europe will be stunnedwill be the official Polish participation at the 54th International Art Exhibition in Venice in 2011. This video installation by the Israeli-born artist Yael Bartana will be the first time a non-Polish national has represented Poland in the history of the Venice Biennale.

I don't know if Europe will be stunned but Polish artists might be.

Life / How many Jewish people live in Poland? [145]

Now tell me please how many non-Jewish Poles were killed in years 1945-1956 in Poland. And by the way, can you check what was the percentage of Jews employed in Polish communist oppression apparatus?

This is a blank spot for most of the posters here. Right after the war, the returning Jews found excellent career opportunities in the Stalinist state terror administration and thus the description for the new government - Jewcommune. Understanding this period is essential. Any Jedwabne, pogroms, real or imaginary, put all together pale to the terror, torture, and executions of Poles at the hands of Jewish prosecutors and judges. This deserves its own thread.

USA, Canada / Polish-Americans as seen in the false mirror. Type A and Type B. [141]

Strangely enough, expats working for wellbeing of Poland here cannot vote,

You and I have the responsibility as citizens to defend this country; expats living here do not. They can simply leave while you and I simply can't should the country be threatened. That is part of the reason that citizens vote.

BTW, weren't you in the army during martial law? How was it?

News / Jerusalem Post: Poland's good intentions [30]

The main problem with this issue is that decent Jewish folk are not vocal to protest this obvious racket that has become an industry for a few super-rich Jews and a bunch of Holocaust horror museums . I know, it's for the survivors; they just never get the actual money. In Israel, many live in poverty.

In Poland, 14% of claims are by Jews. They can get in a court line with the rest of Poles. The 80% or so. The Jewish heirs do go to court and do recover property, so enough about that.

Now, these crooks want money for heirless property as if one Jew's property belongs to all Jews.

History / What was it like in 1989+ in Poland when the Soviet house of cards fell? [237]

There are so many things I would like to know about the history that was the life when I was a baby, yet no historical facts are available really.

You have no chance for that, I'm afraid, unless you join the ranks of Żelaznoboki.

Jola, I'm sure Delphi knows enough about Poland and what the communism was like.

He's 25 and has been in Poland a couple of years only. He's not read one book in Polish, but plays a guru on this forum (with not one Polish moderator) on all things related to Poland. A neo-marxist with typical logical fallacies for arguments. He and a few others reduce this board to anti-Polish propaganda forum. Stick around, as you seem to halt his usual "discussions."

Haven't read the novel you mentioned and my reading at the moment are the excellent books by Ossendowski. Have a read through this article or take a ride on Grójecka 27 to see how the word anti-communist "hurts" some Varsovians.
