Love / DO RELIGIOUS POLISH GIRLS STILL EXIST IN THIS GENERATION [66]

No offence but these type of questions are rather juvenile.

How can you expect to stereotype a whole nation ?

Does every Polish girl behave like this ? Does every French man behave like that ?

It's impossible to generalise

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

Why do you automatically think that's a good thing (if true)?

Because he is an agitant who has never lived amongst muslims of any significant number. Seeing an occasional woman in a hijab is that memorable that he deems to write about it in a forum like it's some special event whereas members on here who have real experience of living amongst muslims don't even notice the attire of people we walk past on the streets.

I don't address his fake points because they are worthy of an intellectual argument-I address them because otherwise more impressionable people visiting this forum would have a distorted view of Poland and the question of Islamification of Europe.

The guy even thinks the IRA and Islamic extremists are comparable !

Mods-sorry for the over-quoting previously but it's difficult to know which of the many untruths Harry makes I need to correct.

How many Muslims living in Belgium can enter Poland without any checks whatsoever? That's right, all of them. Just as they can enter France freely.

Even by your standards that's a pretty big deviation to make. You are arguing against a point that I did not even make. I didn't say muslims cannot enter Poland freely. Your argument is empty. Why did muslims living in Belgium leave Nato headquarters alone ? Why did muslims living in Belgium leave the Vatican City alone ? Is that not considered a worthy target for you Harry ? Why was a British soldier decapitated yet Polish soldiers haven't been attacked even though they have also fought on Islamic soil ?

hey're certainly a more common sight than Vietnamese women

Thanks for the nice detour about Vietnamese women but we're not talking about them or whether Vietnamese women have kids are we ?

The fact that you don't know that religious Muslim women are a daily sight in central Warsaw is clear proof that you don't come here

There's no need to describe them as "religious muslim women"-if you are identifying them as "muslim" then they are clearly "religious"-your description is redundant.

Muslim women as a daily sight in Warsaw is not the same as saying there is large muslim community in Warsaw which is something that you continually allude to.

It's a real pity that you aren't old enough to remember when Britain used to be the target of 'Catholic' terrorists and that far more people died back then.

Not only do you pretend to know about my travel and living arrangements but you claim to know how old WhirlwindTobias is too. I am old enough to remember the IRA and I can educate you on this topic as you clearly have a muddled understanding if you're comparing the IRA to Islamic extremism.

The IRA were politically motivated-they sought the end of British rule in Northern Ireland and the reunification of Ireland. If the British government agreed to withdraw British troops and granted Northern Ireland autonomy then the bombing campaign would have ended.

The IRA generally, though not always, gave coded warnings to the police or the media of a bomb about to be detonated.

The IRA did not commit acts of terrorism in the name of Jesus or the Father or the Holy Spirit. They may have been Catholics but did not identify themselves as Catholic terrorists nor did they commit any acts of terrorism in the name of their religion. If you can prove otherwise then please share with us..........

On the other hand, ISIS, Al Qaeda etc do not want a political solution. They do not demand anything from us. They do not want to negotiate with us. They simply want to kill us because we are considered infidels.

Islamic terrorists make an explicit point of linking their killings with their faith and Allah. Even you Harry cannot deny this.

Attempting to compare the IRA with Islamic terrorists is pathetic.

The problem isn't Islam, the problem is with extremism, with radicalism.

<sighs> extremism of Islam Harry. You can't just be "extreme" and have nothing to be extreme about.

The problem is not the radicalization of Islam, but the Islamization of radicalism, as evidenced by the two British wannabe jihadists

No. It is not "evidenced" by the two British wannabe jihadists as the very fact that there were only two of them is not enough evidence to base an entire argument on-even though you try.

You appear to be showing an increasing amount of sympathy and support for Islamic extremists Harry..........

Please cut down on the number of quotes in future, three quotes per post is plenty.

Brussels, the de facto capital of the European Union and seat of the headquarters of NATO, I wonder which of those is a higher profile target.

You are applying your own disjointed reasoning to the actions of Islamic terrorists (unless you know something we don't).

So according to "Harry-logic" Islamic terrorists are targetting "high profile cities" only which is why Warsaw has been spared but Brussels hasn't been. According to Harry, the fact that Poland has not been targetted has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that there are very very few muslims living in Poland.

Make your own mind up about his argument

but personally I'd base a guess on the number of women wearing a hijab.

"Guess" being the operative word as basically you do not know do you ? You see a few women wearing a hijab (probably university students) and try to make an intelligent argument based on that experience. I'm surprised you don't provide us with photographic proof as we only have your word for it.

Perhaps if you ever set foot in Warsaw you can do the same. But that's probably unlikely, isn't it.

A good friend would probably advise you to stop opening your mouth as it makes you look like a fool. You know nothing about me-nothing. Your pathetic attempts at claiming I know nothing about Warsaw are again based on "Harry-logic" no facts, no sources, no evidence-just Harry's opinion dressed up as fact.

The reason there have been no attacks here is that Poland simply is not that important on the world stage.

That's complete BS. Belgium has suffered at the hands of Islamic extremism. Is that because (as you put it) it must be a important player on the world stage OR because it simply has a LOT more muslims living there ?

How many muslims live in Poland Harry ? I know you like to pretend that Warsaw is awash with your muslim friends but please provide a source rather than just saying "there's a lot of brown skinned people in Warsaw so I guess they must all be muslim".

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

Lads... it's over. Move to Eastern Europe

Wouldn't it be ironic if the Brexit'ers who wanted Poles out of the UK end up seeing Poland in 20 years time as a non-muslim sanctuary ?

Maybe, just maybe I'm starting to see a shift in the attitude here in the UK. People are getting pi**ed with the fact that EVERY terrorist act carried out over here is by muslims who make it abundantly clear they are doing it in the name of Allah.

Are you claiming that Islam or immigration is the root cause? You'll be wrong either way.

And there we have it. An outright denial by Harry that Islam has nothing to do with the recent acts of terrorism displayed on our TV screens.

Keep moving in the direction you're facing Harry and you may well end becoming a "person of interest" to certain intelligence organisations.

Oh yes, would you like to answer a question for me ? Why has Poland not suffered any acts of Islamic terrorism on Polish soil ?

Australia / Drug smuggling by Poles into Australia [4]

Thanks Delph for this article as I think it highlights the risk to Poland if it opens it borders to migrants especially as drug use is rife within the migrant community. Like every European country, Poland will have a drug problem. The last thing it needs is outside influences making the situation worse

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

Anti-Polish propaganda again ? Good-at least it gives us an opportunity for anyone reading to learn that the thread title is designed to make people think that ONLY Poles commit crimes in the UK-every other community are angels and saints.

Considering that Poles are the largest foreign group in the UK (according to the census and I'm not sure I believe that) then it's inevitable that Poles will commit crimes in the UK so posts like this are entirely pointless unless

a) you are trying to portray the image of Poles as criminals or delinquents
b) you are trying to avoid the fact that other minorities in the UK are committing crimes
c) you have an agenda which you are trying to push through this forum

Only your agenda of course is slanted in the "right" direction, eh?

From your perspective on the left then any opinion not shared by you and your ilk appears to be on the "right".

Poles have seen what happens when you allow Muslims in large numbers to settle. It's a disaster. Thankfully, by continuing to keep posts like this open we are given the opportunity to educate any Poles who may have thought otherwise.

UK, Ireland / Armed and Dangerous Polish man on the run in the UK [12]

Clearly a cautionary tale against open borders! Poland needs to watch carefully who's let in!

Agreed. Thankfully Poland doesn't allow any illegal migrants into their country which is a very good thing. A good example of why Poland should resist taking any migrants/refugees.

Thanks for the tip Delphian

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

By declaring that ALL Muslims aka adherents of Islam are by definition members or supporters of ISIS,

I certainly don't believe that is true but I do believe that Islam is a growing force that doesn't want to "settle and stablise" but by it's very nature will become a growing influence within Western society. In actual fact, I think Islamic terrorism is bad for many muslims as it puts a spotlight on the growing Islamification of many western countries. Without the violent spectacles then cultural jihad would creep along very nicely.

Now I know some of you pretend to be happy, clappy liberals and claim to love the muliticultural ethos but many of us have lived it and experienced it and we know better.

It is a huge lie that Islam will "enrich" Poland's culture and trying to convince us of the opposite is getting rather stale

Poles have had to endure the Nazis and Communists so a few limp wristed liberals writing spammy posts is not going to have any impact

Who are YOU to judge what's "garbage" vs. what isn't anyhow?

It's called having an opinion and having the freedom to express it-something that you and your friends on here have no problem demonstrating. Just because you do not share the same opinion doesn't mean we can't express our views.

How many innocent Polish lives have been taken at the hands of Islamic terrorists on Polish soil ? Ever thought there might be a reason for that ?

USA, Canada / The long and proud links between Polish and American Muslims [20]

With time, we can hope that both communities will grow, build new mosques and that their community will continue to go from strength and strength.

Or Poland can celebrate the tatar muslims who have been in Poland for centuries but ensure no further muslims enter Poland.

Lol. You guys are not even trying to be subtle now lol

Yes it is, and nobody has to 'answer' anything.

Jon, if you are saying it is the "key question" then we can be certain it is NOT. We're getting to know you by now.

Is it pointless asking you any questions at all as you seem to ignore the ones that you can't find an intellectual argument for.

Let's try eh ?

What is your definition of a "refugee". Do you distinguish between a "refugee" and an "economic migrant" and would you allow them both the same hospitality in a western country or would you treat them differently.

Ladies and gentlemen of the forum-let's see if Jon dodges this question again.

I remember some people here saying that the refugees should be drowned.

They should not be drowned but we need to establish whether they are refugees or migrants and that should not be done on western soil as we simply don't eject anyone who can't prove their identity or reason for the journey.

I think Australia patrols their own waters with gun boats and sends any boats back to where they came from. We should definitely do this. We could set up and even fund a refugee admissions centre in North Africa and allow the genuine cases to come over legally.

UK, Ireland / WHAT IS IT ABOUT POLISH PEOPLE THAT MAKES THEM THINK THAT UK WANTS THEM? [309]

Poles don't "take" jobs from British people.

British employers sometimes choose Polish workers over British ones-deal with it.

If it bothers you so much then why aren't you writing to your local MP about the number of manufacturing jobs that moved to India and China over the last 20 years. This has had a far greater impact to British workers than anything else. Then again, I bet you don't care where your trainers were made from or if the bedding that you sleep on has been made in the Far East putting thousands of British jobs on the scrap heap

THAT is clearly garbage.

Of course it is garbage. There's a lot of textbook liberals on this forum who are tolerant of Islamification of the West yet they have no actual experience of living in and amongst a muslim community.

@jon357

Sixth request Jon ? Are you afraid to stand up for what you believe in or too scared to say what you really think ? It doesn't actually matter as I can see Admin are happy to allow you to make claims and accusations that you then fail to back up. Perhaps it's time the rest of us start doing the same in the interests of equality of course

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

The point is though that as much as certain European countries wish to remain hermetically sealed off from the non-Christian world, the fact remains that it isn't Islam that's bad, as with guns or firearms in and of themselves

True but rather an obvious point to make.

Guns and firearms are not bad of themselves but if one allows thousands of weapons to be made available to anybody then the probability of some problems down the road increases sharply.

We don't need to speculate or hypothesise. This isn't the 1970's and we don't have to debate what a combined Islamic/Western society would look like. We already know.

@jon357

Fifth requestto explain your accusation Jon ?

I think it has been proven already why muslims are seen as a deterrent to Poland-perhaps not the most precise of title threads but we get the gist.

Conduct a survey on the streets of Poland and I am certain most people would agree that they do not want large numbers of muslims moving to Poland. You can argue they are wrong until you are blue in the face but it won't change anything.
