Poland Should Beef Up Military [286]
i dunno what happened, during communist times he had a almost half a million armed forces, 3rd largest in Europe after the Soviet Union and West Germany, and in quality of equipment it was in comparison also on NATO average. Knowing Polands history and its two big neighbors, just cause of them we should have a large standing army, not 120,000 but maybe 300,000 troops, and it wouldn't be all that expensive, ending compulsory service and becoming profesional the armed forces save hundreds of millions of dollars a year, that go for training new recruits. the U.S Army saves 2 billion every year. We've had guarantees of freedom before and it didn't do any good, Britain and France pledged to help us, the didn't lift a finger in WWII. We fought for them, in Battle of Britain, in Normandy, Monte Cassino, in the east in Berlin, again the betrayed us after the war, leaving us to the Russians. And this whole American anti-missile missles deal is the same thing, it's only for Americas benefit, to protect America from Iran, North Korea, and above all Russia, it's just making us a target, if Russia nukes us or invades, the 200 man American garison will pack up and leave, leaving us alone, AGAIN.
