The term tea totaler in quite common in the States

Almost, it's teetotaler.... but I've never heard it used in relation to tobacco, only alcohol.

Warsaw Uprising: The Heroic Last Stand of the Polish Home Army

The Soviet Red Army was rapidly approaching from the East, and after the Katyn Massacre, when the USSR executed thousands of Polish officers, fighting between the Polish Resistance and Soviet partisans in Poland only intensified.

There is a simple rule to follow in life:

If your enemy loves your plan don't do it.

The Red Army loved the Warsaw Uprising.

Their enemies, the AK, and the German army were killing each other while the Soviets were taking a rest and laughing their asses off.

The Red Army loved the Warsaw Uprising.

Europe's founding myth, the original stand of Europeans against Asians, is the battle of Thermopylae. A stand that failed. Still worth standing, even in failure. Still influential on our identity.
So the end result isn't what determines if it was worth to fight. If you fight for a good cause, its worth to fight, win or lose. That's the moral high ground.
And even in utilitarian, consequentialist terms, losing a fight can help establish deterrence. Fighting the bully and losing still lets the bully know, there's no free lunch here. He'll have to fight for it. So he'll probably look elsewhere next time.

...where 200,000 Poles are buried.

You are a Polak, therefore, an idiot. On the plus side, you and others like you are the poison pill Russia is not interested in swallowing. There is safety in being a dumb Polak.

If you fight for a good cause, its worth to fight, win or lose

Thank you for confirming my conclusion above.

BTW, the fight in Ukraine is "a good cause", right? So why aren't you there? Not good enough for you?

An Israeli - A Jew who loves his AR-15.

As opposed to the Jews who don't. They would rather die than have one. See Pic 3. Disgusting doesn't describe it...

The question of the year is how guys as ugly as those in Pic 3 produce women like the one below. Or do they?

Exactly. That is one of a few reasons we don`t like Soviets in Poland. Poles and Polesses threw off the Soviet yoke in 1989 and have been happy with it. Contrary to modern Russia where Soviet times are recalled with sick nostalgia.

Would say the 13 colonies did a stupid thing by breaking away from the British Empire?

No.

Their objectives were achievable. AK's objectives were not.

Poles threw off nothing. The USSR ceased to exist.

Unfortunately, no one in the world distinguishes between these uprisings and this will probably never change.

It is communists` fault - they didn`t want to propagate the Rising which was anti Soviet, too. That is why, the communist governments didn`t insist on Germans to prosecute certain war criminals who ordered the massacres of civilians in Warsaw but later led a happy life in post war Germany.

Maybe, but even Willy Brandt knelt under the monument of the Ghetto Uprising and not in front of the monument of the Warsaw Uprising.

For a very practical reason - there wasn`t one at the time. Why? See my post above. :):)

So it depends on the result? So, Confederacy definately did the stupid thing by trying to break away from the Union - because after the defeat the South not only had to abandon slavery anyway, but also suffered lots of death and destruction as a result?
The modern Bulgarian founding myth is the April Uprising, which failed. A small scale affair, middle class youths with their personal guns, capturing police stations and declaring independence. Everyone involved was killed. Still worth doing. Everything that followed, started there.
Or the Winter War, where Fins fought, and lost. Still worth doing, and still the glue that holds that country together, and what foreigners recognize in the Fins as a people and a nation.
I see you too would've surrendered France when the Germans got near Paris, to avoid damage to the city.
And Poland disappeared from the map, to reappear how many years later? Fighting a lost struggle, that has been lost for over a century. Come on.

I never volunteered to be a glue. I have one life to live, to provide for, and to protect my family. Period.

All else can go to hell...

You want to die for your country? Go ahead...We will make a movie...

Once up there, ask 200,000 Poles who died for shlt if they still feel it was worth it.

niga wtf even
niga the actual Warsaw uprising's (and AK's general military operation in Poland at the time) purpose was exactly to wrestle control from the Germans in Poland and make sure the Soviets wouldn't claim control over the clay through "liberation"

but why am i even trying to talk to Novichok again

So, you are a "Surrender Monkey"!

Rich would disagree.

He would, because he is a weak "Surrender Monkey" that values his life above freedom for his family.

Paris is the way it is because the French made a spreadsheet, entered all kinds of numbers, and concluded that fighting Germans was pointless.
that values his life above freedom for his family.

Fvck off, you POS. Next time read my posts slowly.
