The letter's been replaced with a link to a website I'm not a fan of but yes, it's very worth reading.

Says it all

He hits the nail on the head.

which reminded us of the interrogations we endured at the hands of the Security Services and the debates in Communist courts.

Lech Walesa is mentioned in this interrogation scene in the film Balkan Spy where a neighbour and his brother interrogate someone they believe is a western spy.



Balkanski Špijun - Em Stranac Em Poljak.....

After Tito broke his relations with Stalin anyone found to be a Stalinist supporter would be arrested and sent to a prison camp in Goli Otok (the Barren Island) where he would be forced to do hard labor such as breaking rocks in the scorching sun.

So what?

They eat cats, is she trying to say that Walesa eats cats?

They

Yugoslavians? Who knows?

President Wałęsa reminds me of Arthur Scargill. A flawed hero. Sometimes intemperate but essentially decent and he stepped up and did his duty at the time it was needed.

Yugoslavians

Balkan people.
Sometimes intemperate

The thing is, in Poland nobody cares what he says.

Wałęsa pokonał komunizm, pokona i idiotyzm.

Nobody defeated communism. Not even the US.

Communism defeated itself - just as West is committing suicide by migrants, LGBT woke azzholes, and the greens.

China is "communist". Ready to defeat them, little naive boy?

It was a mistake of Wałęsa to write this letter.

Being a Poish moron is in the moron's DNA. If it feels good, do it. Consequences? What's that...

That's why Polaks can't figure out why Trump doesn't call Putin names. So let me help you. azzholes...

Trump doesn't call Putin names the way the senile imbecile before him used to because there is no upside to it.

Duh!!!!

Because I left.

Neither of them want you. You are too emotional, stupid, or both.

First, make sure that every RR station has a john with toilet paper, soap, warm water, and towels.

scene in the film Balkan Spy where

Made in 1983 aka communist times so it is worthless if it deals with spy contexts.

Walesa is only Polish speaking.

Exactly! A true Polish patriot who never wasted his precious time to learn a foreign language coz he never planned emigration like Ironside or Ptak for better life in America.

Ironside or Ptak for better life in America.

Iron, are you in the US?

No more. He returned from 30 years` emigration about 3 years ago and is living off his US or Canadian pension now .

That explains why Iron is smarter than you and other Euros.
pawian  226 | 27817
9 Mar 2025   #50
why Iron is

Not really. If he was smart, he wouldn`t have had to leave Poland for the US. He did coz the US needed his cheap labour without brains.

In the US, garbage pickers make more than doctors in Poland.

make more

You are mentally fixed on communist times while today doctors make more than you have ever made in the US.

Quoting:

In Poland, the average monthly salary for a medical doctor is around PLN 5,200, with potential for additional income through bonuses and overtime.

...and bribes...

If my average monthly salary here was 5200 dollars I would shoot myself. It's higher than that when I am retired.
pawian  226 | 27817

was 5200 dollars I would shoot myself

With joy, of course. Cos it was much lower. Stop daydreaming. You were s specialist supervisor of an assembly line and nothing more - a little more than a blue collar worker.
