I am not saying Pawian was 100% right, and I cannot forgive for those who were killed by UPA. Also, I am in no position to apologise for anything Poland did to Ukrainians in the past.
However, personally, as a private person - Kania/Torq - I hereby declare that I no longer bear a grudge against Ukraine for either their historical misconduct or present inability to admit it. I pray and hope that one day they will be able to look at history also from the Polish perspective but it is no longer a matter of personal grudge for me.
Their bravery, sacrifice and courage changed my hardened heart.
It took three and a half years because I'm one stubborn c*nt.
P.S. Also, my past assumptions about the British were unduly negative and harsher than they deserved. I have come to realise that I might well have misjudged them.
I have already explained the meaning of this word once. "Volksdeutsch" is a person of German nationality living outside Germany in areas of former German settlement. It's not me. 😱
If Alien would be and post as some Mohammed from Germany (with the same texts and him owning a german passport), would you also treat him like a "volksdeutsch"?
How would that change your perception of him and his postings? Would they change at all compared to some Dieter or Katrin?

Hmm...
That's some serious mental gymnastics right there, BB. Gimme a moment.
*thinks*
No. Somehow 'volksdeutsch' and 'Muslim' don't collocate for me.
How would that change your perception of him and his postings?
Well, I definitely wouldn't see him as a traitor of Poland who sold himself for 30 pieces of silver (or Deutsche Mark), and I wouldn't give a toss that he betrayed Iraq or Syria, so generally I would probably be more friendly predisposed towards him.
Would they change at all?
Hard to say overall. I would probably still be annoying him. A bit of fun on a Saturday afternoon.
Dieter
It depends if Dieter was more like you or more like Tacitus.
Katrin
I would try to be a gentleman... but if she was a crazy feminist I sometimes might not be 100% delicate.
Thanks for the dictionary entry, Fritz. Now go back to polishing your sandals with mustard, Hans.
:D
But to forgive the Anglos their perfidy - never.
Russia is sending drones to Poland and conducting hybrid warfare through their Belarussian allies, and Americans under Trump don't give a toss about us. We need friends and Brits and the French are the only option left for us... why do I feel this strange historic deja vu? :(
with Germany on your side NOBODY will ever conquer you again
*fingers crossed*
Unless, of course, the geniuses who rule Poland allow themselves to be provoked and attack Russia. Those F-35s, Apache choppers, and tanks are not exactly defensive weapons. Why can't we all just get along?
As was only to be expected. No surprise here. Only Retards from PO and PiS are surprised or still do not get it. When does incompetence count as sabotage and treason? ---
Brits and the French are the only option left for
Yeah, sure, I told you which countries we should build a good rapport with. I hate to repeat myself. --
At least Germany is on our side this time.
We can only count on our own forces. Germany? Will they pretend to be on our side and then, in the crucial moment, switch sides? --
The geniuses who rule Poland allow themselves to be provoked and attack Russia.
Our allies, with the US at the helm, would never allow it. They are shaking in their boots, so afraid that there will be war with Russia. Only the threat of war can make Russia take them seriously. --
I wouldn't excactly recommend anybody to go after Norway, Finland and the Netherlands at the same time cause their militaries don't mind fixing up their reputation.
Both Norwegian and Dutch Jetfighters helped defend Polish airspace. Norway has a weapon industry specialised in air missiles to sink ships. So anybody on Norways black list will have trouble with naval vessels of any sort in the Atlantic, Baltic Sea or Norwegian Sea if it wishes it.
