History / Are Poles happy with the current Polish borders? [134]

Lwów and Grodno were turned into dumps by our eastern neighbours, you're calling for Poland to give away regions it rebuilt for the past 65 years in exchange for dilapidated dumps that our former eastern provinces became in the past half century? Thats just silly.

Not if your heart is innit....
You would do so gladly! :)

Borders are a thing of the past anyhow (at least between us)

Life / I saw Polish nationalism today [263]

Well yes, but let's not forget that they razed Carthage to the ground!

See...but when Germans do raze something into the ground it's a bad thing! No fair!!! *grumble*

I agree with that...the context is everything!

3000 year old germanic runes are just that, part of my heritage but when I additionally would run around as skinhead, showing the Hitlergruß then it is Nazi and I can't blame someone for thinking that...that is part of my heritage too, I can't change that.

(I still wonder what Poles get out of it...on the other hand russian neo-nazis are the same...)

Until then, they should remember that beneficiis enim humana vita constat et concordia

Yeah...surely....during breaks in conquering, exploiting and enslaving other peoples....

Usually, I am staunchly against shooting people as if they were rabid dogs, but for those
sickf*cks I would make an exception.

News / Polish Lithuanian Diplomatic War? At last. [534]

Did someone else post the economist article on polish/lithuanian ******** already?

Poland, Lithuania, spiralling downwards

economist/blogs/easternapproaches/2010/10/polish-lithuanian_theatre_absurd

POLAND'S row with Lithuania rivals the Macedonian-Greek "name" row for intensity of emotion and bafflingness to outsiders. A recent blog post on this has attracted more than 200 comments, which are worth reading if only to see the gulf between the two sides. In short, Poland thinks that it has done a great deal for Lithuania in recent years, and its good will has been met with rebuffs and duplicity, particularly in the treatment of the Polish minority there, and also in the obstacles created for the country's biggest foreign investor, PKN Orlen, which owns the loss-making Mažeikiai oil refinery.

Yeah...looks like it! :)

Hopefully :)

I meaned "cleared up" between Lithuania and Poland, not being rude to my fav polish poster! ;)
Because as I say if Lithuania has accept that then they HAVE TO follow EU law...not their choice anymore and Poland can go to court over that and will win!

We don't want our governments
to act like skinheads, now do we? :)

Never!

Does Poland deny German minority any rights guaranteed to them by bilateral deals and EU laws?

Well...admittedly I'm no expert at polish-lithuanian history but here the question also stands if Poles are an autochthone minority in Lithuania and hence deserving minority rights. We discussed the differences with the german and polish minorities in Germany and Poland already. Minority is NOT minority.

Is that cleared up?
Because of the polish minority falls under the EU right than Lithuania will have to follow and any polish walk to the EU court will be successful.

Are there any movements from Warsaw?

What are we even talking about him.

Nun ja...this thread is 10 pages long already and yes, these things have been mentioned and belong to the overall poisoned relationship...

50 long decades would be 500 years - you are exaggerating a bit today ;)

Erm....math had never be my strength!

So don't tell me it's exactly the same situation.

I'm not telling anything....but I can't help comparing the polish-lithuanian arguments with the polish-german ones...

For me the Poles seem to play the same role to the Lithuanians (and the Ukrainians before that) as the Germans do to Poles....and Poland tries to justify it's actions as Germans (me) do....till to the somewhat arrogant position of the allegedly stronger and more mature civilization looking down on the "eastern peasants" and the modern revanchists who "want back what was stolen from them".

You just has to exchange the nationalities sometimes and it's eerie....

News / Polish Lithuanian Diplomatic War? At last. [534]

only those who wanted to leave did.

What do you think made them "want to leave"? Polonization was enforced and even their existence was denied by the government.

....Practically all through the years until the Polish communist regime was ousted, the existence of Germans remaining in Poland was denied. Polish prime minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki, in office 1989-91, was the first to recognize the German minority officially..

News / Polish Lithuanian Diplomatic War? At last. [534]

Well...they did exactly that till the early 90's...during nearly 50 long decades, driving the majority of them out already, millions left for Germany. Even denying their existence at all.

What more can you do?

Genealogy / Polish DNA? Poles have the most genes in a group includes Balts, Macedonians and Greeks. [264]

that what is called Swabia today, back in time, was heartland of Northern Danubian Proto Slavic branch

Wishful thinking! You are a dreamer Crowie...I can't blame you for wanting to belong to the titanic germanic tribes family...who wouldn't...

...but it looks abit pathetic for someone who is allegedly "proud to be a Slav", ya know....

so with a many Slavic nations but they all differ big time, do not copy nationalistic propaganda here please :)

Which would be?

Yeah...when the historical facts are uncomfortably one is open for every crooked explanation!
Sorry to burst your wishful bubble, just look at the map by Ptolemy again.
He knows exactly to differ between the Germanics and the Slavs...there is a clear drawn border right on the map to the eastern Sarmatians!

There wouldn't be any if they would be all the same to him.

Not to mention that he was an Egyptian not a Roman, or that you think the Romans quite stupid not knowing about the many people in an outside of their empire.

Maybe they didn't know so much about the Slavs but they for sure did know their Germans, being at war and trading with them for centuries already...

And if Ptolemy is not enough for you, Pliny the Elder and also Tacitus know to differ between Germanics and Slavs already.

Some sciencetists think that Suebi-Svevi are just Slavs , look on the name.

I hope you don't use the same "scientific" resources as Crow because mainstream history is clear about the Suebi as a germanic tribe:

/wiki/Suebi

...
The Suebi or Suevi (from Proto-Germanic *swēbaz based on the Proto-Germanic root *swē- meaning "one's own" people,[1] from an Indo-European root *swe-,[2] the third person reflexive pronoun) were a group of Germanic peoples[3] who were first mentioned by Julius Caesar in connection with Ariovistus' campaign...

What next? Ariovistus a Slav too???
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariovistus

Ariovistus was a leader of the Suebi and other allied Germanic peoples in the second quarter of the 1st century BC. He and his followers took part in a war in Gaul, assisting the Arverni and Sequani to defeat their rivals the Aedui, after which they settled in large numbers in conquered Gallic territory in the Alsace region.

Ariovistus

The Suebians left their traces even today: /wiki/Swabia

...
2000 years ago, the Suebi or Suevi were an Elbe Germanic tribe whose origin was near the Baltic Sea, which was thus known to the Romans as the Mare Suebicum (today, the term "Swabian Sea" is applied to Lake Constance). They migrated to the southwest, becoming part of the Alamannic confederacy.
...
Swabia (sometimes Suabia or Svebia) (German: Schwaben, also Schwabenland or Ländle) is a cultural, historic and linguistic region in Germany.

What is it with you guys...is your own history not enough for you now you need to steal from others???

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1090]

There can only one country occupy the central spot and that is Germany, sorry!
Everything east of us is eastern Europe and everything west of us is western Europe.

So!

USA, Canada / Polack/American Polonia/Plastic Pole "culture" [568]

It's a form of snobbery, I think. It's ridiculous when you look at American history - it's got a rich, deep history - they really, really do not need to call themselves anything but American.

Well...I don't believe that.
It's more about roots...black Americans for example are actually supported finding their "roots"...the same with the native Americans...movies are made about it, documentaries...school etc.

To know where one hails from is necessary...

It's like the old history saying that one needs to know the history or is doomed to repeat it. Knowing ones own family heritage is equally important.

People who dismiss this mostly don't have any or it's to muddled and messed up.

If Boehner's influence on politics is seen as a German American influence on America, I wouldn't mind seeing more German American influence asserted in the US.

Well...I'm sure he is a patriotic Ami...nobody expects from German-Amis to put the old Fatherland first, they never did.
(Contrary to modern immigrants into Europe)

Actually I think German-Amis are exceptionally immigrants...an asset to their new countries..mostly...

Career

Boehner was born to a German Catholic family in Cincinnati; he was second among 12 children....

If anything it shows Poles are humble enough to give another nation credit which they felt it deserved and that maybe the Polish people themselves didn't always have the answers to everything.

Well...yeah...a national hymn has commonly a national theme...because beside the flag it is the symbol to rally under.
Revering to a foreign power hungry, agressive dictator in a hymn could be seen as kind of bowing of a meek colony does to their imperial master.
