Tell that to those widows and or family members...STRAIGHT TO THEIR SEETHING FACES!! Then watch as they beat you black and blue.

I simply mean that revenge bombing such as Dresden and the like won't bring back Hitler's victims! Millions of German innocents lost their lives too. Why should they have paid for Nazi crimes?

As to the last half of your post just now, I can agree in part.

Tito was an anti-Nazi, though not a Judeophile!

Polish pride? Szopen, for starters:-)

However Marshal Josip Broz aka Títo, did a great deal to buck that regretable trend.

I missed nothing my good man!There were gung-ho Browns and hard line Reds, extremists, just like anywhere.

Not all Germans were Nazís any more than not all Russians were Commies:-)

There was also plenty of Tsarist Era anti-Semitism to go around such as Count Vyacheslav von Plehve, so don't please let's single out Poland! And then there was the Ukrainian nationalist Petlura.

You mean like AH's propaganda about the Jews? Hitler referred to Poles along other Slavs as "subhumans", and that's in Mein Kampf! This is the truth.

UK, Ireland / The best way for a Polish person to learn English? [46]

G&S on the legitimate London stage is an excellent way to hear the highest of RP known to the English-speaking world:-)

Moreover, the English isn't even taught by Anglo-Saxon native speakers!

You actually have a point. It cuts both ways too. Anglos wanting to learn a foreign language abroad in recent years (pre-Covid, of course) are often met with a slew of well-intentioned folks eager to barrage them with broken English while usually unwilling to concede to the simple fact that plenty of Anglophones might know their language more competently than the foreigner knows English:-)

Anybody with close caption capabilities on their phone or home PC can readily turn on or off the English captions at the bottom of the screen. This technique works for all languages.

People used to learn English through Spotlight English or SKY-Channel.

The challenges for a random Polish learner are naturally entirely different from those of a random English learner! For one thing, Polish remains by in large vastly unfamiliar to native Anglophones save those of Polish background, they simply don't bother studying any foreign language except for absolute language requirememts e.g. highschool Spanish. Poles on the other hand are obligated to study English, force fed, just as the whole world is obligated to lear basic arithmetic, regardless whether they've a speck of talent for it or not:-) No foreigner is legally required to study Polish.

Anything's got to be better than Pimsleur, Berlitz or Rosetta Stone.

Maybe, Mr. Grunvald. A more fitting expression might have been "an act of WANTON violence.."

Yep, clear language interference, that's for sure. How does the English word "meaningless" describe Katyn?? A literal translation from the Romanian, perhaps?
