Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

Really? How come I knew him?

You probably follow youtuber influencers and similar individuals of a certain political persuasion.

Most people are too busy for stuff like that.

Most Poles have no idea who he was

Most people in Poland and the rest of the western world had no idea at all until this morning. Why would they? All I knew was that he was one guy among many with a youtube channel.

Who has been cheering this guys death on this forum

I can't see any. Can you?

almost all Poles support the gun control that prevents such incidents here.

Thank God for that. Europe doesn't want the shootings that are sadly all too common over there. We forget that they weren't only kids in a school, worshippers in a black led church, clubgoers at a Miami disco or youtubers at a college event; they were people whose families have been torn apart.

News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [252]

As I said before, Poland is by and large a victim of her own success: a G20 economy, ever increasing wages, and practically zero unemployment make military jobs quite unattractive to most men with brains and balls.

There's still a very large and skillful military, very good training and the tragic history of Poland and the rich history of its army are a strength.

Also, the army is full of slightly retarded troglodytes who are there only because their dad or uncle was/is in the service.

When I was a military contractor many years ago, there were certainly things that shocked me among some of the older officers, not least the vodka at 9am and some things best not mentioned, sometimes involving sex or money, however there were also some exceptionally good people. You shouldn't worry too much.

News / The most pro-Russian Polish politicians [14]

C is half dead and a clown.

B maybe maybe

A Probably yes.

There was another one, slightly known to me personally and strongly disliked by me (and vice versa, at least he always looked at us both suspiciously, trying to weigh stuff up) however he's now fallen into the obscurity he deserves. There was a suggestion in the media (maybe realistic, maybe exaggerated) that he is, was or might potentially be a r*SSian agent, however he can do no harm and the Polish intelligence services are competent, professional, know their job very well and care about Poland which they swear to protect. That guy is not now in the news.

They're getting closer to that every day.

Fortunately the mid terms and the next presidential election will calm things down.

And meanwhile, they'll keep on shooting each other, like that YouTube guy yesterday.

Better to stick some allspice in the bottle for a few days. The flavour takes far quicker than juniper and it has a Christmassy taste.

But dilute vodka? Never.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 25 [1150]

How is this non-relevant?
Ukraine possesses eye-watering electronic capabilities - far

More obfuscation, straight out of the Putler playbook.

r*SSia did this, and there is no credible doubt. They did this for several reasons:

First: To test NATO's red lines and Trup's response.

Second: To create an an atmosphere of fear in Central Europe. Terror and the threat of war always breed political extremism. Extreme political parties, who openly or covertly sympathise with m*sc*w, could potentially gain an opportunity to strengthen their positions.

Third: The Kremlin hopes that the more Europeans discuss the need to strengthen their own armies and develop defence industry, the louder the appeasing voices calling to reduce aid to Ukraine will become.

Fourth: To attempt to fuel anti-Ukrainian sentiment. The Kremlin wants Ukrainians to be seen as a burden, not as allies in the fight against r*SSian aggression.

Finally: To prepare for larger-scale aggressive actions. In m*sc*w or in whichever of his several bunkers Putler is currently hiding,, scenarios for the next stage of the war are likely being calculated based on NATO's and Trump's' reactions. If NATO's response to the strike on Poland proves weak, Putler will see it as an invitation.

This is exactly how Nazi Germany, step by step, tested the world's readiness to respond - first in the Rhineland, then in the Sudetenland, then in Prague. Each time the free world convinced itself that "this is not yet war," that "this can still be endured". Putler wants appeasers. The appeasers must not prevail.

It all stinks

Of Lenin's mouldy corpse.

Just like they did with the Pearl Harbour, 9/11 and others.

Surely you aren't trying to suggest that they were 'false flag' operations?

That is scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Well.. what if the US actually wants to go ahead with the

They don't get to choose.

But the rocket that killed two farmers in Przewodów was Ukrainian after all and not Russian as everyone thought at first.

r*SSia was however entirely to blame.

As with this.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 25 [1150]

Less than an hour later a fighter jet shot down the drone and the debris hit their house while the man was watching news on TV about drones flying into Poland

That's quite postmodern really.

Follow the money.

If you're trying to obfuscate by suggesting this is some sort of 'false flag', you won't succeed.

Ukraine have always behaved impeccably since the illegal and unprovoked invasion.

r**SSia however have carried out all sorts of confirmed provocations, fires, attacks, murders.

Don't try and pull the wool over people's eyes.

denies

They always do.

Even when they're caught red handed they deny and try to confuse.

it's the potato fuhrer

Is stupid, yet not so stupid as to launch UAVs into Polish and NATO airspace without the say so of his putrid boss.

You would be punishing those who don't necessarily agree with the putinist government, as well as their children who are in Polish education system.

They can always go to Ukraine, or perhaps Estonia, Latvia or Lithuania.

And those are not RuSSian oligarchs, so I don't see why Kremlin would care.

It's a gesture.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 25 [1150]

It's horrific that they did that and no amount of orc bluster suggesting that it was Belarus or whoever will alter the fact that Putler ordered this. It's an appalling crime.

My grandma could have not survived such damage like the one that happened to that house in Wyryki :( Thank God noone got killed or injured:

Nor could my mum if her living room collapsed like that. Her grandparents were both murdered in the WW2 blitzkrieg due to fascist bombs.

Thank God nobody was killed in Wyriki this time.

This was an escalation, and the next attack is sadly likely to be worse.

A lot in the media about the USA wanting to dominate AI with ChatGOT and others.

Better than China, however could Poland and Europe develop a better one?

I'd be happier to see 30%. For health reasons since costs of treatment are paid by everyone.

And it's all watered down anyway. Schweppes or Britvic could make a slightly more concentrated slimline tonic.

One thing puzzles me though. What the hell is 0% Gin. Is it just water with juniper in? Why bother with ir?

Anywhere near Tricity perhaps?

It's a nice place though North Yorkshire beckons. Depends on two people though not one and the times for both being right and both wanting it rather than just going along with it, The other party favours Spain or Portugal.
