@dolnoslask

I respect your opinion so will open myself more to Crow's posts.

@crow

You obviously know your Slav history.
Not so sure of your predictions of Slav future.....
But Dolno and a few others seem to hold you in good regard so that is good enough for me,for now...
Post away Crow!

@Dolno
At first I was shocked by Crow's posts.....then I warmed to him a bit.....but the sheer reperetniveness of his posts
makes me think of him as a troll....

Great post Dolno.
My family was also from Kresy and spent time in a Siberian "holiday camp",my grandmother died there.
Despite The Jews heavy collaboration with the Russians I hold nothing against Jews in general.
Quite the reverse,I support Israel.
And yet still idiotic posts from people like Lyzko keep coming......
That is the problem wIth the internet.
Any idiot can post.

When did Serbs help Poles?

You dare to call Poles morons on a Polish forum?
Go and hang your head in shame.....

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

I very much agree with the Polish affinity to Czechs and Slowaks.
I have several Slowak friends and they understand Polish easily.
Our countries have so much in common too, on so many different levels.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

You are right.
Serbs just want to commit genocide in Kosovo.
And if the Russians are stupid enough to help them,which I doubt,WW3 will be close.....
If The Serbs go it alone,they are finished as a nation.

I can tell you are one of the few sensible posters on this forum.
I have agreed with all your posts that I have read.
Keep up the fight against the ignorant and those with an agenda!
It is as you say,most posters on here do not seem to be Polish,which is a shame.

@Lyzko
Your ignorance is astounding.......
Please read some books instead of learning from the internet.
Please make sure all the books are written by Poles who lived through WW2 in Poland.
Pick 50% Jewish writers and 50% Catholic writers.
Then you will know the truth......
Until then,please stop making your ignorant,offensive posts.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

I really can't understand why people keep posting this rubbish.
1.Poles will never trust Russians.With very good reasons.Therefore a Russo-Polski unity can be forgotten.
2.Poles and everyone with the possible exception of Russia will not help Serbs retake Kosovo.
3.Poles have always regarded themselves as "Central European" and not "Eastern European" like our fellow Slavs.
We have always leant more to the West in cultural,artistic and other ways.

Forget this Slav union.It is never going to happen!

Dolno,I was referring to Dirks post about Catholic and Jewish Poles.
No WW3 coming between Poland and Israel......

Absolutely agree with Dirk(Adrian).
Time to move on.

Just watch the Spzilman video that kaprys posted and shut up till you have seen it.
You are starting to annoy me with your narrowmindedness.

Thanks kaprys,,the video was extremely enlightening.

Absolutely Poland needs to defend against Russia.
Poland only has one enemy now.
Russia.

News / Israel opposing potential new Polish law to criminalise term 'Polish death camps' [1539]

The fact is that most Poles behaved admirably during the war.Many going even too far.
The repercussions to a Poles family for helping Jews was worse than in any other country in Europe.
And still,many Poles took that risk and helped Jews....
There were some bad Poles.
There were some bad Jews.
There were many bad Germans and Russians.
Many Polish Jews did join the Polish army later and fought bravely.
I have never heard any stories of Jews helping Poles though.
But many of the reverse when some Jews conspired with The Russians against Poles.

It's true.The left are the new fascists who are trying to stifle free speech from anyone they disagree with.
It's ridiculous and dangerous.Especially in universities.
If people have what you think are wrong or abhorrent views surely you would want to debate with them to at least show others that they are wrong.

You go to university to broaden your mind,not to narrow it.

Interesting stuff but in my experience Poles prefer Slowaks over Czechs.
And what happened to Hungarians here?
Yeah,we don't like Muslims,Gypsies and Russians.

Wielkipolak
One hundred percent correct.

The situation in Poland at the time was desperate for Poles and Jews alike.
To apportion blame on one side more than the other is just wrong.
As in all walks of life,there are good people and bad people.
Some of the bad ones were despicable and some of the good ones were brave beyond comprehension.
Poles and Jews alike.
This is a complex history for many reasons.
But to say that Poles were somehow more guilty than Jews is ridiculous.
Poles and Jews in Poland died in equal numbers.
This is a collective historical tragedy.
We should not be bitching about who was worse or who was better.
It was the same for all Poles.
And in the end we must always remember who the truly evil ones were in this story.
And not to call them Nazis and Communists.
but by their real names.
Germans and Russians.

Thanks jon357.

So if they didn't have Granatowa Policja in this area does anyone know how it worked and what sort of "Auxiliary Policeman" he was?

News / Israel opposing potential new Polish law to criminalise term 'Polish death camps' [1539]


I didn't know that.
So what did The Germans regard his town's area as?
Did they regard it as German Ukraine?

News / Israel opposing potential new Polish law to criminalise term 'Polish death camps' [1539]

If he was Granatowa Policja (Navy Blue Police) then he is extremely unlikely to have been guilty.

This from Wikipedia;
"Scholars disagree about the degree of involvement of the Blue Police in the rounding up of Jews. Although policing inside the Warsaw Ghetto was a responsibility of the Jewish Ghetto Police, a Polish-Jewish historian Emmanuel Ringelblum, chronicler of the Warsaw Ghetto, mentioned Polish policemen carrying out extortions and beatings. The police did also take part in street roundups, but not in the killings of Jews. On June 3, 1942 during a prison execution of 110 Jews in Warsaw, members of the Blue Police stood and wept, while the Germans themselves executed the victims, after the Poles refused to obey the orders of their overseers to carry out the shooting. According to Raul Hilberg, "Of all the native police forces in occupied Eastern Europe, those of Poland were least involved in anti-Jewish actions.... They [the Polish Blue Police] could not join the Germans in major operations against Jews or Polish resistors, lest they be considered traitors by virtually every Polish onlooker." Holocaust historian Gunnar S. Paulsson agrees that the role of the Blue Police was minimal: "Keep this in mind - wrote Paulsson - the Jews in Poland were isolated in ghettos. They were rounded up by German police with the aid of Ukrainian and Baltic collaborators, and the enforced co-operation of the Jewish ghetto police, but very little participation by Polish police (mainly in the smaller centres). They were taken to killing centres staffed again by Germans, Ukrainians and Balts."

I smell a rat here.

If he was in The German army he must have been Volkedeutsch.

Sorry Crow,but the Russians have duped some of you Serbs into believing that they're your friends.
But they only remain your friends whilst you remain useful idiots helping them.
The Russian state only cares about Serbia for as long as it is a loyal dog.
If you turn against your master,he will have you put down.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

Do you really expect Poles to trust the Russian state???
Poles and Russians have a common enemy.
They are the people that rule and govern Russia.
If Russia ever discovers democracy,then maybe things might happen.

History / How much Poles trust to France? [111]

Poles hate France so much that if you drive down the eastern border of France from Calais to Mulhouse all the old mining towns are full of Polish surnames.
