News / Polish LGBT activists perform tribute to George Michael [38]

From

Who cares? By the way I hope they 'preformance' will be keep out of the public space.

the most backwards laws in Europe concerning gay rights,

That is BS. Gays in Poland are treated like anybody else. No prvilages true but that is a good thing.

hatred towards LGBT citizens

There is no LGBT citizens, only a commie activists that happened to like D or V.
They brazen attack on the general populace in demanding of a special treatment and priviliges. Caused general backlash but not against gays but commie activists

Like Biedron do Biedronki. Funny!.

History / Wartime Rescue of Jews by the Polish Catholic Clergy. The Testimony of Survivors. [22]

Merged:

"The Polish nation as a whole acted heroically in their attitude towards the Jews".



The Jewish writer David Klin, who was a liaison officer between the Home Army and the Zegota during the war, described to the Polish columnists Andrzej Chciuk his speech delivered at one of his meetings in Israel. When he said that 'the Polish nation as a whole acted heroically in their attitude towards the Jews' he was immediately shouted down that it was not true. Klin answered, 'I know it is true because I was there.'

History / Polish hero discovers Jewish roots [25]

Quite. In bigger cities this is very much a thing.

Are you talking about so called oriental look? Like Chazars, Tatars, Karims, turkmens, turkish people and whatnot? Make sure you don't add to the list Armenians and Georgian. The answer is simple - geography and history. To pressume that all those people must have Jewish roots is either ignorant or racist. Take your pick.

History / Polish hero discovers Jewish roots [25]

n what way?

Well, you should know from all the people. If i would say that Michnik is an anti-polish Jew and a hypocrite you would call me a racist. Its only fair that someone looking into another person 'roots' for no good reason should be called racist too.

Peronally I don't care. I just don't see why a distant relation to some or other enthnicity has any import at all. Unless you're a crypto-racist.

Then why are there so many Jewish looking people running around in Poland?

What it mean 'Jewish looking'? There is no Jewish DNA.

History / Polish hero discovers Jewish roots [25]

Why is defending Jews "racist", while defending Christians isn't.

Talking about Jewish 'roots' is kind of racist. At least it should be if you're a progressive.

Very hard to see how celebrating a Polish hero is racist.

No, delpian is.

Well I have the idea that Pole and Jew were never completely discrete categories (

You mean you have no idea.

Oh he is respected. All that hate campaign against him is a homage to that fact.

Or even the population as a whole

WSI people and political opponents work hand in hand to make him into a 'weird' figure in the eyes of the populace. I grant you that. He has his quirks to be sure. Make no mistake although they pretend to laugh at him they're sacred of him, and for a good reason too. He is efficient, more so that all other L&J ministers put together.

Noted anti-semite Macierewicz

He is doing a very good job as a defence minster. One of the best minsters in the government.

I think its reasonable to expect people to be qualified to do the job that they are getting paid for.

Like Kopacz, Semoniak, Sienkiewicz, Sikorski? pathetic quip.. lol!

You must have been loosing a lot in translation (rim shot).

PiS is essentially PRL

Excuse me maf, do you remember ..have you experienced PRL? If not ....are you repeating what you have heard?
---
Are you familiar with systems in Germany or France? I advice you to look beyond slogans. Those countries are much more centralized and with a strong presence and direct influence of the state than Poland in the most radical dreams of JK.

Just to keep things in perspective.
--
In you three bullet point there is nothing new. The only difference is that instead progressive ideology, patriotic model is being postulated by PiS due to strong pressure from a large chunk of the populace.

--

Add to that accountability to the people

Are you sure that you understand what that word mean? For the last 30 years no high ranking politician or other high profile individuals with connection had been faced with accountability, regardless of the fact many deserved to be handed or locked behind the bars. So in this context taking about JK is nothing but a pointless jab at JK.

Any more HS?

I'm sure you don't. I can live with that.

Not the point. I'm baffled by the fact that an American who is not a commie can in all seriousness support PO over PiS.

and PO is far less rooted in PRL organizational culture than is PiS).

Strange you would think that. They're commies as they come. Rooted in the WSI - Soviet's political police culture.

Since when are artists supposed to suck up to the government?

Since they have been financed by the taxpayers money. Those who do not didn't or never will partake in that 'process' can do whatever they want. Thing is some 'artist' get so used to governmental grants to function in their 'private' capacity that they brazenly expected PiS to continue with the racket.

I don't think I like you maf. You're not a commie and not a stupid fellow and yet you steadily support the worse option for Poland i.e. PO and other soviets. Not nice.

UK, Ireland / Why Polish girls working in UK as escort more than other Eastern European girls [89]

to majority polish males like to get drunk and be a nuisance to the society specially to the A&E ward..

Really? Polish? You forgot that in the age of the Internet literate user can find a relevant info in no time at all. I wonder would you dare to came back here and repeat it? Especially if you are an English male in his 20'.

As to Polish women - I~ guess due to the high percentage of pretty girls.

Unless you want to tell us about your knowledge of an order

I would love to but I can't.

Isn't that more reason to keep with civilian LOT-operated planes?

I have no opinion.

He's not an obscure dude

Whatever man. Who cares? I'm sure Macierewicz is calling shots here and that dude is only spinning tales.

Why wasn't there a fair and open tender for those VIP planes?

Maybe bc those tenders in Poland are neither open or fair, so why bother?.

Why are you trying to defend this situation?

I don't, I see it in the context. In the context of it that French deal was shady and not in Poland interests - overpriced supposed to sweeten French after they have been forced not to sell some warship to Russia. (they sold them anyway through Egypt).

an ex-commie's involvement

You and I differ in a view on who is or who isn't a 'commie'. Anyhow in this case it really doesn't matter.

Where are our helicopters?

That takes times. I'm sure helicopters are on the way. Don't panic.

Why did Poland order VIP planes rather than helicopters?

Hmm in the light of Smolensk and other accidents that was long time coming.

Most importantly, why did ex-PZPR member and Head of the Smolensk Sub-Commission Wacław Berczyński vanish to the USA

I don't know and frankly I think it is secondary. PiS is sucking American dick and most likely will pay a lot of money for American stuff including Helicopter regardless of some obscure dude or what he claims.
