History / What do Poles owe to Germans? [451]

the legitimacy of the Communist government in legal theory.

No you don't, you are sweet-talking about legitimacy of the Communist emerge. The only acts of the Communist regime which are legal are those which Polish government choose to recognize as legal and binding,

Yes, they used the 1921 Constitution and amended (and then replaced it) with something that suited them, but it was all done in accordance with the law.

I think that your confusing come for the fact that you constructed artificial barrier between law and reality or morality. That could be all well if you were debating some theoretical legal twists but you don't.

You are trying to debate one part of the whole, it doesn't make any sense legal or otherwise.

How do you think Poland survived after '89??

I wonder how you survived, the facts you can type that a wonder.
quote=Polson]Well, they participated in the development of such (nice) cities as Wrocław. And Gdańsk, a place I like, for instance ;)
[/quote]
well, places that had to be rebuild by Poles. Not to mention that they take whole credit for destruction such vibrant city like Warsaw and countless towns and villages.

TheOther:
they share a lot of their history

people from Poland and Germany were intermixed for centuries but sharing a lot of history is a cliché if I ever sow one.

The Polish state had more or less ceased to exist,

Ah! Now it became clear where do you inspiration and confusion come form.

You follow claims of aggressor and occupiers. Well Poles, reality and a their legal theory show you a big middle finger to your claim shared by the Nazis and Communist theoretician . You are proudly continuing their line.

History / Polish military uniforms - collar markings [74]

Hey Dan!
There were two different collar markings. Single one for privates and under-officers and double for officers.

I'm not 100% sure but they were derived from historical Polish uniforms. Polish Legions during WWI had such marking on collar - it was called legion wezyk.

Thanks

OK!
I checked it!
It seems that Polish Legions (WWI volunteers mostly form Russian Poland, who were fighting for Austria-Hungary) used that marking on the collar for all which was traditional used for Generals in the Polish Army.

Called Legion's wavy line was transferred to the Polish Army after 1918.

Different position is so called general's cut:

History / Polish military uniforms [57]

Not a single part of that is true.

Single what is not true?
In English historiography there is a sharp divide between those who claim that conquest by the Normans bought revolutionary changes to Anglo-Saxon England and those that claim that their impact was only minimal.

Alas my claim could be and well is debatable. Under no circumstances can be described as no true at all.

Genealogy / Is your line of the Polish family noble? [74]

my mother is linked to the noble potocki family,

So what? considering that at onetime 10% of Poland population were nobles, it would means that nowadays at least 50% or Poles have one or other grandparent from the noble lineage.

Where to go? It depended whether you have the dough to burn or not.

Then, who do you think the Normans wer?

eh? The Normans were the guys who conquered Anglo-Saxons, and molded it into entity that become England, They merged into background, it took about 300 years.

What remain is a lot of French words in the English vocabulary.
Also you have a pig or a hog but then you eat pork french porc.

They are definitely founding fathers of the English Political and social system which evolved on the ground plow and sow by the revolutionary changes and institutions introduced by the Normans to the Anglo-Saxon subsoil.

I am sure that if you had lived at the time, you would heavily critisize him for his calls for peace and moderation, addressed to the opposition

How do you know? Indeed I think that moderation was a blunder and the phish.
Soviet agent?No just failure, in comparison to Sapieha,Wyszynski and Wojtyła.
Anti-Soviets you mean.

Cardinal of Poland, Józef Glemp, has died aged 83. He was representing the Church during the stormy years of change.
Cardinal Jozef Glemp was Poland's Roman Catholic Primate during a decade of political turmoil, and often found himself caught in the crossfire between the Communist authorities and the trade union Solidarity.

News / Why mustn`t we allow PiS to rule Poland again? [45]

If you mean PiS, then forget it. They are as corrupted as others but they pretend to be clean. It only makes their moral degradation even greater.

What are you talking about? The article is fool of holes, generalization and stipulation. In the end they got nothing. I would like to know why? Would that be purely political decision?

Is that not clear that development of the geothermal energy in Poland is in the interest of the country?
