History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


This example, with its obnoxiously feigned "mistake", in no way invalidates what Yerrick has said about the special privileges granted to Polish Jewry relative to those of the Polish peasantry. Indeed residency restrictions were also enforced by Jews against Gentiles in Poland. The documentary Stetl, about the history of the town of Bransk, revealed that Polish Gentiles had to receive special permission from the Jewish authorities in Bransk before being allowed to move into the center of that the town.

News / Czechs most liked by Poles! [35]

Hungarians are indeed from Asia. They arrived in Europe over a thousand years ago.
"Bohunk" is an American slang term for Central and Eastern European immigrants that was coined during the late 19th Century when they started arriving in the USA in large numbers. It is compounded from the words "Bohemian" and "Hungarian" but it was used to denote Poles and others too. In a testament to the virility of the Magyar and Slavic peoples this term was eventually shortened to become the word "hunk".

[************************** seems to know where exactly this brotherhood has come from, but somehow we know it exists [/quote]
One theory regarding this national fraternity is that the Hungarians, like the Poles, had, in comparison to other European nations, a huge percentage of their populace classified as members of the nobility. So too the Hungarians, like the Poles, granted their nobles far reaching political rights which contrasted greatly with the rest of Europe which tended towards far more autocratic political structures. These similarites may be seen as reflecting similiar national dispositions betwixt Hungarians and Poles thus acounting for the feeling of brotherhood.

Food / What is your favorite Polish Vodka? [653]



I was going to answer you, kondzior, but, before I could do so, the thread you started was......


into this one, which is a thread about only Polish vodka. (You see 1.75 liter bottles of Svedka brand vodka are one sale here in Southern California and thus lately almost every home I've visited has poured it for me quite liberally. I was even going to make a Polish history reference about being "deluged" ((as Svedka is distilled in Sweden)) but, alas, someone has moved your OP here.)

History / Poland's undying debt to Polonia [76]


But book learning is what a rustic lacks.
Why don't you answer the questions that Gregorz posed to you and that I reposted above? I suspect it is because you know that your position is absurd. It is quite possible, dare I say probable, that educated Polonians living abroad may be better informed about the nature of Polish history, and Polish culture, than some semi-educated foreigners living in Poland and teaching English. The latter may know more about the current weather in Poland and but so what?

History / Poland's undying debt to Polonia [76]

So, P3undone and 4 eigner, you two would answer yes to the following two questions Gregorz posed, or do "nuances" not include economics and foriegn policy? And if not what do they include and why are they important? Aren't you just mired in some romantic notion of "wisdom" being imparted from merely being present specific geographical locations?


What are your answers? Are you going to disparage book learnin' like some quaint rustics?

History / Poland's undying debt to Polonia [76]

P3undone,you are missing Grzegorz's point. He is pointing out the fact that an educated person that has studied a country's culture, history, government, etc. may actually be more informed regarding said country than some lesser educated people, even if the former isn't in said country and the latter are. You really should read his post more closely, it is quite well explained therein. You should also heed his admonition and stop fawning over presumptuous "experts" based merely upon their residency in Poland.

History / Lusatia allied with Poland? [19]

No, German culture has survived as well as it could. It was good to see Poles getting land from Germans rather than the other way around. It is called payback and it can be a ***** if you used to be the oppressor. Go cry in your strudel, Fritz.

USA, Canada / What kind of American food do Poles like most? [80]


All delicious, but, although many varieties of beans are native to the New World, there are also many varieties of beans that are native to the Old World, unlike tomatoes and chili peppers which were once exclusively New World aliments.


Turkey is foul, but potatoes can be good tasting if properly prepared.


Coffee is far too acidic. It is sad to see that this disgusting beverage is provided for free in so many workplaces.


A freshly made corn tortilla is unsurpassed amongst other starchy foods for deliciousness. Although the foodstuff is more properly referred to as maize. "Corn" means any sort of edible grain and it was a word, in English, long before the discovery of the New World and its maize.

I am not surprised that you are familiar with depravity, delphiandomine. Your posts show it.


My real name is quite Polish. You should stop trying to be an ethnologist. It requires an education that you obviously lack.

Delphiandomine's gossipy ********* posts upon this forum are yet more examples of a foreign guy behaving in a low down dirty manner while in Poland.

You are Cracovian Pawain? Is wine more popular in your region of Poland than elsewhere? I have heard that the Slovaks, who share a border with Southern Poland, are very fond of wine, whilst their fomer co-nationals, the Czechs, are the most ardent bibbers of beer on the Earth.

Life / What's wrong with Poland? I don't see anything. [121]


Your observations regarding American volunteer workers are very insightful, f stop, but the fact that you felt the need to make them in a thread titled "what's wrong with Poland?" is an unfortunate result of the shoddy moderation upon this forum which allows threads to be hijacked by an insane little gang of British expatriates.

P3undone, you are a moderator here and a Polish-American. Why don't you explain to the gang why they shouldn't engage in this behavior, and threaten them with some consequences if they persist in disrupting the forum?

History / Khazar migrations to Eastern Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine [106]


Indeed the Khazars are not forgotten in Russia. Pushkin, who is to Russia what Mickiewicz is to Poland, included a young Khazar khan named Ratmir amongst the suitors for the hand of Ludmilla in his poem Ruslan and Ludmilla and he had Ratmir act very gallantly, without exception, unlike some of her other suitors. (I highly reccomend viewing the 1972 cinematic adaptation of this poem, not just for an example of the high esteem modern Russians have for the Khazars, but also for its mindblowingly surreal sets and special effects.) So too Russian historians have very favorable views regarding the boons that the Pax Khazaria provided to the nascent Kievan Russian state in the form of trade and a buffer zone against the far less civilized Turkic peoples who would later cause so much misery for the Kievan Russ once the Khazar state declined.

History / Khazar migrations to Eastern Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine [106]



I am not a "crackpot jew hater". The Khazar story is a true one, nor do I believe that people who convert to Judaism are illegitimate.


Indeed, and the Khazars are Jews too.

Fuzzy is quite right and it is the moderators' fault for allowing this freak, delphiandomine, to continually engage in off-topic personal abuse of other forum members.


The fact that Harry has "no doubt" that every Polish-American who disagrees with him would have joined the Nazis in World War 2 Poland shows what a delusional, hate-filled, fanatic he is. The forum does not need this insanity.

History / Khazar migrations to Eastern Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine [106]


Wrong. Turkic peoples have inhabited some of the northernmost latitudes in Asia for thousands of years and thus they may be exceptionally pale. Finno-Ugrian peoples are also from Asia and they may be extremely pale as well. Finns are the blondest people on Earth. Yehudi is merely stereotyping all Turkic peoples as swarthy and Asiatic featured out of ignorance and nervousness about the ramifications of the Khazar conversion to Judaism for the legitimacy of the Zionist project in Palestine.

I was unaware I had two accounts. I must've registered twice without realizing it, but that hardly makes me a liar. You yourself have several accounts jonni, jonnyM, jon357, etc.


The links you posted did not disprove the OP's claim that he is of Khazar descent. As anyone reading the quotations from them that I posted can see. Jon367 why do you still insist that they do? Can't you read? You are unable to admit when you are wrong and it is really hilarious!

What does this bizarre desire to ban a word from this forum have to do with Khazar migrations to Poland, Belarus and Ukraine?

History / Khazar migrations to Eastern Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine [106]

quote=jon357]They are obscure. Very little is known about them compared to other societies of that Period[/quote]
What other societies of the period are you referring to? I suspect that you have none in mind and you are just claiming this due to your inability to admit that you were wrong (the frequent reader of this forum has seen you demonstrate this inability numerous times and it is hilarious!). The Khazars are known via the Kievan Primary Chronicle as well as through Byzantine and Arab sources.


I am not promoting the Khazar theory. I am saying that you are lying when you claim that it is a "racist" theory and that you are lying when you claim that 'science' has discredited it. The first link you provided says the following:


ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1274378/

The reader should note that this study shows that there are indeed Jews with Turkic ancestry and thus leaves open the possibility that some Jews living today are indeed descendants of the Turkic Khazars as is the belief in the OP's family. So much for your claim that the first study you linked to refutes the Khazar theory, Jon357, although it does "refute the discredited Khazar theory" in the sense that it refutes its discreditation, but I suspect that you contradicted what you intended to say out of carelessness. (you surely can't have posted over 1,100 times in this forum in less than 4 months while choosing all of your words carefully.)

The second link you posted says the following:


ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC18733/?tool=pmcentrez

Again this refutes your claim that science has utterly refuted theories that claim that many of today's Jews are descendants of converts, such as the Khazars, jon357.

Your third link is a NY Times article about a study that does claim to refute the role of mass conversion in making the modern Jewish genome. So I guess we'd have to say that "the third time was the charm" for you, Jon357, you tried, and you tried, and you finally posted a link that, sort of, supports what you say about the refutation of the Khazar theory. Congratulations!

I do wish to take issue with the fact that you seem to be calling the OP, and his family, racists for believing that they have Khazar ancestry and that is just plain rude. Why would it be racist to believe that many of the Khazars that converted to Judaism stuck with their adopted faith and came West out of the Pontic Steppe? History shows that even before the 12th Century a portion of the Jewish Khazars, called Kabars, went West with the Magyars and settled in Pannonia. I suspect the reason that you call the Khazar theory "racist" is contained in the OP's post:


Jon357, you are lying, and being rude, upon this thread out of loyalty to the Zionist project and it doesn't matter to you if Khazar ancestry is only attributable to one out of twenty modern Jews. You are an extremely zealous Zionist that can't allow any claim that some of Europe's Jews are descendants of Japheth rather than Shem.
