News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [680]

Now....will it be a "russian winter" against the Russians???

VLADIMIR Putin's army has just weeks to clinch a "symbolic" victory in a Ukrainian key city - or face a killer winter in the trenches.

thesun.co.uk/news/37280654/putin-pokrovsk-ukraine-winter-trenches/

...Temperatures in Ukraine can hit as low as -31C and can see average conditions plunge as deep as -8C - with blizzards capable of dumping up to 20 inches of snow in one day.

His soldiers could face deadly conditions akin to those suffered in the failed Soviet invasion of Finland in 1939 or the botched Nazi attack on Russia in 1941....

@Bobko
Hey Bobko, you have more info about Putin's health? Here the talk is about him being seen not as fit anymore...swollen hands....shaking leg and such...

News / Britain - problem for Poland and Poles? [133]

Like the Danes:

Radical asylum policy change among the British.

bild.de/politik/inland/radikale-asyl-wende-bei-den-briten-wie-bei-den-daenen-6919749f58d2cfb625f5d855

London - The number of migrants arriving in Britain - both legal and illegal - has been exploding for years. Now the Labour government is reacting and announcing sweeping reforms to initially curb illegal immigration.

Britain intends to fundamentally tighten its asylum policy, following Denmark's example, and is planning the biggest reform in decades. Refugees would be "forced to return to their country of origin as soon as it is deemed safe," the Home Office announced on Saturday.

Government reacts to disastrous poll numbers

Furthermore, the legal obligation to support certain asylum seekers, for example with housing and weekly payments, will be abolished, the Home Office announced on Saturday....

.....

....Not only that: The ministry intends to make refugees granted asylum wait 20 years before they can apply for long-term residence in the United Kingdom. Currently, it is five years.....

...now I get jealous! Germany next?

Life / Trendsetter from Poland. [113]

Oooh yeaaaah....its about time....

Proximity to Russia is becoming a problem

....For weeks, the party has seemed unable to find a clear, strategic position on Russia . The MAGA-Trump faction around Weidel, in particular, views the pro-Russian rhetoric of Chrupalla and others as an increasing threat to the party.....

www-zeit-de.translate.goog/politik/deutschland/2025-11/afd-russland-reise-sotschi-tino-chrupalla-alice-weidel?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp

My summary:

There are two factions fighting it out right now inside the AfD....one is called the "MAGA-faction"...with its most prominent head being Weidel, and the so called "Putin-faction", seemingly spoken for by Chrupalla (both together lead the AfD...or maybe soon "did").

The one likes to travel and meet up with Trump and Co.....the other likes to travel and meet up with Putin and Co...they come around, but at home the differences are mounting and pushes come to shove, decisions have to be made...not at least to make clear who in this leadership actually wears the trousers!

It shouldn't be a surprise that Putin-faction-leader Chrupalla describes Poland in the year 2025 as a possible danger...it's what Putin would like to hear...

...The dispute within the party escalated after it became public that an AfD delegation planned to travel to the Russian ski resort of Sochi for a support meeting of the so-called BRICS countries . ....

I guess the outcome of this power struggle will become decisive for the future of the party....

But they go against nature, against physics, against the ancient laws of what is right under heaven... and therefore we must bury them.

1) Women's rights
2) Space exploration
3) Higher education for all

I can't help thinking that the end of the "Cold War", the end of the "rivalry of the systems", didn't end well for the former East either....

Not only the West lost the need to stay above and sharp, got weak and soft....the East did too.

Maybe a new "war of the systems" is needed....just which systems?

PS: Bobko, two hearts are beating in your chest, ja? Enthusiastically supporting the war of Russia in Ukraine, but fearing for the US should they try something in Venezuela? Even as I guess the human costs would be alot lower for the US than for Russia....

I truly hope that white Westerners don't have to bawl like that one day....better to stop unwanted immigration now as long as we still can!

that they are there illegally. xD

Na ja....most USian illegals come right over the border from Mexico....most of them are not natives either....descendants from Spaniards and such, you know...

...or even from german Nazis settling there after the war....I'm always flabbergasted how many southern Americans show off old german family names!

I guess many real natives wouldn't be to sad to get rid of all these immigrants either...

...interesting question...but it seems they didn't...not all at least:

....Many Jews view Mamdani's sunny exterior with apprehension, and it's clear that the majority of Jews are not in his camp. Mamdani's leading rival, the pro-Israel centrist Andrew Cuomo, had the support of more than 60% of Jews, according to polls, despite his political baggage, particularly among Orthodox Jews. In some Orthodox areas of Brooklyn, Cuomo won more than 96% of the vote....

timesofisrael.com/mamdanis-election-win-puts-ny-jews-into-uncharted-waters/

...Tensions had already surfaced on Wednesday morning, when the ADL announced a "Mamdani monitor" and the mayor-elect said he didn't trust ADL chief Jonathan Greenblatt due to some of Greenblatt's past comments.

Surprise...or not:

....According to a survey by the US newspaper "The New York Times," Mamdani won among high-income earners by a margin of 13 percentage points and among the middle class by ten points. His strongest boroughs were Queens, Manhattan, and affluent Brooklyn.

He won among white voters (+5 points), Asians (+15), and Hispanics (+6)-groups that dominate in progressive neighborhoods. Among college graduates, he garnered 62 percent of the vote, according to an Emerson poll-another clear indication that Mamdani is the favorite of the college elite, not the working class.

Why do you think "a Muslim" in charge is disgraceful?

It's like voting for the one who hates you the most....is there anything more disgraceful?

Whats not to understand?

"We're done hiding. We're done. -This is the correct religion. This is the religion that all of humanity needs to be a part of Islam, and we will not stop until it enters every home.

- I wanna hear it in every single district. It should tremble. Brooklyn should hear it. The Bronx should hear it. Queens should hear it. Say it as if the ummah depends on this, my brothers and sisters - There is no God worthy of worship except Allah - and final prophet, Mohammed."

Don't come later and sob "i never knew"...or....."if someone only had told me"....its all there, they are not even hiding their plans for us!

At least Germany is doing something now and banned a big organization who openly demand a Kalifat in Germany:

..."Anyone who aggressively calls for the Caliphate on our streets, incites intolerable hatred against the State of Israel and Jews, and despises the rights of women and minorities will be met with the full force of the law. We will not allow organizations like 'Muslim Interactive' to erode our free society with their hatred, despise our democracy, and attack our country from within," said Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt in a press release.
...

de.euronews.com/2025/11/05/muslim-interaktiv

A good start...but there are more enemies to remigrate back to their 'stans!

I will never understand the leftist hate against rightists, fearing a dictatorship, the end of democracy and liberal rights, and at the same time their undying support and understanding for islamists and their open war against democracy and liberal rights. It's a walking lie...the Left is living a lie!

but we are not very good at making them our friends.

Friends with blood dropping dictators and murdering drug lords? I hope you never...

But I really think your fear of full scale invasions and long term occupations is not well founded! Your examples have also alot to do with the so called "nation building" and crap back then...but as I said, that was another time back then, and govs believed to get brownie points for such interventions....globally and at home!

To plan and start such huge things you need to care about such stuff mightily, but Trump gives only a ***! He only wants these men to stop "hurting" the US!

I could rather see an accident of Maduro...or maybe some kind of blockade...but not really an invasion!

Trumps services should have a long and complete list of the important heads to take out...

Thats from two days ago:

Donald Trump has played down the possibility of a US war with Venezuela, but suggested Nicolás Maduro's days as the country's president were numbered.

Asked if the US was going to war against Venezuela, the US president told CBS' 60 Minutes: "I doubt it. I don't think so. But they've been treating us very badly."

For two months, the US military has been building up a force of warships, fighter jets, bombers, marines, drones and spy planes in the Caribbean Sea. It is the largest deployment there for decades.

The US continues to launch strikes on alleged drug-smuggling boats in the Caribbean. The Trump administration says the strikes are necessary to stem the flow of drugs into the US.

I don't think America has learned anything.

Trump also promised to DO something....against the illegal immigration....against the drug trade....to bring order into chaos, or at least trying!

Something no recent US gov so far as tackled....cut the man some slack, Bobko.....or am I on a totally wrong boat, watching from far away Berlin? ;)

They let the demon out of the box, and achieved nothing.

Na ja....they learned! It won't happen again (most probably)...

You must'n forget that was another time....deciders were born as foreign wars were fought for a good cause (the world wars) and more importantly, successfull...ending with an enormous addition on influence and economical possibilities.

Now the times have changed again...judgements have changed....whereas foreign wars become a NoGo...the ways how to handle drug lords and their minions might change too!

Chavez and Maduro have raised two whole generations of Venezuelans who know nothing except Chavista rule.

That "raising" is overestimated alot IMHO. If all these radical teachings from Kindergarten onwards would be that effective the communist bloc would still be existent and flourishing and full of happy followers!

But it isn't, especially not if the life outside the class rooms and state propaganda is so dire, poor and dangerous for everybody to see! Ask the ex-GDR'ians! :)

.....still...its not only the coastlines...military interventions in far away places are usually not a good idea, even with the best intentions! So, we can most probably throw that idea into the bin.

But drugs are a huge problem...and kicking these south american drug lords mightily in the nuts could be done with different means, no full scale wars needed.

If America comes to stay... I think it will be just as bad as Afghanistan and Iraq, or maybe even as bad as Vietnam.

Not rather greeted as liberators? People are suffering and fleeing the regime....

Cuba would be another such case....or Nicaragua....all these left radicals have destroyed their countries thoroughly, I doubt there is anybody left wanting to defend them.

Especially as the muslim religious nutters (Afghanistan etc.) aren't existent in the US' "backyard"....neither is Stalinism (Vietnam)....nor support from the former Soviet bloc....

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The big cities in the West are usually hard left as the regions are usually more conservative....Berlin amidst the AfD-East is ruled now since decades by Reds and Greens....it didn't made the city better in any way, quite the contrary....I guess Mamdani will end up the same after four years.

Trump threatened to cut funding to New York if he won.

Oh and yeah...Berlin is supported by BILLIONS of Euros every year too! Without much to see for it....and that funding is paid only grumbling by most non-Berliner conservative Germans too...

I guess thats the future....a few left big cities with alot of conservative land around them....but the funding WILL become a problem for these cities!

That someone like him is allowed to run for such a position is just astounding.....a muslim and practically a foreigner...interesting!

Islam is at war with the West....world wide muslims were and are cheering western dead and murdered...as happened during 9/11....

Could be difficult for him trying to show where he truly stands, when the time for remembrance comes or if another such an attack happens again...
