News / Success: 120 of Polish Pesa trams for Moscow! [19]

PiS nationalised Pesa as it was in dire financial straights, they are a world class train and tram manufacturing outfit, they have had sales in germany as well as bulgaria. I hope they get more orders in western markets over the next 10 years. I was thinking of actually convincing them to bid for aussie contracts as bombradier and the spanish outfit have a stranglehold on trams here, and they overcharge like buggery.

News / How could PiS better spend billions instead of 500+ ? [280]

and build your own roads and trains, and pay for your own 2 million dollar cancer treatment, pay for your primary school education. what rubbish. as obama said you didin't build that bridge somebody else built that"

History / Regaining Poland's Independence in 1918 - 'Unconquered' video by IPN released [18]

yes when it first came out and when i used to watch molyneux regularly. O.k heres something a bit more 'intelectual' guv ;) from about page 35

"In a world where national identity matters greatly, mixing different peoples together, which is what happens when there are open borders and broadminded refugee policies, is usually a prescription for serious trouble." belfercenter.org/sites/default/files/files/publication/International%20Security_Bound%20to%20Fail.pdf

lol molyneux and robinson, i don't deny they have some good points, esp robinson but he has an idealised non polish perspective of it all. molyneux is a bit of a hack. i'm sure we can dig a little bit deeper intelectually ;)

History / Why did Hitler call Poles Half Jews? [98]

where does the olive skin and brown eyes come from? of course during hundreds of years of raids there would have been many rapes and those genes wouldhave been passed down

History / Why did Hitler call Poles Half Jews? [98]

King Kazimierz gave sanctuary to millions of jews across europe who were suffering pogroms and persecution at the time. Polish people also have a strong share of Tatar and Mongol genes. the olive skin and brown eyes look. Basically before WWII Poland was a multiethnic society with polish tribes, ukranian tribes and polish jews living together and cohabitating and marriage etc with other poles. I don't know much about hitlers views but perhaps he was influenced by polish towns such as lwow, where polish jews where in the majority.

News / Polish final report on Smoleńsk aircrash [859]

If they flew to smolensk in the back of a hercules or antonov then your point might be less ludicrous. This was a civilian airplane tasked for transporting the heads of the goverment, not running bomb deliveries. The report from the Forensic lab will be published shortly, how will you try to deflect from the truth then?

News / Polish final report on Smoleńsk aircrash [859]

So how will you attempt to smear the UK Defence Science and Technology Laboratory's Forensic Explosives Laboratory then ? They are very clear on explosives traces being on the aircraft, specifically the wing that sheared off, not perfumes etc. PiS stooges as well? The evidence is clear from a multitude of experts. However the russian apologists on this forum continue in their rabid defence play, paid PO shills?

News / Polish final report on Smoleńsk aircrash [859]

Well the tide is finally turning, and the the 'conspiracy' theory is being proven true, with more and mroe serious media starting to take it seriously. Love how it makes years of postings by delph and jon making them look like deluded fools

"Given Taylor's status as a respected air crash investigator, the Smolensk disaster needs thorough reinvestigation by experienced third parties, neither Polish nor Russian. In truth, Western intelligence has had grave doubts about the "official" version of Smolensk from the outset. A senior Polish security official bluntly informed me, "Of course Warsaw knew the truth," meaning the previous government sought to keep peace with Putin " observer.com/2018/05/evidence-shows-russia-had-role-in-smolensk-crash-killed-kaczynski/

News / PO to boycott TVP in Poland [37]

Considering Polsat and TVN are very anti the current goverment, what is wrong with TVP being pro goverment, to provide balance in the media landscape?. In Australia and UK the state run media is quite left, and people generally accept that, whats wrong with the state run media being conservative in poland whilst PIS is in power? There are higher rated, better funded dissenting channels. The Guardian/NYTimes line that media is being supressed in Poland rings hollow.

News / POLAND to have its own automobile brand (back), the SYRENA! [36]

It sounds like a great idea, but their press release gives me pause.


Basically this company has just bought the brand name syrena and do not seem to have any automotive manufacuring experience. Unfortunately polands car manufacturing capacity has been destroyed, the fso plant in warsaw has been dismantled due to corruption and mismanagement.

Travel / Why does everyone seem to hate LOT Polish Airlines? [382]

seems the 787 is their last attempt at profibility, should be cutting edge passenger experience, def superiour to 10 abreast seating in emirates 777!

Travel / Why does everyone seem to hate LOT Polish Airlines? [382]

pgtx : usually it is only donw with low cost carriers or if the air bridges are used, in warsaw we have ridiculous ; air bridges not being used and all the lot planes on remote stands.

Travel / Why does everyone seem to hate LOT Polish Airlines? [382]

What i don't like is they don't use the air bridges at okęncie but instead pack you onto a bus. For business travelers this would be annoying when prob the competing carrier shells out to use the air bridge.
