History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [337]


Interviewer: Father Walerian Meysztowicz claimed that right-bank Ukraine - Kiev, Podolia, Volhynia - was like Sicily in Italy. Both of these lands were the most backward regions of their countries. The material disparities here were unimaginable. In the mid-19th century, 7,000 representatives of the Polish landed gentry owned 3 million "souls" aka peasant slaves.

Daniel Beauvois: Such a comparison is absolutely right. It was a world that the Poles from Warsaw simply despised. It was probably nowhere as bad as here. Until the eve of the Bolshevik revolution, the relations between the village and the manor were not regulated and there was nothing normal about them...
At the end of the 19th century, land began to bring in greater profits, so every inch of it counted. Polish landowners evicted everyone they could, and the land was leased to colonists - Germans and Czechs, because they paid more than local Ukrainians.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [337]


You refuse but you will listen and read coz I feel the overwhelming urge to educate you and other Poles/Polesses living in sweet denial.

Let`s look at some of the French historian`s opinions, step by step.


His name is Daniel Beauvois. What a decent man.

Interviewer: Your book, "The Ukrainian Triangle," has a horrifying list that stretches over two pages: a landowner beat a peasant to death, which was deemed "in accordance with God's will," a tallyman beat a pregnant woman to death - he was given a two-week prison sentence. All this takes place not in the 15th century, but in the 1830s.

Daniel Beauvois: After all, these are facts recorded in Polish tribunals, later transferred to Russian archives! The Statute of Lithuania, which was created in the 16th century, was still in force at that time. It was extremely cruel, allowing peasants to be treated like slaves, like cattle. Some landowners were even convinced that a peasant had no soul. Were all landowners like that? Of course, there were lords who helped their peasants during floods, famines or droughts. However, as a rule, the people as such were treated, to put it mildly, with great contempt. And in Ukraine, the contempt was even greater. Because the Orthodox were considered schismatics, the worst kind of peasantry.

Of course, without denial, that`s British culture. But only on the surface. Open display of hatred or simple resentment is considered vulgar by Brits who try to copy the manners of their cultured royals and aristocrats. Let`s not forget that the main reason for successful Brexit was the massive influx of immigrants, mainly from Poland. Brits had enough and I can easily understand them, coz, with a tongue in my cheek, I already expressed my delight at a lot of Polish useless pathological scum moving to Britain after the borders were open.

TSA played similar music to AC/DC but had one major advantage over Australians - they sang in Polish. I bought all their records in 1980s.
The song you presented here - 3 Matches - is a beautiful ballad which got fans to light lighters during concerts, thus creating an unforgettable atmosphere. Today people do it with their phones.

Their lead singer had an amasing voice. Check it out here:

Another denier I see.:(:(:( Polish crimes are non existent, but others` crimes against the Polish nation are horrible atrocities.
Pathetic. Alien, I thought you were different that those nationalist azholes.

Hey, Poles and Polesses in denial, the sooner you admit to your imperial crimes , the better for all of us.

Read an interview with a French historian, an expert on the history of Eastern Europe who commited a book about Polish colonialism in former Rus territory:

Yes, alien, a goose neck. While my wife uses turkey necks for her broth.

I love necks coz they give me the opportunity to scratch meat from around bones.

But recently I read a nasty article which advises against eating them. It made me sick.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [337]

Polish colonialism for which Kania and Ironside stubbornly refuse to apologise also applied to Rus territory which later became Belarus.

After WW1, Poland won the war with bolshevik Russia and in result took control of western Belarus.

Here is a good article how Polish authorities and nationalists brutally suppressed Belarusian aspirations for autonomy.

onet.pl/informacje/nowaeuropawschodnia/od-wiekow-zesmy-spali-lecz-nas-obudzono-bialoruska-wlosciansko-robotnicza-hromada/nym518m,30bc1058

At the end of 1926, the first arrests of Hromada activists were made in all counties. The police increasingly dispersed rallies and meetings of Hurtkas . Militant groups, mainly National Democrats, took part in this. Another witness of that period, Roman Bielawiec recalled: MP Piotr Miotła and other well-known Belarusian activists came to one meeting in Berezowo. The police sent provocateurs who quickly started a fight. Miatła tried to convince the police that we were doing everything in accordance with the law, but they attacked people with weapons anyway. They beat and tortured them terribly. Those who were running away were caught up with and trampled on by horses."

Although parliamentary status guaranteed them immunity, on the night of 14-15 January 1927 the party leaders, led by Taraszkiewicz, were arrested. That night, a total of around 800 people were arrested in all the north-eastern provinces; searches were also carried out in all the BWRH premises. A brutal crackdown on Hromada began. Its activists filled the prisons of the Republic. In March 1927 the party was banned.

Does it mean Kania posted photos with links to another site??? I happened years ago.

I thought today ALL photos are displayed by the forum engine as its own ones. If they are uploaded by the "[+] files" link then yes, but if they are uploaded via 'IMAGE' URL then they are hosted on external websites.
