News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]

Will they have enough of honesty then to raise the retirement age against the wish of their iron electorate? :)

:):):) Come on, this referendum is another spoof, nobody in PiS is taking it seriously, I mean they don`t care about the results, they are doing it to have an opportunity to lash out at the previous gov, now in opposition, for introducing various unpopular laws.

It reminds me of another referendum that communists held in 1980s to test their popularity. Its results were also completely unimportant.

History / Polish Army Day [82]

they arranged the marching troops chronologically, starting with medieval shield warriors at 2:45.

It seems this scheme has become a norm for military parades in Poland. The parade on 100th anniversary of regaining independence also featured old military formations.

The typical chronology of the marching/riding re-enactment troops

Medieval shield warriors from 10th century
Medieval spear riders
Medieval armoured infantry and mounted knights 15th century
Musketeers and pikemen 16-17th cent
Hussaria or winged riders 16-17th cent
Napoleonic wars soldiers 18-19th cent
Insurgents from Polish Risings of 18th - 19th century, among them peasant infantry wielding scythes.
Greater Poland Rising soldiers, 1919
Polish Bolshevik war soldiers, 1920
Uhlans from interwar period
Soldiers from 1939 campaign

See them all in this short video

History / Polish Army Day [82]

closed entirely for the past two hours. Apparently for rehearsals for Army Day,

yes, I read articles about it.

Yet no actual movement at all, no rehearsal, no soldiers.

Strange. I have too little info to blame PiS for another failure, let`s wait.

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]

PiS published the second question it intends to ask in the referendum, which is to be held together with the parliamentary elections on October 15.

"Are you in favor of raising the retirement age which today is 60 for women and 65 for men " -

This time the question was asked by former Prime Minister and current MEP Beata Szydło.

It was PO which increased the retirement age, but the change was not abrupt, the full introduction of it was to last 30 years. It was PiS which lowered it to the previous level.

Now there is a problem. Homo sovieticuses who don`t want to work one day longer than necessary welcomed the PIS` change with great pleasure. However, being idiots who aren`t able to count, they didn`t realise the pensions would be dramatically low if the retirement is so early.

Now they still vote for PiS which offers them the 13th and 14th pension. This is a vicious circle. And the finances of the state are under extreme pressure. PIS is indebting Poland like no other gov before.

It is my kids who will have to pay all those debts one day. Unless they emigrate, but I doubt it coz I taught them to be patriots of Poland, with such message - stay in your motherland and work hard to develop it.

Therefore, let me repeat my holy words:

Fekk those dumb homo sovieticuses who prey on Poland like fekking leeches and refuse to lift a finger to improve their situation!!! Fekk PIS gangsters, too!

Since you are not living in Poland.

So what?? You didn`t live in Poland for 30 years but still voiced your crazy opinions in this forum since 2008. Now you have come back at last but 3 decades is a long time. That emigration surely imprinted negatively on your psyche coz you support fascists aka nationalist endeks. .

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [515]

the germans to prevent Paris from being like Warsaw after the war.

Quite impossible. Even if they destroyed a few bridges and landmarks in Paris, they wouldn`t have time to erase the whole city like Germans did in Warsaw for 5 years of the occupation.

10% destruction in Sept 1939.
15% destruction by suppressing the Ghetto Rising 1943
30% destruction during Warsaw Rising
35% destruction after the Rising when Germans methodically pulled down and burnt whole blocks and quarters.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [515]

the "Parasol" battalion

I have always been fascinated with that name. Umbrella in English! But in fact it referred to parachuting.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battalion_Parasol

Battalion "Parasol" - battalion of the Home Army , which was a unit for special tasks of the Diversion Directorate of the Home Army Headquarters, taking part in the Warsaw Uprising . It consisted mainly of Gray Ranks scouts .

The battalion is renowned for its numerous military actions in 1943-1944. It organized assassination missions, targeting key Gestapo officers and high-ranking Nazi Germany officials who were responsible for extreme terror in the Warsaw District.

How about adopting a stork for the Polish emblem??? There are a few stork emblems and coats of arms already, e.g, of small towns or noble families.

PIS accuses the opposition of planning to support Bel-Rus regime after the elections in Oct.

However, those cheeky PiS lying bastards were doing exactly the same thing. Now they are trying to erase it from our memories. Sorry, darlings, too late!

Let`s recall those golden years- PIS Prime Minister paying a friendly visit to Bel-Rus regime leader in 2016.

Amassing!

News / Years of Poland in the EU - assessment of pros and cons [1199]

Amasing hypocrisy of rightist PiS. Their Euro Parliament members don`t want to return to Poland and run for Polish parliament. Which is quite understandable coz in the EU they receive much higher salaries.

However,. they regularly lash at the EU and refuse to follow its rule of law standards. They stop it when the pay day is coming.

Cheeky hypocritical bastards.

History / Polish Army Day [82]

a bit from kindergarten

Old communist standards in the army required to paint the grass on the lawn so that it looked greener when a general came for an inspection of the garrison. Today PIS wants to paint planes. Not a big difference.

The best ones are in Warsaw. This year`s will be special.

So far, the biggest parade ever was organised by communists in 1966, to commemorate 1000 years of the Polish state (counting from baptism in 966).

It was interesting coz they arranged the marching troops chronologically, starting with medieval shield warriors at 2:45. Winged riders at 3:55.
Of course, communists didn`t allow AK veterans or Warsaw insurgents to march.

Amasing they are asking it after the sale of a big Polish oil company LOTOS to Saudi Arabians and Hungarians. PiS are cheeky bastards.

Part of the Gdańsk Refinery went to the Saudi company Saudi Aramco. The part covering the production of bitumen and nine fuel terminals was purchased by the private Polish company Unimot. The part related to biofuels was bought by the international company Rossi Biofuel. Orlen sold 417 Lotos petrol stations to the Hungarian MOL, buying from it at the same time stations in Hungary and Slovakia.

"Do you support the sale of state-owned enterprises?"

so they are Polish patriots but their voters are homo sovieticuses?

Even if they are patriots in case of Ukrainians (and only in this case, practically) , their voters still can be homo sovieticuses who prey on PiS benefits.

I don`t see any conflict in it. If you do, you are trying to catch me but to no avail. Ha!

Sorry for quoting the news again

Yes, it is already a cliched piece. It is clear you are desperately looking for arguments but can`t. :):):) Sorry,l you have to try harder with me. hahahaha

Not everyone was born with a silver spoon in their mouth like you were.

Yes, I was coz my parents worked hard for their wealth. And I take after them in this. I work hard and don`t need the state`s benefits like all those alcoholics and lazies who depend on give outs

Unfortunately that won't happen in Poland.

Because this is Poland, not Ireland. We are mentally still in Eastern Europe, at least half of the nation, those who vote for PiS and other crazies and azholes. We need a few more decades to develop like Ireland. Everything was going so well after the collapse of communism but Poles went mad and chose PIS in 2015. Amasing! Fekk PiS and their voters, all those pathetic homo sovieticuses, the slops remaining after the communist system.

It seems those PiS gangsters want to kill a few birds with one stone. They are going to ask more questions in the referendum. The first one has just been disclosed by PiS Chairman.

But as they are idiots, it is a very idiotic question which will strike them back.
Namely:
"Do you support the sale of state-owned enterprises?" hahahaha

PiS are cheeky bastards, indeed.
