You forgot The Netherlands and Australia.

Rich has his own demons. Haven't we all😅. I say we should have a group exorcism here at PF.
I'll gladly serve as referee.

Makin' it all up as ya go along, is that your m.o.?

A Jewish mother named Mary - nothing else need be said.

Forgetting are we that Jesus was a Jew as well🤣

No one's denying. Pontius Pilate had Jesus executed, end of story.

Your Church began the rumor which was a lie that the Jews murdered Jesus. In fact, the Romans (Rzymcy) murdered Jesus.

Judas Iskariot only betrayed Him so as not to incur the wrath of the Sanhedrin.

You're the better for it, Alien.
If for nothing else, the dialogue is so far superior to anything on current American TV, your English will benefit no end by watching the best from the. Golden Age of Television!

Don't let any jackasses here on PF tell you different.

Says you.

An enlightened, educated person surely does, so speak for yourself!

No normal person has
a death wish, yet if caught up in the passion of the moment, one might well give up their life for their country, albeit not willingly, perhaps.

Right on, Alien!

Hate cuts both ways, buster. What's the difference between Jews hating anti-semites and anti-semites hating Jews?

History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [599]

Sounds roughly like those Volga Germans living for centuries in Russia, not knowing a syllable of German, while claiming German citizenship, having never set foot outside their birth country!

History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [599]

They were born in Poland and their sole language was Polish.
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck...it's a duck!

To wiem, Panie Profesorze Przecinku.

Tell that last remark to Tadeusz Rozewicz, Julian Tuwim or Roman Polanski, that they're not really Poles. They'd spit right in your blind eyes and charge ya for the eye wash!

While it's true that Poland's Jews were not as integrated into mainstream society as those Jews in Germany post-Enlightenment, the above named persons considered themselves Poles first and foremost.

Dmowski was an avowed antis-Semite, Ron, so that leaves him out!

However, "My country, right or wrong" isn't ideal either. To criticize one's parents or one's country doesn't mean one loves them any less

History / Polish patriotism - through the ages [47]

Patriotism is a normal feeling. Nationalism though is something else again!

History / Is there any part of Polish history that's at least a bit glorious? [259]

One of my favorite dishes, sided of course w/home fried potatoes and sauerkraut😁

Exactly. Think of Joseph Cotten's Uncle Charlie in Hitchcock's "Shadow of a Doubt", if you still require proof.

Bundy though was a sociopath, this Robinson dude's a plain psychopath, obviously with own political ax to grind.

Language / Why is the Polish language so difficult? [375]

Real Polish men, straight to the bone, openly and shamelessly cry in public if so moved by passion, such as if the foreign press besmirch their proud, brave heritage, e.g. labelling German concentration camps Polish, along with other assorted lies!

Language / Why is the Polish language so difficult? [375]

G&S were simply too clever for their own good...and both STRAIGHT as a dye😄

Language / Why is the Polish language so difficult? [375]

And how!
In a lighter vain, even Milloecker & Lehar weren't as consistently and brilliantly clever.

They were unique, hands down.
