News / Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [252]

About NATO intervention in Ukr.

I know, that's what I meant too. Are you a reservist? Or will you just observe on TV and write comments here?

The end of Russian wannabe imperialism.

For the price of our soldiers' life. Indeed something to celebrate. :-/

they think they're owed a sphere of influence

They can think that because they have nuclear wespons. I know, I know, most of them are "rusty", but let's assume 20-30% can be used. That's still quite enough, isn't it?

If you really are happy about the coming war, then gas chamber may be a bit harsh and too nazi but, in the good Slavic tradition, perhaps a психушка place would help.

Poles, don't be afraid

You confused the sites. This is not czechforums.com.

The words 'Poles' and 'afraid' do not collocate.

We can worry a bit, we can be pissed off or disgusted, but never scared - genetically we are incapable.

If Russia has so many tanks, where are they?

Those Russian tanks are away from the front in reserve. And it's not me saying this but NATO experts.

knowing your fascination with dogs and bestiality

Wow, you really are one sick individual.

Now I can see that what Pawian was saying about you was 100% true.

Russia is building a "panzer fist" to attack NATO...

We haven't heard from the guy for about a week, so either he was caught by the Border Guards/Police or already in Deutschland hat die Vorsehung ihn geborgen.

Or simply someone who took advantage of something available to him.

Still a Putin helper. He doesn't give a toss if he's a part of a hybrid war against countries he expects aid from, he doesn't care that people like him destabilise the EU and help our enemies, he doesn't care about the opinion of the local population among whom he comes to live, all he cares about is himself. People like that are morally repulsive.

Hopefully he will have found some support.

He is a criminal who illegally crossed the Polish border as a part of Belarussian hybrid warfare against Poland.

Hopefully he went to one of the two addresses recommended to him in #3 or #9.

Poland does not want your 3rd world ass

He doesn't want to stay in Poland, bigmo. He's on his way to Germany and he got as far as Kętrzyn already - with all the Border Guards everywhere! That's not bad, so let's be civil.

There's no reason to be uncivil.

Certainly.

You're in Kętrzyn, right? Report to Gen. Władysława Sikorskiego 78 street...

Happy to help.

Language / Polish slang phrases - most popular. [630]

jarac

'Jarać' is not a regional word - it is an ancient Polish and indeed Slavic lexical item. It originally means 'to burn' or to 'set on fire' but, as Maf and Jon noticed, it can also mean 'to smoke' (cigarettes, weed etc.). It's from proto-Slavic 'jariti' (to make hot, to inflame) and it is connected to Jarilo ('the fiery one') - a Slavic god of fiery life and spring vitality...



... reconnect with your Slavic roots, birdie! :)

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 17 [627]

I personally spent a decade working with the poor and homeless, welfare is abused and it does have a deleterious effect on many recipients.

The social workers I know are saying exactly the same thing. There is something inherently wrong in the current system of handing out benefits to all the poor instead of just the deserving ones. There has to be a way to distinguish between genuine need and irresponsible dependence, right? If the system discourages work and thrift, and creates whole generations of people for whom entitlement replaces effort and will to escape hardship through hard work, then it should be changed.

I hope Rich lives to 120

Hear, hear.

He pretends to be a Pole-eater but, as a little bird told me, in reality he is a great Polish patriot. :)

Life / If you lived abroad, would you like to have a Pole as a neighbor? [93]

you are coming across as a peasant

Polish peasants are very decent people - salt of this earth and good Catholics, not falling for either communist or nazi nonsense. It is by and large thanks to them that Poland emerged from nazi occupation and then communist rule as a still Christian country.

History / Anniversary of Soviet Invasion [116]

I can't imagine that they just smile and hold the other cheek

I can't see it either. The mutual relations would definitely deteriorate even further.

But it is not Germany who should worry too much. This time it is Russia who started the war, and it is behind Russia that the stink of this war will drag for decades.

History / Anniversary of Soviet Invasion [116]

are these fears und grudges against Germans or Nazis?

Hmm... a difficult question. Did the German women who were raped by Russian soldiers had later fears and grudges against Russians or Communists?

it's abit puzzling

Not that much. If Russia can still exploit old fears and grudges in their propaganda, they will do it. All dirty tricks are used in a war.

History / Anniversary of Soviet Invasion [116]

Torqi, do Poles feel they want to be be saved by Russia from big bad Germany?

No, but it is still possible to persuade them (especially the older generation) that Germany has evil intentions. Do you remember when Kaczyński expressed opposition to Germany stationing Patriot systems in Poland, and it was only after much debate that the PiS government changed course? 80 years after the war, and Kaczyński still tried to exploit the opposition to the presence of German troops in Poland, even when you only tried to help! Never underestimate old grudges and old fears, BB.
