I'll forgive you that statement, since it is based on ignorance


I am sure people buy what's cheaper in the long run and not what's binds them to Russian energy. It boggled my mind that ordinary people did not care or see the risk of buying gas. Even if it was cheapest

I am sorry? What?!
I did see solar panels on rooftops in Poland. I was merely jesting with him since he clearly doesn't know that I have seen them. As he blazingly claimed I have not!

So I have not seen solar power on Polish rooftops? Nicely new built houses in old neighbourhoods? Cars after cars outside cities?

I am on topic, you claimed PO is controlling Poles brains in Poland. I wrote that yeah, but it's basically of little consequence. A Pole only needs to travel abroad to see the truth.

What transformation? I used to play a game of counting Maluchs in 90's. Now it's basically impossible

My post was not about my ignorance, but that of westerners and Poles themselves.

And it's Mr Grunwald, not Grünewalt, Von Grünewalt or Von Grunwald or Greenwood. Mind you

Hear hear, I have personally seen an awakening of this reality when working in Poland. General image of a country being "modern, not old fashioned and future oriented" only to come downing on them when visiting the country. Seeing the size of the population, technology and architecture.

A lot of westerners still see Poland as fully eastern bloc country and are shocked over the transformation when experiencing it.

It will take many more years but, more and more Poles will see that actually Poland is very much future oriented despite many Poles grievances with village mentality or prejudice of non-city inhabitants.

I walked village to village in Poland, there isn't much to complain about really except a few oddballs that only a strong headed local village mayor they know can handle. Otherwise it's only a matter of economical difference (other countries do have their share of village pumpkins, yet far more hostile to change then in Poland).

Just within energy, transportation and whatnot Poland is climbing forward. Yet others are cosy mosey stuck with what they are used to.

I noticed innovative Poles even in PiS, village landscape. (pawian being more rural then urban sure can attest to that himself)

History / Monte Cassino 80th Anniversary [18]

@Bobko
Polish victory (Not only Polish victory as it was a team effort)

German Fallschirmjägers disobeyed orders of withdrawal and kept on fighting, one of the most elite troops the Axis powers had to offer. Polish forces offensive advance towards the monastery allowed for other allied troops to push forward and get closer to encircle the monastery. Forcing the German troops to withdraw despite their initial wish to keep on fighting.

The victory at Monte Cassino finally allowed the allied troops to get closer to enter Rome and seal the fate of Italy as a participant in WW2.

Churchill was the mind of Polish troops being insignificant during a quarrel with either Sikorski or General Anders. After the Quarrel a certain General or Marshal Alexander had to point it out for him that without the Polish troops, an advance northwards in Italy would have been highly unlikely.

It was a major victory for the Allied forces, not just propaganda

Not as much as judgement from my side, more of an appreciation of humanity in a single soldier I can only dream of reaching in terms of actions in my own lifetime. Past is the past, but it is a calming thing for me to see men I can try to strive for to be

History / Honoring - Otto Schimek [47]

@Bratwurst Boy
There are plenty of other scenario's (safer?) that I can imagine him trying to desert. Many armies employ the accusation of desertation as a reason of harsh punishments for individual soldiers for, petty reasons, political, disobedience or others.

So I'll remain sceptical, he seems like did a good thing despite a horrible situation

@Lyzko
That's because they lack honour! This single soldier raises up the entire German military! Just think if 1 million soldiers like him were present in the Wehrmacht! It would have kept the honour of the German military from times of preWW1

Szczera prawda, z tym się zgadzam.

Nie chodzi mi o detale obu tragedii i typ ofiar.

Chodzi mi o to że stanęli się partiami związanymi z bólem i cierpieniem własnej ludności poprzez te dwa akty horroru, i zrobili z tego czegoś więcej niż trzeba było z zwykłych ludzkich potrzeb u własnych członków.

PiS dostał wstrzyknięcie Anty-Rosyjskie
A Arbeiderpartiet wstrzyknięcie Anti-"prawico-terrorystyczne"

W obu przypadkach, zjawisko bycia w oblężonej twierdzy

Niewielu, ale wystarczył jeden wysoko postawiony który zrobił niezły burdel dla całej siatki na początku wojny. Powinieneś o tym poczytać jak tak piszesz.


I ci co byli po lewej stronie politycznie ale członkami AK.

PiS uważał i z czego rozumiem dalej uważa się za kontynuacją PPS. Ma więcej wspólnego z "Labour" w Brytanii zanim oszaleli i z Arbeiderpartiet w Norwegii zanim te nowe trendy się pojawiły z którymi PiS się nie zgadza (głównie z powodu starszego elektoratu)

Nawet widzę pewne podobizny (Martyrologia Utøya/Martyrologia Smoleńska)

Uważam to za zupełnie wykonalne z strony obcych służb (nie tylko Rosyjskich) by się przedstawić fałszywie jako pracownicy wywiadu Polskiego by naciskać na pewnych Polskich polityków (nie patrząc na ugrupowanie, skrajne czy nie, lewa czy prawa)

Wystarczy by osoba miała kontakty z osobami które mają dostęp do ścisłych informacji.

Trzeba pamiętać że byli szmalcownicy podczas drugiej wojny światowej. To będą też tacy dzisiaj

Uważam że 1/3 w KO i w PiS są członkami w partii jedynie z powodów szantażu w jednej czy innej formie. To że uważasz za niemożliwe by była promila ludzi z tych 1/3 która by uległa Rosyjskim szantażom, była by powodem by kontrwywiad w Polsce by nie miał ani wsparcia finansowego, politycznego lub chętniej współpracy z wojskiem i służbami cywilnymi.

Co bym uważam za zlekceważenie niebezpieczeństwa

Po polsku / Polska miedzy Niemcami i Rosja. Zalety i wady. [521]


1. Rosyjska agentura była by w pełni naiwna i niekompetentna gdyby nie miała wgląd w Polskie sprawy. Wystarczy pamiętać o tym że Sowieci mieli swojego agenta na wysokim szczeblu w rządzie Polskim i zwlekała z dotrzymaniem umowy z Hitlerem do póki Stalin nie dostał gwaranci i informacji o tym że Brytyjczycy i Francuzi nie będą się ingerować w sprawie Polski.

Niemcy przecież byli wkurzeni że Sowieci zwlekali do 17. Września zamiast 3. Września tak a propo.

2. Pamiętam historię z rodziny jak to bliska osoba rodziny wyszła za mąż z pewnym Rosjaninem. Była w pełni zakochana a okazało się że był szpiegiem który zwiał przy pierwszej okazji znalezienia dokumentów. Była w zupełnej rozpaczy, pracowała w dyplomacji.

Więc oblewanie jednej z stron politycznych za przymierzanie się z Rosją jest jedynie taktyką polityczną z czasów przed zaborów, podczas zaborów i póżniej.

Niech mi przedstawiają dowody, do sądu i kwita. A nie takie głupogadanie w mediach, przecież to zniżanie się do poziomu Kaczyńskiego i jego "Germanofibii"

It's dangerous, it will give enough legitimacy to have larger control over the judiciary by the state. Which would make PiS a laughingstock (Their whole shebang is about judiciary, their name being Law&Justice as a name).

If Tusk get's control or atleast supervision by his own men or loyalists in the intelligence agencies. It would give impression of handling commie judges better then PiS.

It would also be a opening in the future to shift the balance of power between parlament, government and judiciary.

I thought all types of such lizards do that, that's why you don't catch them by the tail.

It was a horrible crime done by one of my former dogs on my Polish grandmas vacation spot in the farmlands outside Warsaw. She wanted the Lizards to be alive and plenty to combat the bugs that was there. The dog had other plans and hunted the lizards for sport.

It was a tragicomedy to behold
