History / Honoring - Otto Schimek [47]

@Bratwurst Boy
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

Seems to a issue, and I can't find the short* again so far. A pity

It seemed rather believable, especially as flowers are still laid down at his grave. I would have to check German wikipedia. As it is highly interesting that such a claim is written there

Szczera prawda, z tym się zgadzam.
Po prostu takie zapędy jak nazywanie nawzajem agentami obcego państwa bez konkretnych dowodów za zagrywkę polityczną. Niczym więcej, więc w innym rozumieniu pic na wodę. Głupota i strata czasu

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)

@gumishu
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

@gumishu
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. [512]


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"

I recall hearing that an Israeli Queen would remain a queen (with the title) after her husbands death (The King that is). So it's Queen-Mother, which only underlines traditions of pre-Jesus Israel

@johnny reb
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

History / Why do Polish people hate to be called Eastern European? [120]


Just as Iceland isn't a scandinavian country, but Nordic. Iceland is a nordic country not British, despite being a Island in north western europe.

Chinese are east asians, not middle eastern and western slavs are central europeans, not eastern europeans nor eastern slavs.

Before 1939 one could argue Poland (not Poles) is a central&eastern european country due to mix of Poles, Unrainians and Belarussians.

Nowadays Poland is very much further west geographically but, also more connected to western projects, alliances and union. Eastern european states are not, only few eastern europeans that have anything to do with west or nordic countries are the baltic states, due to their similar sensitivity they prefer to be understood as Baltic, nordic, european more then Eastern european due to their drift towards nordic countries and Germany. Throughout history in general

I am not a big fan of PiS, but after the attack on the combatants in Ravensbrück. The news are spreading Polish media space (not mainstream yet I think)



Now I am officially hostile to the current German government, Scholz and the director of the Museum in Racensbrück.

This is a direct result of the German produced series that villainised Polish underground movement and presented it as antisemitic.

I am fairly certain that NATO defence is regarding defence of members sovereign territory. Not that of expeditions abroad, then that's up individual states relations unless clarified in the treaty (that I do not know of)

They weren't planting that flag on top of the museum, they were portraying solidarity with the victims, does not surprise me you side with those that wishes to continue the camps traditions and bring it back!

Polish journalists and members of ww2 combatants group were attacked today by Antifa in German concentration camp, while German police ignored the situation. Just cause they had Polish flags.

So no, I am not convinced of doing or supporting anything in Middle East. Poland got enough problems at home and with neighbours already!

Better with a foe that knows our worth then a friend that does not. Polish-Turkish relations have only improved since the Siege of Vienna, I wouldn't call that a bad thing for Poland.
