History / Why Was D-Day So Significant for Poland ? [266]
I don't think so....
It weren't only the boots on the ground, but the sanctions and the boycotts which made it much harder for Germany to get ressources....not to mention the daily bombing which chipped away constantly at the war machine...
Not to mention that the western forces were much easier to surrender too....all these forces kept in the East, with no inclinement of surrendering, I doubt the Russians would had made it into Germany.
I could imagine a "standstill" in what is now Poland...on the old "default lines"...
Yes, he would.

Interesting....Google says it differently:
Submarines were first built by Dutch inventor Cornelius van Drebel in the early 17th century (1620), but it was not until 150 years later that they were first used in naval combat. David Bushnell, an American inventor, began building underwater mines while a student at Yale University.
(after all it was a Pole who invented a submarine

They should never be forgotten! Not what led to them nor the destruction they brought, to avoid a repetition of these events.
It just seems that Russia has learned different lessons than the rest of Europe...
That's nice that you feel good! You still come over as a grump.... :)
But there is no danger that one of us will try such a stunt, invading and occupying foreign lands is a sure sign of dictators....always has been!
Remembering them will.

....it's not so puzzling when you think about that they are the self declared "enemies of the West".
The West with its civic rights and of course it's capitalism!
When have leftists not wanted to destroy and overcome all that...it's only logical to close rank with those enemies, I guess.
That's where I don't get the AfD, on the other hand....who make a regular point of NOT being leftists!
Particulary this aspect has always been puzzling to me.

Usually "useful idiots" are the supporters of dictators in democratic countries.....notably the Stalinists in Weimar Germany or the modern leftists who still cheer for Putin in the ex-Sovietunion, Chavez in Venezuela or whoever takes over after Raul Castro in Cuba.
They try to influence the media and official opinion in their home countries with brushing over and apologize for crimes and failures of said dictatorships. So that they won't get disturbed...
Very "useful" for these autocrats...and of course totally idiotic!

Hmmmm.....then God had made his children so, isn't it?
I'm not an atheist but a naturalist, and the passion for life, which includes fighting and warring and loving, is part of our hereditary nature, totally natural so to speak, nothing sinful or wrong about it. We share that with all living things on this Earth.
Like everything with humans it can be abused of course and then it ends badly....but without these passions, this zest for life, we wouldn't had evolved either.
So....better fight the future fights not on battle fields but find a better, pragmatic, not so self-destrutive solution!

Crew members see the only submarine in the Polish Navy in a "deplorable technical condition". It is a "miracle" that it is still swimming. An expert accuses the government in Warsaw of negligence.

"The crew members of the only buoyant submarine in the Polish Navy call for help. In an anonymous open letter, the sailors warn that the submarine Orzeł (Adler) is "in a deplorable technical condition, and every journey can end with sinking and our death". In a recent maneuver there were problems with the surface, with the drive, the sonar, the communication and the armament. The sailors write: "The fact that the eagle is still swimming can only be described as a miracle." The 73-meter-long submarine, built in the Soviet Union in 1985, was put back into service five years ago "despite our protests"...."

Yes, as a Pole, I never smile, greet or talk to strangers.

Hmm....I googled that....that's what I found out about that:
"Anonymous hackers leaked the personal data of 1,000 Belarusian police officers in retaliation for a crackdown on street demonstrations against the veteran president, Alexander Lukashenko, as protesters staged another mass rally...."
theguardian.com/world/2020/sep/20/hackers-leak-data-on-1000-belarusian-police-officers
But where is the connection to Protasevich? Using the same social media can't be it...
On a side note....
"....The loyalty of the security forces is crucial to Lukashenko's ability to cling on to power after last month's presidential election, in which he claimed a landslide victory. His opponents say it was rigged to hand the former Soviet collective farm boss a sixth term...."
If that is the case, and said police forces are now allowed to kill protestors at will with deathly firearms I can understand why the opposition sees them as their enemies! I

Nah.....it started with a few youths spraying some critical slogans on a wall.
Not even that Assad could bear and now the whole country is destroyed, with millions dead, fleeing and homeless...do you wish Lukashenko would go so far? Laying the whole country to waste to keep himself and his clique on top?
You know that mocking politicians is a hobby and a duty for every citizen in the West? But somehow our "weak and spineless" West not only survives that but still flourishes, how come?
