Love / Do women like strong men in Poland ? [39]

I used to userd to see hand kissing amongst the Polish community in England when I was a little boy.
I have never seen it since and most of those hand kissers are probably dead now.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


But you are a hypocrite, which is why my attitude to you has changed.
The majority of Jews refused to assimilate.


What the hell does that matter when it is a question of survival?
Some Jews chose wisely and shunned their "Birth Identity"(whatever that is!)


Do you know that as a fact?
Jews were welcomed to Poland when the rest of Europe rejected them.
The distrust of Jews came much later and all caused by Jewish behaviour, lack of respect and being introspective.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


Powerless and weak they may be.But they are still disgusting.
I get get your point though.


Of course I have decency in me!
I have nothing against
Jews most Jews that I have known I have loved.
My son in law runs a security agency his partner is a Jew and most of their clients are Jewish.


I did not.
I said that they caused many of their own problems.
That is not the same thing at all!
Don't start turning into Pawian.....


A Great post! Which throws up the real debate!

You obviously don't know as much about the Brirish as you you think you know.


Me too.... On almost every quiet street corner......
Poles cannot teach Brits anything about drinking alcohol.
Poles are second only to Russians on the alcoholic charts.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


Did I say that?
No, of course I did not.
Jews caused the dislike of Jews.
Hatred of Jews is at another level.
And wanting to kill Jews is at a higher level still.

@pawian

Don't you ever try to put such disgusting words into my mouth again, you absolute maggot!

I thought of you as a leftie but a reasonable guy.
That post of yours made me feel sick.

Travel / Is Poland a popular tourist destination for Swedes? [20]


Of course!
Because in their countries it is too expensive!

Are all Russians as ill.educated and dim as you?

They probably are, if they had been more intelligent they would never have invaded Ukraine.

Please keep to the topic of the thread

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


And so many also refused to even assimilate.
That is at the root of the Jewish problem.
Jews did not have to convert in Europe, but some degree of assimilation was required.However, too few Jews did and they caused their own problems.

My view may not be popular these days, but it is the truth.
Jews caused their own problems.

Travel / Is Poland a popular tourist destination for Swedes? [20]


Not unfair at all.
Scandinavians have the same love of alcohol as Brits,Germans and Dutch do, unfortunately for them, it is very expensive at home.
So when they visit countries like.Poland, they sometimes go a little bit bonkers.
Lyzko, you have a very poor understanding of Europeans and need to book some more holidays here and remove your blinkered American sunglasses!

He offers nothing Polish to a Polish forum....it is all about Serbia, a tiny and recently evil Balkan state that is irrelevant to Poles and most Europeans.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


Did I say that?
No, I did not.
But you are a bit like Pawian, you are, to a lesser degree, narrow minded.
The Jews did things, some unintetionaly and others deliberately that alienated them to Poles.
The lack of assimilation was the big one.
Educated Jews did assimilate in their droves.
But the uneducated poorer masses caused the main problem.
And that bad feeling against Jews then fed back and hurt the assimilated Jews.
There is no right and wrong here.
This was a huge misunderstanding between two culrures.


Again,childish comment without a true appreciation of history.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


You may well have some cause for concern in what you say.
But it is your fervour and hatred of these Poles that sticks in my craw.
Can you really not be open minded enough to see both sides?
I don't think there was anyone to blame for the Polish/Jewish enmity.
It just evolved from occurrences and some actions from both sides.
Playing the blame game is just childish.

Law / Why is Poland importing so much coal? [76]


You have a very narrow minded point of view.
What may be true in Poland does not necessarily translate well to other countries.
Be more open minded about right wing politics.
I am not even sure that I would label PIS as purely right wing.
There is a communistic totalitarian element to them too.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]


You are the same as the leftists in the UK or USA.
You have nothing but hatred of your own countries past.
I get criticism of aspects of your countries history.
But to defame your own country, be it Poland, UK or USA would generally be described as treason.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]


Like British cuisine.
Anything that comes from the main inhabitants of their country.
Goulash is incorporated into Polish cuisine but we all know that it is not a traditional Polish dish.Same as Jewish cuisine.
Or Indian cuisine in Britain that was devised in Britain and is now a very popular part of British cuisine, but is still not traditional.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]


A good point.
But either way, it is not traditional Polish cuisine.

That is all well and good but Biden is not venerable...he is barely coherent!

He needs to stand down as he suffers from dementia.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]


That's like saying that some Indian Currys are traditional British cuisine, because they were invented in Britain!
Yes they may be part of our current cuisine, but, just like the Jewish food, they are not traditional.
Do you really not see the subtle difference?

That's as maybe.
But it is still not Polish Cuisine.

@Paulina
You make some very good points as you always do.
But I am sorry, Polish Jewish cuisine, for me, is just that.
Very good food but Polish Jewish.
Not Polish.

Sugar is bad for you, we all know that.
Vinegar has proven itself to be an effective deterrent to the detrimental effects of sugar.
You know nothing Pawian.

Food / Polish Christmas Eve Dinner recipes [84]


Accepted by some as Polish cuisine.
But it is not Polish......
You can turn it around as much as you want, but this is Jewish cuisine.
I'm fine with that.
Even Polish Jewish cuisine.
But don't try to tell me that the pics Pawian posted were of traditional Polish food.
