Polonia / Poland and France cultures are similar [112]

That Poland got attacked is not the country's fault, of course not.

Thank you, if you didn't know it is a very important question among Poles.

You start to sound like Crowie...get a grip man!

Well sorry but that is reality, among people my friend who ordered a new computer from germany got the news that it will take twice more time before it comes to Norway becaouse of safety regulations if the transport was done by Poles....

It is a fact it's not my fault!

Who was the third one?

Nazi controlled Slovakia

You're telling me that the Polish communists after the war argued that the attack on Poland was the fault of the pre-war government? Do you have links? I never heard about that.

Sorry I don't have links my source is my grandmother, and if it is any sources on the internet it is most likely written in Polish.

Tho I can try to find it somewhere

It means that it wasn't a fair fight, not a one vs one (it was even 3 vs one)
It means that if it was anyone in the world nobody would stand against it unless you had god powers or something. and that is my point! That Poland itself is blameless for what happened becaouse then the theory of communist Poles that it was all becaouse of the government at that time won't count!

The fact is POLAND did NOT surrender! It continued her struggle!
France capitulated!
The mistake is that everyone is thinking that the surrender of Warsaw is the surrender of Poland...

The army didn't get crushed by the Germans alone and about crushing. how come that not even half of the Polish army died or surrendered? Crushing victory hard to say

The poles and french both surrendered to the germans in WW2

Yeah sure and Polish cavalry charges german Panzerkampfwagens with lances when they had anti-tank guns. They all pick strawberry's and can't shower and what else? Yes they steal also! Your information on moronic Germanic western propaganda is outstanding...

As a matter of fact, Poles formally never surrendered

Everyone who knows what to read and how knows that.

Polish are still to have, sexual/racial revolution

I am having problems with understanding racial revolution...
1. Poland as I remember didn't ever have slaves
2. Most Poles who think of Polish nationality thinks patriotic about it not nationalisticly
3. If you knew about all the small minorities that settled in Poland then you wouldn't have written it.
4. racial do you really mean human races and etc and that Poles should look upon Africans as human beeings and not dark skinned and about Asians as human beeings and not as muslim or yellow coloured? Sorry I am no communist I don't think every human is IDENTICAL everyone is different even the few Luxembourgers are different! Everyone is different! Either it be skin, religion, tounge or manners. Everyone is different so get a grip!

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [901]

PolishBlood,
Excaclty, but the cavalkry was still the most popular choice in public and among Generals, so it's hard to think that Poland would buy like 4 k airplanes. 1,5 k would even be enough I say.

History / Have Poles blood on their hands? :) [496]

so it is true that the poles like to throw a rock and hide their hands?
Poles killed 1,600 Jews in the north-eastern village of Jedwabne in 1941a and all the massacres had previously been blamed on Nazi troops

Well even if Jedwabne is true I hardly accept it as any Ak operation nor Polish people doing or anything. I would more say that it was Jedwabne locals who did it, right? If it was like 10k more stories in different places then that's a different sotry but their not?

Life / Things that annoy you in Poland. [114]

How many people die each year on Polish roads - does anybody know what the stats are?

Oh my I remember allways when I am at my dad's work. Allways some cars crashing becaouse it's a cross. when you hear the iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii from the halting then everyone Oooooooo! Then it's a crash or not. If not then everyone ooooh. But if it is then OH YEAH!

Sons of ******* they deserve a crash in a while :D (Ofcourse if we hear that someone died later we all feel sorry for her/him.

1. Worst thing ever! When I was born in Norway I got my personal number and final. While in Poland I don't get in while I am born and I got to get loads of numbers for everything and nothing!

History / WWII - who really was the first to help Poland? [901]

I am here ;)

Easy as it is, everyone else started the conflicts. Blood which was flooding wasn't our fault since it was mostly because of local conflicts or invasion of Poland (later also Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine and German settlements & city's)

We are innocent, we live free now. We are allied with almost all of Europe except Sweden and some minor countries.

If ye start talking about how Ruthinians were treated by nobles then I ask you did a majority of the people or the king make any laws or anything which would legally accept it? Was it popular? Rather not...

and those camps... do you really think that second republic of Poland wanted to exterminate other minorities in Poland? Or was it maybe only the right winged? Who is who? and what it what?

I have no grudge to people who lives in those countries today, I forgive their past which their naturally proud of. Even those Ukrainians with whole that Bandera race... people! Did they have their Pilsudski? Did they have their Kazimierz Wielki? Did they have their Sobieski? They almost have nothing! I feel pity for them.

Germans... yes Germans living in the times before now were specially almost always anti-Polish in general and the Poles felt it! some even feel it today but I forgive today's Germans and other nations. It's not the people's fault it's the extremists fault, the Nazis, the imperialists, the Prussian like guys, communists or other lunatics (Mujahedins for instance)! They don't know what they did and are doing

On the other hand if you were to translate the English way of saying "Hunny" to your gf or bf ... that would sound very weird in Polish

Miodeczko? Miodzio? Miódku? Use your imagination :=)

News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

So you consider a traitor of your country a German while a defender of your country as a "foreigner" (Even if he had lived there some many years and felt German) would never be German?

Kosciuszko was an American & Pole :)
I am Norwegian while I have a Polish parent since ive lived here (Norway) and I consider this my home!

Take an example of a wolf flock

For you it would been strange that an group of 3 white wolfs would be angry at an other white wolf (Wich was in their group but betrayed them)

While you would also see it as uncorrect for a Grey wolf joining the flock after it had saved one of the flocks puppets (Regardless of what they call themselfs) You see where I am going?

Well...isn't it???
You can change your pass or your name...but not your ethnic, your blood, your heritage!

BB would you consider a Communistic "German" shooting civilians in Berlin or a Turk defending thoose civilians yelling "For Germany!"

Who would be more German in your eyes?

Even blood can descive

Language / Polish or any Slavic language key to any other Slavic languages? [126]

The truth is that Poles *think* they understand Czech when in reality they haven't got a clue.

I really can't see the sense of this, Poles generally like Czechs better then any other nation except for Hungarians& Slovaks and some others but still Czechs are funny! Fun amuses everyone! Don't you find it amusing listening to Polish language?

Look at this one! Somewhere in it he says something about a Czech at 3.21

News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

BB understand this
Most Germans and Germanic countries consider blood as most important and language (Nationalism) as placing national identity

Most Poles place fighting/praising/love for their country (Patriotism) as national identity

So both may have been right but in their own eyes, the other is wrong. Also it is important to remember that he didn't live after the French revolution

So everyone is correct from their point of view unless you think history :)

Genealogy / I'm polish and have a darker complexion - WHY? [78]

Dark skinned" Poles are not necessary mixed with anything (especially Central Americans ). Damn, we're not Norwegians...

actualy most sami lives in Oslo and there has been Tater/gypsies here too
Also from the 70's an huge immigration from the middle-east. Now Poles "invades" Norway too :)

Also Sweeds&Danes&Norwegians are used to mix with each other :)

But in general I got your point tho ;)

Life / Poland's National Anthem "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego" (download mp3) [49]

Oh man i envy you Poles your anthem ,it's so lively and celebrative. The one we have in Norway fits more in a funeral in my opinion.

I could allmost say the same, tho "Ja vi elsker dette landet" isn't maybe funeral but more like pasifistic opera thing

Off-Topic / What's your connection with Poland? Penpals. [512]

Life / Reasons for moving to Poland [291]

British doctors very good? that's a good one! Last year when i've had pneumonia and was coughing my guts out, one of the symptoms was that i was very weak and dizzy. I was told to lie down and take paracetamol

WTH? You could get a pracetamol?! I just have to drink water and wait until it's over!
I am starting to think their are shortages of medicine in Norway... I should move to Poland

Also ive have been reading some of this, main problem for many western people in Poland is the thing of not funding a minority. Here in Norway there are organized minorities (Church etc) or even events! I bet you could sample up a bunch of Irish people toghether, and they wouldn't mind it :)

History / Poles in the Napoleonic era [224]

BACK TO THE TOPIC!
What colours did the formation use on their flag and how did the Poland-Lithuanian Republic of both Nations flag look like?

Using lances was popular but that was not until lances from Austrian army men was captured.
An interessting info for our "Tyske" friend. The German Ulans where do they originate from? (Or was it Uhlans?)

3. Palac kultury

History / Why will Poland always be the puppet of America? [159]

Hmmmmmmmm, if it was about Norway for instence it would been rational since it has a long coastline. But if you haven't NOTICED Poland allmost borders with other countries through land ONLY. Sweden won't do any new deluge so only reason to have a strong navy = to invade Petersburg. Aircraft carriers? Poland needs none of em since it has airforce bases and there are no Polish colonies... Where is the Army list (LAND) btw I really wonder why you didn't take that one up.
