UK, Ireland / Ireland and Poland - ways of struggling for independence [43]


You were talking about the 1918 rebellion, were you not?

And what exactly is British? It would include the Irish, Scots, English and Welsh. Because Britain includes the Greater and Lesser Britain as well all the other Islands that make up the British Isles.

Britain is a geographic term, it would be more accurate to refer to the English and the Scottish, but now we get into tribes rather the them Brits and us. But it looks like the Brits (Dal Riata) invaded Ireland 1300 years ago, according to this map



I suggest you stick to the more recent past,

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]


Thats wrong.The US emphasises ballistic defense because, recently, that's the only sort of weapon that has been used against it. It can shoot down aircraft very effectively, but expensively.

Poland's Patriot system is fundamentally different in that the SkyCeptor missile (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David%27s_Sling) is cheap enough to be used against ALL targets.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]


Patriot is primarly an anti-aircraft system, its anti- ballistic functions are secondary (only for the US Army). The US uses THAAD for ballistic missile defence.

Poland need it to defend its air bases, without it there will be no Polish airforce in Poland, they will have to move to Germany or be destroyed on the ground.

This alone is reason to buy Patriot (or MEADS). The Israeli Skyceptors may well prove effective against Russian missiles, but the alternative of accepting defeat and certain nuclear obliteration isnt acceptable to Poles.

"That means he'll have more missles to counter the patriot system."
He has already installed as many nuclear missiles as he can\wants, but he's limited by cost and treaty agreements.

"happens to be a sarmat"
Thats a ICBM not the short range missiles in Kaliningrad. Whether is exists is doubtful


If you insist on spouting pure unadulterated Kremlin propaganda then you are a Kremlin Tool, no matter where you claim to be born.

Traitor or a Kremlin Troll, same thing.


Nope, you are not Polish.

"On February 15, 1991, President George H. W. Bush "
27 years of development makes a lot of difference.

Patriot will be part of a three layer air defense, primaryly against aircraft. This is why you Russians hate it so much your 1960's tech aircraft will be fecked, it IS a major step forward for Poland. Poles, Poles who live here, will happly pay $167 for improving security.

BTW, another follow on order for more Patriots is incoming. And a F-35 order will probably happen.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]


Its called Patriot, but the missiles, radar and command and control system is generations ahead from the Saudi system, which is quite old now. Sky Cepter could be a game changer from the cost point of view.


Right, the Russians have nuclear milles on Polands borders, aimed at Warsaw. So **** Off.


You spout Russian propaganda, obviously you are a hostile . **** Off Russian.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [943]


You obviously don't understand what Patriot is or is capable of. Its a long and medium range anti-aircraft misssile defense sytem with some capablities of destroying incoming ballistic missiles.

Long range is around 300km. As such its useless at defending any other country than Poland. Its may be able to shootdown Russian missiles during launch phase from Kaliningrad but Iskander has a range of 500km and will be aimed squarely at Poland not America.

Patriot is therefore very much a battlefield defense system as it would protect Poland's army and more importantly its cites and airfileds against EXISTING nuclear missiles aimed at Poland today.

As for antitank missiles, Poland has Rosomak IFV's many equiped with Spike LR anti-tank missiles, plus a planned purchase of large amounts of anti-tank weapons of various sorts to add to the thousands of Spike ATM's they already possess.

He's got a hunting license but wants this for fun.

The point is that if people want these sort of weapons, with effort they can get them. Huntering clubs welcome members.

Ditto pistols, you need a license, but you can get them.

5000pl looks reasonable for a fully accessorised model, I suppose.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]


I think you should understand that gun ownership is not a right wing thing outside the USA. And that criminals in Europe don't use guns to commit petty crimes, they are generally used to murder family members or criminal enemies.

So the opportunity to use a gun in self defense doesn't exist, hence the link between self defense and freedom and politics doesn't exist.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]


Maybe you should question why you think gun ownership is a right wing, nationalistic issue -outside of the USA.

Its not a party or political issue. There is no connection between a desire to own guns and the party you vote for. I wouldn't vote either ways for any party based on their support for gun laws, there isnt any party thats has ever made it an issue. Nationalist parties in the Uk don't have pro-gun policies, they have no policies on about guns whatsoever.

Committed Polish Nationalists will volunteer for the Territorials, they'll get access to assault rifles, anti-tank, heavy machine guns and training. WTF is the point of a 'freedom' hand gun when you need all that to defend your country?

They don't cost the British taxpayer anything, they swapped their lands and assets for a stable income from the government two hundred years ago. The income from the Crown Estates exceeds the amount the government gives to the Royal family.

Thats ignoring the income they generate, probably £250million per year.


Right... I've seen a Chimp's tea party and that was more civilised than the USA.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]


What exactly would the purpose of owning a gun be? Hunting, sure, my Polish family has three rifles and two shot guns.

Even though they are entitled to own handguns they see no point, using it would require finding a criminal and killing him/her in cold blood. Killing a unarmed petty thief will land you in jail for murder. My family are right wing nationalistic gun owners who view the idea that a gun is needed for self defense as utterly ridiculous.

Plus of course you'd have to make your own black powder (do-able) and ammunition (much-much harder)

You think police in the UK are armed? If even the police don't need firearms or bullet proof vests to deal with criminals,maybe it really isn't an issue?

Just to emphasise the point, there is no where is the whole of the UK where you or I could go and be robbed at gun point, day or night.
