History / Why did communism in Poland fail? [180]

Marx was a high level intellectual scholar, low level realist, low level pragmatist..
Herzl-like people are more realist, more pragmatist. They foresaw that Jews in Europe after all troubles for centuries had needed a land to be able to live safely.

I didn't say Marx was a believer of a religion, in Judaism or in any other religion. But, like all people, he too knew that there was a term zion-ism, even before Marx himself too, which hadn't become reality till Herzl-like people started to make it real due to the need.

While Marx-like high level intellectuals were busy with socialism in Germany, Europe and Russia, people like Herzl, also seeing experiences of Marx-likes, became more pragmatic and went for realizing Zion movement which I consider it was totally necessary. But, Marx-like people will be understood later, after we live economy crisis more and more.

Nobody can touch him then (if he has really HIV) unless some prisoners want to suicide together with him.

Grubas, if the claim is true (I doubt), then, it is too late.. Closing Poland borders won't be enoug, don't let Poles go out of Poland, either as there will be risk for other people.

Btw, about this AIDS/HIV, you know old theory that says it is a lab virus developed somewhere in West and with a collobration of Church, particularly Vatikan.. and spreaded to Africans first..

If this theory is true, then, classical saying is "what goes around comes around." Just hope that this theory isn't true. Or, Vatikan is in big sin.

There is a common confusion.. about learning to live with less.
Learning to live with less is not understood by Western Europeans who think living with less means somethings like living with one mobile phone instead of two mobile phone.. Problem of Western Europe is much bigger, in mentality, that they don't realize the basical needs and they are actually having big troubles about basical needs while they are able to have two mobile phones.. Strange, ironic contradiction in West Europe mentality.. Poland, being more experienced ones, don't need their absurd advices of Western Europeans. Western Europeans need to listen and take advices more from Poland when it comes to social economy.. (however, Turkmenistan is better than Poland too in social economy.)

There may be some few people who are doing some drug works for drug bosses who are mainly in the West. Why do you think drug field in Afganistan have enlarged to huge, 4 billion dollars? Those drug lords probably using Turkmenistan too as one of drug roads. Drug flow on Turkmenistan road is much less than all other roads, yes, including Turkey. But, hey, big drug lords are there in Europe..

Anyway, Turkmenistan is successful, more successful than countries with high GDP per capitas. Unless Poland does such things, if Poland copy asocial economies like UKi Greece, etc, riots in Poland too are unavoidable sooner or later.. People lacking basical needs have always had to riot..

Law / Poland on its way to Greece? [64]

What drug money? Turkmenistan has no drug business. You are probably confusing it with Afganistan where drug business gone upto 4 billion dollars after its invasion.

Maybe, wealth isn't shared equally in Turkmenistan either, but, what Turkmenistan has done is very importan, they gave basical needs to its all people for free or almost for free and all these are financed by their natural resources, in other words, it can be considered as resource share.. What Turkmenistan done about the resources (sharing with its folks by giving basical needs for free) is ahead of most of countries in the world. Turkmenistan is socially 1st world country. If Poland too does the same, Poland will be much better than Turkmenistan as there is industry also in Poland.

People in Turkmenistan maybe are unable to buy plasma TVs, but, their living conditions are much better than people in countries with 20-40,000 dollars income per person who can buy plasma tv easily.. With an 50 dollars a month, you can live comfortably in Turkmenistan. What will you do with more money if your health care, electricity, gas, housing like basical needs are for free or almost for free.. People in high GDP per person countries are having luxury things, but, they are also paying high costs even to basical needs. What Turkmenistan lack is a little more scientific and technological works.. What high GDP per person countries lack is social life, social economy that already exists in Turkmenistan..

So, Poland is on its way to Greece?
Maybe, they are changing positions.

Ps: Seanus, I haven't agreed about such things showing real wealth, either. But, in last decade or two, whoever I have talked with on the net or off the net showed me this GDP per person data.. So, people have flowed to those countries following this data GDP per capita.. When I said them Turkmenistan with 5-6000 dollars per capita is actually richer than most of those countries with more than 20,000 dollars per capita and they had laughed..

What happened to you people? Till a year ago or two, everybody had been giving GDP per capita or income per person to show the wealth of countries:

Looking at here, as of 2010,

Greece: 28,000 dollars
Poland: 19,000 dollars
(in that list, Poland is poorer than almost all of old EU countries.)

History / Why did communism in Poland fail? [180]

Zionism isn't a new thing in its normal meaning. This word zionism is said to appeare first time in a work of Iranian Jew historian in 11th century. Zionism in early days was not more than the hajj-ism which is like Mekka hajj-ism of muslims, St Mariam hajj-ism of Catholics, etc. Religious Jews in old days were desiring to visit Zion hill in Jerusalem and this is normal. Those who were desiring Zion hill was being called zion-ists. Its meaning was twisted later in last century when some wealthy Jews were interested in really buying Zion hill and its around. No need to blame. In history, many land buy and sell happened many times. This is just one of them. Marx of course knew zionism, but, since he is a respected man, a science scholar, he didn't mention such things clearly not to enter unnecessary debates.

Law / Poland on its way to Greece? [64]

Poland is poorer than most of EU countries, so, Poland that has already been in crisis won't feel a new crisis. Before Poland, there are other countries such as Ireland, Spain, Italy, UK, Portugal, etc etc whose debts ratio to GDP are big.. But, if Poland falls in crisis, it is not saved like Greece who were given money and Spain and Italy whose government bonds are being bought by Europe Central bank now.

There must be something old tradition/belief with this, flat-back head, still alive in rural regions. Same here in rural regions in central Turkey. I remember old days in the village when heads of small babies were wrapped by some clothes etc to make backs of their heads flat. I thought it was an old Turkic tradition. Now, I see it is also done in Poland.

By the way, the only Pole I met had a nose with a small curve. I said her she had a curved nose, and she got angry at me. (I thought I was complimenting.)

News / Andrzej Lepper committed suicide [98]

Lepper's word, "how can you rape a prostitute?", was not a question probably, (was it?) but, it was probably for defencing his party member, a MP, against slanderings. Maybe, that party friend became with a prostitute in Belgium, and that was bad enough for Polish conservative community.. But, I guess, even Polish conservative community laughed at the rape allegation of a prostitute..

Having said this, if Leppek said this "how can you rape a prostitute?" as a question really, then, it is much more important than the rape, etc..

ps: btw, isn't this rape alleagation, that guy tried to have sex without condom, similar to J. Assange case in that 2nd woman with name Sophia claimed same? JonnyM, you should call Assange too as vile individual.

News / Polish flag was changed by taking the coat of arms? [48]


Meaning of these colors in the flags are much earlier than this, as I mentioned above. But, the use of red and white in Poland flag officially can be like that mentioned above in the article about the near history.

Btw, the use of the eagle in the flags is relatively newer thing than the symbol (white-red-blue-etc, but, these colors symbolizes some objects as I mentioned above.) Use of eagle dates back to Sumerians-Hittites en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-headed_eagle which have also been used many countries in the past. So, eagle, flower etc like objects can be considered as more modern symbols of the time comparing abstract geometrical symbols including the colors which symbolizes planet, star, sky, earth, etc.

But, in today world, there is a trend toward abstract-life style. So, red-white flag without eagle fits this trend. But, military flags prefer some wildy signs. So, if a war happens, polish flag with eagle can be seen more everywhere in Poland.

Lets look at the comment, above, of a newspaper back in 2005 who made fun of Lepper then. What did Lepper say? He said: "How can you rape a prostitute?" He is wrong of course... but, existence of prostitutehood is a rape itself to a community and this isn't mentioned by anyone including that newspaper who made fun of this word of Lepper.. It is not normal to hear a rape alleagation from a prostitutes who accept even to be raped, for money.. So, she was most likely paid to do this rape allegation against a member of Leppek's party.. While this is so, it won't be surprise if allegations about Lepper too are slanderings as well.

Churches, mosques, etc.. When they put their noses into "this world" things, confusions are unavoidable. They need to focus themselves more about "next world" etc things.. Churches, mosques, etc already completed their missions about "this world", said their words about this world. But, they still want to play major role in "this world" rules, laws, etc and we know why ..

Lets be honest.. These religion institutes follow the science, don't they? Yes, so. So, when an invention in science is made, then, we hear them, their opinions of religious scholars. For example, condom was invented long time ago, but, the church said ok to it just a few months ago.. So, the science is leader and it doesn't need approval of religious institutions anymore. Today is not same as centuries ago when there was no birth control, when it wasn't known when the embrio becomes a new life, etc etc. You'll tell Church or mosque or whatever, for ex, that after 22 weeks, risk for woman is more.. then, this will be approved by church/mosque/etc too? why necessary? isn't it enough to hear it from science only? It must be.. Maybe, those religious scholars, priests, imams, etc should learn science first and they themselves should discover or invent and then, we can listen to them too.. While there are experts, knowledgable people in such "this world" things, listening to those religious scholars on such this world things including abortion is nonsense.. Anyway. This abortion thing decision should be left to women only and I guess scientists including social scientists will agree in this with me.

News / Andrzej Lepper committed suicide [98]

Ok, I read. But, it still doesn't prove it was suicide. It makes clear only how he died. My mentioning his not killing himself by a gun is about the probability of killing by someone/s else more than by himself. At least, if his money problem was the real reason, the probability of using the gun increases. When it is hanging, it smells more about honor killings, either by himself or, most likely, by someone/s else or by some to give a message to someones. Reading post of Gumishu above, rape pill or sleep-making-pill, etc, it looks like more about honor killing by giving pills first etc. Since it is called rape-pill instead of sleep-drug-pill, attentions are focused onto somethings in his past.

I read this, written in 2005:

europeanvoice.com/article/imported/an-example-of-british-humour/53805.aspx

where it says:

Polish humour? The Belgian authorities are investigating an allegation of rape against Bogdan Golik, a 42-year-old Polish MEP who is a member of the Self-Defence Party. A prostitute alleges that he forced her to have unprotected sex.

The MEP denies her version of events, which are supposed to have taken place at his Brussels apartment in rue Pascale.
Put aside such questions as why a veterinary doctor would be so stupid, or whether this act of Self-Defence will be criticised by the ultra-Catholic League of Polish Families (which might approve of the not-using-a-condom bit). The man must be assumed to be innocent until proven guilty - which would entail lifting his Parliamentary immunity. Instead contemplate the question posed by Andrzej Lepper, Golik's party leader: "How can you rape a prostitute?" Verdict: not funny.

A prostitute claimed that he (a party member of Lepper's party) forced her to have unprotected sex... ? This isn't foreigner to people, isn't it? (my comment: prostitute was probably paid by someone/s else then.)

It is interesting not to see any cross sign in the flag of Poland which is said to be one of most conservative Christian countries.


In its simplest meaning, it is so. But, my guess is the white is actually color of the moon (silvershine looks white in the dark night) and the red is the color of the sun. So, these colors are colors of old pagan religions with moon god, sun god, sky god (blue), earth god, etc. etc. We can see these in turkis flag, actually, dates back more than 2000 years when it was pagan religion:

The crescent moon and star were holy symbols (tengri pagan religion of turks) for pre-Islamic Turkic tribes, while red was the cardinal colour for west (sunset) in ancient Turkic culture. In Turkish tradition, red also represents hegemony, while white represents power, justice, exaltation and purity. (three-crescent on blue ground also used, and the blue represents sky god there.) (not saying everythings were copied from turkic culture. it just preserved old things, old beliefs, religions, cultures simply more, in abstract forms.)

Anyway. So, white represents moon/crescendent and red represents the sun (it is seen red during the sunrise and during the sunset.). Ancient things. Pagan beliefs are still alive and we see this in the colors of flags of everywhere including the western countries.

"Old fashined" family system is a little problematic system as it is patriarchial system which isn't natural really. Nest is made by female. So, leave such decisions including abortion to females. It is their bodies anyway that will take the risk. If we men were the ones who become pregnants, would you let them women decide on us? Definitely not. So, let them women decide themselves and make their own laws about abortion too.

It looks like not a suicide.
I read the page you gave its link above, through google translator, and it mentions a land scandal, but, it might be another irrelevant reasoning.

Through google translator, it is not so clear. Does it imply that there was a serious problem between J. Kaczynski and him? (if so, it seems that brother twin too is on political target.?)
