History / Why is Poland weaker than Russia? [390]

didn't kill close to 25 thousand the day before and deported 125,000 opponents

Maybe even blankets contaminated with smallpox given to Tatars was little bit overkill?

Budapest memorandum

By the way, is there anything in this memorandum that may declare null and void the right of self-determination of population of Crimean republic?

What about Tver then and Moscow.

Come and get it, if you can.

Hard to say that you never tried, by the way.

Well, Be as it may but in that case you should simply return Smolensk to Poland. Not to mention Konigsberg oblast.

What about Pozen, Breslau, Danzig, Stettin? And Konigsberg should then go to a more rightful owner.

Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,

Russia is a pusher and Germany is the addict (Russian gas) not really a partnership.

So, 3+ times more expensive LNG from US will cause much less addiction? ;)

The Russian state is simply not a reliable partner and cannot be counted on to honor its word.

Hm. Russia can be reliable partner for Germany, but not for Poland. Probably, problem is in Germany in that case. ;)

Your trust or mistrust (if you a real and not a "plastic" Pole) is not a problem of Russia, of course. And it is not a problem at all if you reside somewhere in Canada or UK and not interested in Polish people prosperity.

History / Why is Poland weaker than Russia? [390]

Crimea? Any fool with a map could see that it's a useless white elephant without a secure water supply which only Ukraine can deliver, so...

Crimean oblast was transferred from Russian Federation to Ukrainian SSR by Khruschev in 1954. And it was made with violation of Constitution (approved by Chairman Board of Supreme Council while by Constitution any territorial changes must get approval of whole Supreme Council). There was post-factum approval of Supreme Council that still leave whole thing questionable.

As for City of Sevastopol - it was never transferred to Ukrainian SSR and was a city with direct subordination to Union (i.e. on same scale as Ukrainian SSR itself). It was "forgotten" once Ukraine get independency and local nationalists started to grab everything they can (so later they begging that they need foreign financial help for safe utilisation of huge amounts of outdated artillery shells in a army warehouses they quickly declared property of Ukraine). Status of Sevastopol was questionable until 2014.

If you are interested which referendums was in Crimea in beginning of 1990's and how their results was finally ignored by ukrainian nationalistic politicians - you have to google little bit. But referendum of 2014 sorted it out.

Concerning usefulness - Sevastopol is the only really good navy base on this side of Black Sea, and key to defense of Southern Russia from any military threats from Black Sea..

It was under foreign military occupation when the 'referendum' was carried out...

There was personnel of russian navy base that was stationed there on a legal basis. And not a single round was shot in process.

Eastern Ukraine? Essentially useless land with the least social capital in the country?

Eastern Ukraine, AKA Novorossia is again Russian land with predominantly russian population that was de-facto secessed after german occupation and transferred to a newly created ukrainian republic. Also, far from "historical ukrainian lands".

No brainwashing is ever needed

For those who sucked this idea with a mother's milk - maybe. ;) So, land with such desperate population is not very much valuable for Russia...

History / Why is Poland weaker than Russia? [390]

Can you rephrase the last two sentences

Well... Poles and baltic states population constantly told that russians are coming. But Russians should have something there to be valuable enough, to come for it and accept all possible consequences. What it can be, which very valuable resource can attract russians in baltics and Poland? Land with brainwashed population? I doubt that. There is abundant of unused land in Russia. It is even given away in some far east and northwest regions to anyone who will start to use it for some lawful economical activity (or will build house and settle there). Apples? I doubt, because after start of "counter-sanctions", local retailers quickly switched to local supply and there is no more happy pigs eating russian apples while polish apples occupy supermarket shelves. Potatos? I doubt it even more. Industrial products? Well, in the past there was some shipyards that could be really useful. But now it may be easier to start new ones from scratch somewhere else.

The only thing that REALLY may be interesting is safety from surprise nuclear attack from nearby bases with very short missile flight time. And while there is governments that start every talk with a sentence mentioning something "euroatlantic" and begging for more foreign troops and weapons on their soil - it MAY BE much more reliable to take a control over that territory to avoid deadly surprises originating from other side of Atlantic but with Poles or Latvians framed to accept revenge.

Can you remember how upset was NATO officials once Putin told that not only attacking bases will be targets for responce, but "centers of decision making" will be targeted as well?

Poland WANTS the US protection

Was there any referendum or something similar about this?

As I can see, anyone who come into power in Poland immediately forget that he/she must care about interests of Polish people and start to work for anglos.

For now, Poland is set up to be a "buffer state" to be contaminated by radioactive isotopes in case of Russian invasion to a Western Europe. Place where tactical nuclear warheads can be used without doubts. Even retired Polish generals openly talking about this stuff.

The only thing that may present some interest for Russians in Poland and Baltic states is a GUARANTEED ABSENCE OF HOSTILE MILITARY BASES OF THIRD COUNTRIES. Anything else is abundant in Russia.

No, thank you. Governments of that "paper tigers" compete who is barking to Russia louder, looking to a master on other side of Atlantic, so there is THREE potential sources of conflict, while current NS route have ZERO.

I'm a pacifist, and I don't want to be a part of country like USA or Russia.

Based on this and other sentences in your posts, looks like you are a bit stupid, read a lot of wrong books and (probably) have even more brainless tutor (probably with non-traditional sexual orientation). ;)

What you cannot say in Russia that give you a feeling that there is "no freedom of speech at all"?

A sick experiment with some of the highest living standards in the world - certainly much higher than in Russia

Now compare national debt of Russia and national debts of parts of "sick experiment". If Russia will get somewhere and spend 26,556€ per person (current stare of finnish debt) on a infrastructure and public utilities, it will be quite a nice place to live. Especially central and northeastern regions, that is already not so bad...

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [932]

Know anyone who has actually fought there?

Yes. Many. Yes.

My gf is born and grown in Torez, so while I'm in Russia, I often used (and abused) to put together that endless "humanitarian aid" boxes for friends and relatives that currently live in Donetsk and Torez. And someone come from there time to time, so I can ask live people about what is really happening.

So, while you are trying to make lives of people in Donbass as worse as you can, we counteract. And God will sort it out later, who was right. God is not a stupid, and not prone to be fooled by propaganda. Also, your wishes to other people will be taken into account.

but his participation would have exposed

If my grandmother would have penis, she would be my grandfather. ;)

Electoral base of Navalny and Sobchak is really the same people. If Navalny would participate - he would split current support of Sobchak in half, and maybe cut another percent or two total from other "minors". But Navalny will not participate in a foreseeable future - due to a well known legal reason.

There was no active genocide against the Crimeans for instance.

So, they was need to wait while someone will start to kill russians that lived in Crimea for generations? Can you remember how and at what time Crimea, Donbass and Odessa became a parts of territory that became Ukraine after collapse of USSR?

Many people in Donbass now think that best idea was follow Crimea immediately and return to Russia, saying f*ck to Lenin and their 1918 decree.

Yet Putin found it necessary to ban the most important opposition leader before the election.

Names, please.
But please do not include Navalny. This is not even a clown, and it will never be elected public politician. Just a little thief that tried to steal more than they was able to carry, and once been caught started to play corruption fighter.

PS: Looks like worst scenario is active. Syrian T-4 airbase on the east of Homs province just attacked by missiles.

Russia broke with the ultimate taboo in European foreign policy by redrawing the borders by force.

Why threat to albanians in Kosovo was good reason to break "ultimate taboo" to change borders by force, and threat to russian population in Crimea (that voted to be independent from nationalistic Ukraine at least twice - March 27, 1994 - ignored by Kiev, and Mar 16, 2014) is becoming not a good reason to change borders by referendum?

Is Russia bombed Kiev just like NATO bombed Belgrad to enforce this change of borders? Was there any casualties (other than burning asses of bandera-prayers) during this process?

because the predictable collapse of the system

What collapse do you mean? Russia now is much more stable even than 10 years before. Sanctions now cause inconvenience and decrease economic growth, but pose no threat to system. Political opposition - pure clowns.

Russia will invade 5 minutes later

I see 3 sentences and 3 lies.
- Can you provide any credible reason for invasion? Natural resources - no. Routes to lay pipelines to major consumers of hydrocarbons - again no, already laid in Baltic. Agricultural land - there's plenty to put to good use in Russia itself. Sentiments - purely negative. What Poland have to approve possible losses during invasion? Other than moral obligation to put mentally ill neighbour to a good clinic, before it harmed itself and to other neithbours? ;)

- Can you provide at least 5 examples of agreements that Russia broke? There is hundreds of international agreements that Russia sign every year, and should be no problem to list 5 that was broken, if they really broke them all.

- People wish to live happily and to feel that their childs is safe. In Poland, in Russia, in US - everywhere. But US have a system of domination for a small group, not whole nation. And that group is openly say that Earth is overpopulated, and build shelters to survive possible global disaster and keep science knowledge and organisation. Are you sure that world war will not be started by this group to be further masters on the Earth that is liberated from burden of extra population, and huge debts, that masons make during last century?

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [932]

because of the past but also because of Putin.

Putin is the best leader that Russians can afford now. He provides stability and slow but steady progress. It is quite liberal, compared to many western politicians - there is some media outlets like Echo of Moscow or Silver Rain that blame everything that they see around - but nobody tries to shut it up or cut their access to broadcasting resources (like RT in US or UK). Open extremism is prosecuted immediately, at the same time. Putin is really expensive guy, even US Federal Reserve cannot print enough dollars to buy them (anathema!). And, last but not least, any competitors on a last elections was dwarfs, compared to Putin, in almost all aspects.

Now about relation between Poland and Russia. Let's compare Finland and Poland - both was de-facto vassal states in Russian Empire, both secessed shortly after Nov'1917, when long run of German support for marxist radicals in Russia ended with a communistic revolt and put Russia into a hell of civil war, that was complemented by intervention of foreign military forces. Germany neutralised their current opponent - and created something else, much worse to them as history shown later. Jews, that was somewhat oppressed in russian empire come to full power - and shown the world how things can go wrong.

Finland had fo fight with USSR right before WW-II, and during WW-II Finland was on a wrong side (but was smart enough to stop once germans start to require too much from them).

Now Finland have MUCH, MUCH better relations with Russia, compared to Poland, and making money, profiting from trade. Why? It is pretty simple - finns left the past to history books and museums (yes, there is plenty, and I like to visit that small museums once I have free time while in Finland) and concentrated on current interests of Finland. They not destroying any monuments, not trying to make some stupid moves to show someone that Finland is the country that should be taken into account. They just act as a country that had to be taken into account, and act in interests of Finland, not NATO, US, UK. Even EC interests is somewhat on a second plan (as long as it is possible) once it come to business. Finland not trying to put as much as possible foreign military forces on their territory - and finnish border is one of calmest parts of russian border.

So, if Poland will start acting predominantly in Polish interests, not de-facto under NATO control, it would make a difference. Be pragmatic and stop shouting insults every 5 minutes, and russians will respond by the same (may be not immediately, as they become a bit deaf to anything that they hear from Polish side after a years of **** throwing to all available fans).

None of us will survive Washington's insanity.

That's why Putin showed few new weapons, that is not designed to win a war - but to assure that attacker will not survive this war in any case, guaranteed. It caused panic in a Washington, and we see a row of really stupid moves last months. They cannot decide - is "window of possibilities" to make first strike already closed or it is closing right now. Should they start WW3 now, or it is too late? And what to do with very expensive military projects, that become obsolete before they completed, with US$21+ trillion of debt on a background?

I starting to pray!

I fear that you choosed right time to pray.

Just looked at BBC - front news is from Syrian town of Duma where by report of local "white helmets" sarine was used by syrian government forces. Obviously, Russia was blamed immediately by US DoS.

At the same time, as it was reported in the news, few weeks ago, russian military contacted Pentagon, and warned, that "chemical" training of rebels with US instructors in a al-Tanf area was not passed unnoticed. Attempts to forge a "reason" for strike to Damascus or other Syrian targets will be responded by strike not only to attacking aircrafts and missiles, but to carriers and bases as well.

Either anglos is totally stupid, either they deliberately seeking for war NOW.

It seems that someone on the other side of the Atlantic Puddle thinks that the next war will look just like the past - with factories overloaded with orders, and bankers counting profits and planning post-war crediting strategies to get the maximum profit out of former enemy. Stupids...
