Life / Are Polish people so chaotic and disorganized like Germans say? [89]

The current Refugee Crisis in Germany is ain some ways a byproduct of German society being extremely order and authority based. Germans are to an extent gullible towards Government. They believe what the Government run media spoon feeds them. This is why the Nazis prospered and why refugees are allowed to run amok today. If the Government says so, the German follows along obediently.

News / Referendum in Poland about so called refugees. [56]

Hahah. And then what? There are Billions of refugees on this Planet.

Europe is more likely to start sinking boats than they are to continue open borders into the summer.

News / Polish magazine causes outrage with cover showing white woman being sexually attacked by 'migrants' [57]

Mafketis, not sure what the end game is. Imprisoning (ie Scottish Man this week for anti-refugee posts) all opposing viewpoints? This will blow over and the new migrants will out perform the failed migrants before them? Projections of million more migrants coming in the near future are incorrect?

Maybe they are banking on Polish expats returning from the West and over time forcing social and political change? I notice the contrary occuring: "Never let Poland resemble London, Paris etc"

Sidenote: youtube "Metro Moscow Paris" by uploader Tikolt. Shocking what Western Europe has devolved into. Just as shocking: how are Poles not seeing whose side we should be on

I certainly believe in that. USA would love to assist in destroying the welfare system in Europe. Almost over-night the rhetoric in American politics went from "We should strive to duplicate what Sweden is doing - to - we do not want to be Sweden". There are so many angles USA has and will continue benefit from, it is difficult to focus in on just one.

Your 2nd paragraph is very interesting. Something I will look into.

News / Mass protests needed in Poland in front of American embassy [60]

few years ago i would never believe NATO and US would be arming and training al Qaeda,ISIS ect.

In the West, most things end up blamed on Russia - no joke.

Watched the Republican debate yesterday
"It was a mistake overthrowing Gaddafi"
"It was a mistake not backing rebels in Syria (to overthrow Assad)"

Same crap from Hillary. Mind blowing really. You have the most simplistic and rather ignorant people (American population) leading the strongest power. Are we surprised by the results? The general tone from Americans is "as long as it doesn't affect our soil". You have Americans judging Muslims in Europe when in reality their black population is five times worse!

News / Poland directly threatened by ISIS. Do Islamists planning terrorist attacks in Poland? [390]

Is this the Official Thread for the 'Summer of Terrorist Attacks' ?

AP: ISIS has trained 400 fighters for European bloodshed

- They are planning attacks in bunches. This creates a larger kill zone. Eventually they will do 3 attacks in seperate locations and hope to catch the authorities in the traps. There is a reason they are training for this long. They are learning the tendencies of the authorities and how they react to these attacks

This is extremely scary. There should be serious talk of active military being brought in for added defense. I can foresee the militaries of Sweden, Holland and Austria being completely demoralized. Just like Belgium currently is. And USA is not getting involved til at-least January when a new President is sworn on. 2016 will be bloody.

Love / Turkish girl is going to meet her Polish boyfriend's family - needs tips. [47]

Good luck Elif, it will not be easy especially given the current political circumstances. You did not give us enough background in the OP: are you/are they religious. Do you and your boyfriend live in Poland?

18 years old. You are so young and innocent and that is why I expect them to be gentle with you. DO NOT get too offended if they view your relationship as "1st or Blind Love". Ultimately, if you are pretty it will win over the Father :D. Focus on the mother: offering to help with cooking/cleaning. Offering to learn how she does certain things. If you win over the Mother, you are set.

Love / Turkish girl is going to meet her Polish boyfriend's family - needs tips. [47]

I live in Turkey and he lives in Poland. But now he is in Turkey.

Having spent time with Turkish families, I think you might find the Polish 1st meeting somber and even awkward (at-least in the beginning). This is where alcohol enters (they will most likely drink) and eventually the conversation/mood changes to what I have experienced with Turkish gatherings: louder and more free-styled.

Poles can be viewed as nosy but honest. So expect difficult questions from the very beginning to lay everything on the table, so you guys can move forward.

Beyond that, in terms of greetings or eating style. I do not believe you will find it too different than what I've experienced in Istanbul/Turkish-Germany.

^ Great point on learning how to talk. Ultimately, if the female in the relationship is Polish/Turkish/etc: she can teach the "grand-children" Polish/Turkish/etc to some extent. But in your guys situation, the male is Polish. So it is extra important for you to illustrate some sort of effort to know words/phrases/holiday saying.

Speaking the native tongue (you are visiting them) is always a good traveler move. You need to do it in this scenario.

Bieganski, I meant both are baggage but you cannot compare that photo from [closed off] Israeli event to a public victim mural days after an attack committed by their religion. If that were a Polish flag, I would have personally rushed him. In the video online Google:"women caught brussels tearing up" this is an old woman.

> I agree with your assessment. IMO #1 The lack of education keeps the women backwards and they end up turning a blind off to the shady business in the house/neighborhood.

You live in Chicago? You would have an easier time in Poland. Height isn't as important because Poles aren't in love with sports. More about your knowledge/behavior.

You would be perfectly fine in the major cities, if that is what you are asking. Just learn a few of the major phrases and people will admire your effort. It's good you enjoy history because Polish can be a quite confusing one :D

Some Poles your age (under 25?) wear Zoo York especially in big cities. Hipster is how i would describe the fashion in Poland your age. But Men don't really wear hats in Poland, definitely less often than USA. When they do it's some hipster style. Good thing you aren't wearing an American sports hat hahah

Polska is without a doubt the place to live in Europe for the 2020's. Somewhat because Western Europe will be up in flames.

News / Poland -- Europe's only counterweight to Russia [271]

I'm not saying it needs to be run by a dictator, but it surely can't be ruled by a puppet-president, if you know what I mean.

Indeed, Russia requires an extremely strong centralized government. They border so many nations. Consider how USA can just rely on the Atlantic & Pacific Oceans

Speaking of Western Europe

Germany is banning sexy women in ads, billboards. Because they provoke Migrants to rape.

> Poles have immigrated for decades but 1 summer of Islamic migration and Germany's culture is integrating to their way of life

Definitely just a coincidence that "the new Germans" are directly against these sort of ads. You can guarantee when pork begins to be banned from venues and institutions it will be blamed on some sort of "modern health risk". Don't be a gullible German.

["I am worried about pork being taken from school and canteen menus," German Minister for Food and Agriculture Christian Schmidt told the Funke media group.]

Western Europe is changing in order to integrate with "the new Germans". Poland will be forced to also integrate or face political manipulation.

UK, Ireland / Are there too many East Europeans, Poles in West Europe now? [47]

It is already occurring.

> European Parliament lawmakers adopted a resolution on Wednesday, saying they were "seriously concerned that the effective paralysis of the Constitutional Tribunal in Poland poses a danger to democracy, human rights and the rule of law." The document was passed by a 513-142 vote with 30 abstentions in Strasbourg, France.

Although non-binding, the resolution could result in the EU taking further measures, which might go as far as suspending Poland's voting rights in the bloc.
