?? We, my husband and I. Our children. Our cousins. What's wrong with you? Racist. |
LOL if that was true, it wouldn't be constantly crowing about how it's at risk from Russia's aggressive posture. Don't be silly. |

Now, let's see what REALLY happened, shall we?
Clash Report @clashreport The Polish Embassy in France says the media “misinterpreted" the diplomat's words and took them out of context: Careful listening to the entire conversation makes it clear that there was no announcement of Poland's direct participation in the war." What happened, dear? He no speaka Fransez too well? |
Passionately! Without reservation! "The Polish embassy in Paris later issued a statement in an attempt to walk back the remarks, tweeting how some media had misinterpreted the remarks by failing to give the context in which they were made. According to the statement, Rościszewski was merely trying to persuade allies to give full backing to Ukraine and rejected the notion that the diplomat had promised Polish engagement in the conflict. They claimed he had instead merely warned about the consequences and implications of any Ukrainian defeat. The Polish embassy went on to state that such a defeat would make it far more likely that Russia would commit acts of aggression against Poland and the Baltic states, as predicted many years ago by President Lech Kaczyński. When an embassy or a ministry has to issue a statement to interpret the words of their officials, you know they have put their foot in it. In reality, the ambassador’s remarks were irresponsible and damaging. They reinforce Poland’s image as a country hellbent on getting involved in this war. As Talleyrand once said, a mistake is worse than a crime. We cannot help but recall another Polish ambassador in France in 1938 who wrote a pamphlet entitled “Poland the superpower.” A year later, the whole of Poland was under occupation. " https://rmx.news/commentary/polish-diplomacy-in-crisis-after-ambassador-to-france-claims-poland-will-declare-war-on-russia-if-ukraine-loses/ Did they have DCUM in 1938? Some idiot back in the day must have claimed that "Poland is waiting, ready, and easily able to destroy Russia completely." Couldn't make it funnier if I tried. Plus ca change.. |
DP. Let me tell you a little story. You'll like this one. It's all about pierogi and dill pickles, and it's not from 1938. It will make you laugh! Imagine if Poland entered the war with 247 Leopard II's with well-trained crews started rolling towards Moscow? What would stop them? But oh, that's not all. The Polish government has a few tricks up it's sleeve. "Hyundai Rotem is planning to partner with the Polish government to develop and produce 800 K2 Black Panther class tanks." https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2020/01/205_282115.html For those who are not familiar, the South Korean K2 is considered comparable to a top-of-the-line US Abrams M1 or German Leopard 2A7. Now imagine that scene - 247 Leopard 2's, plus 800 K2's.. that's a lot of pierogi. Oh, but wait! It gets even better! Poland signed a deal for not 800, but 1000 tanks! "1,000 K2 tanks, 672 K9 self-propelled howitzers, and 48 FA-50PL light combat aircraft, with production benefits for Poland as well." https://breakingdefense.com/2022/07/polands-massive-tank-artillery-and-jet-deal-with-s-korea-comes-in-shadow-of-ukraine-war/ Hmm. But I'm sure you're telling yourself Poland has no air power.. well.. except for the F-35's.. but they only have 8.. So I'm sure you're curious what else does Poland have? Main battle tanks: 1000 (Leopard 2A4, PT-91, PT-91MA1, T-72, T-72A, T-72M1, T-72M1D) Artillery: 1200 (120 mm (5 in) or greater) Air Force Jet Fighters: 128 ( 32 MiG-29A/UB, 48 F-16 C/D Block 52+, 48 Su-22M-4K/UM3K ) Navy Frigates: 2 (Oliver Hazard Perry Class) Corvettes: 3 (Kaszub class, Tarantul Class) Submarines: 5 (Kilo Class, Kobben Class) That's a lot of pickles.. |

Over 95% of Russia’s army is now on the ground in Ukraine, and they still cannot even take Bakhmut. Russia’s army in 2023 is pathetic. Pathetic and unmotivated. Poland would steam-roll Russia’s army in less than one week. And they would gladly crush Russia; Poland is thirsty for revenge. |
| Glad to be a tax payer and funding this war, lol NOT! I rather take all this money and hand it out to people that need it here at home, heck Biden could forgive more student loans which I am against but rather support that effort than this war. It’s just gonna drag on for years with no resolution. |
