"if the Russians try to invade Poland, they will be in for a rude surprise."

Yep! Meeting horse-mounted cavalry again will be one helluver surprise.

That was a deeply unintelligent comment.

Putin will not touch Poland because any Russian incursion would result in his humiliation.

Today it's the Poles who have the technological advantage.

The Poles were able to hold out as long as they did against the Soviets because they had superior training and the ability to improvise.

The Soviets won because they had tanks and an endless supply of cannon fodder.

Poland still has superior training and the ability to improvise, it has tanks and air support now, and Russia's supply of cannon fodder is nowhere near what it used to be.
