Russia never forgave Poland for the 1920 “Miracle on the Vistula”.
Stalin had craved for revenge since then. Of course, on the other side, Hitler also craved revenge for losing Danzig, the Corridor and Pomerania.
What was the point of this? How about focusing a bit more on current events...like blaming Andrea Merkel for the Islamic invasion of Western Europe?
Is he?
Molotov. Ribbentrop. Pact.
FU Pooty Toots. Your heartthrob Stalin cut a deal with Hitler to split Poland in two. But of course you know that, a-hole.
Uhhh, because Russians are always angry at Poland?
What is today little known is the Russians kept their piece after the war. To add insult to injury, they made the allegedly independent post-War Polish state a Russian puppet and communist dictatorship for 30 years.
Oh, and let's not forget the Katyn Massacre, where the Russians murdered over 20,000 Polish officers and tried to tag it on the Germans.
Yes, the Germans double-crossed the Russians and invaded Russia after gobbling up most of the rest of Europe. Yes, the Russians eventually won a glorious victory and truth be told were largely responsible for the defeat of the Nazis on the ground. But let's not forget the facts Putin finds inconvenient.
Because Poland exists, that’s why.
OK, Vlad ole buddy ole pal-— NOW, please explain the FOUNDER of your lifetime employer before becoming a permanent criminal totalitarian dictator— the founder and leader of the first two Soviet state-security organizations, the Cheka and the OGPU, who established a secret police for the post-revolutionary Soviet government.
Felix Dzerzhinksy— a Bolshevik Born into Polish nobility, from 1917 until his death in 1926.
He was one of the architects of the Red Terror, and removal of the Tsar-Loyal Cossacks (who were definitely anti-Polish, and thus Putin is expressing— amazingly a Cossack point of view against the survivors of Stalin and Hitler’s “graces” of annihilation.Anti Polish, because they are “anti-Semites”- sure, that will wash, Vlad).
A Polish Bolshevik Leninist was your Founder ole Iron Felix—(Lenin of course was not at all anti-Semite— what bullcrap, and Stalin, being a Georgian orthodox thug murderer and bank robber— naw, he wasn’t anti-Semite... naw). What utter rubbish from Vlad (he must be making pals with the Rothschilds who stole the Romanov treasury and took it to their Bank of England).
Clearly this is Trump’s fault...
Russia has no call to denigrate anybody’s history.
“They are a highly sensitive subject in Poland, which outlawed suggestions of complicity in Nazi war crimes in 2018. “
There were both Polish institutions and individuals who were complicit in horrible war crimes, especially elements of the Holocaust.
Enough that the new government saw fit to make it illegal to suggest otherwise.
Not unlike Turkey and the Armenians.
In a nutshell, this thread demonstrates everything wrong with the European mentality. They are getting wrapped around the axle of events that happened 70-80 years ago. And they are just as happy to get bitterly angry about insults and offenses from 1304 or whenever.
Their petty smallness is why they will never achieve true greatness no matter what political union like the EU they cobble together. They are a small people not fit to shine the shoes of a true American.
