"Despite this positive record, Poland not only received no military aid (or any other aid)

Hold on here.... Did we not just finish a few rather large bases in Germany and moving them to Poland? That's a huge pile of money leaving germany and heading for Poland. Thats worth more than any Aid. Polish forces will be training with and working with our Airforce and Army.

There must be a reason for this discrepancy. Is there a security issue that's not being mentioned here? Has Poland recently experienced an influx of Muslims?

Poland not only received no military aid

Regarding this portion, President Bush requested 400 million dollars at the congress to support the modernization of military of the countries that supported US in Iraq and Afghanistan, and requested 100 million dolars for the military of Poland. Was this not news in Poland yet? I am not sure about the Visa but I hope Poland will get something out of the Visa deal, if not everything.

Poland needs to give this transition time. It was not that long ago they were a part of the axis of evil. Western Europe has been our friends for the past 50 years. It will eventually happened, but to demand that it happen quickly is wrong on their part.

Honestly I would prefer some serious military aid than "join the visa-less club".
