Unfortunately, Walkure is right. They had unbelievable numbers of planes in the area, and the then-new MiG-29s and Su-27s were being introduced as well, which didn't bode well for an easy air fight against the soviets.
Reagan supported Poland anyways. If Britain and France had half the courage and half the honor of Reagan back in WWII, this discussion would not be neccessary, a huge number of people would have lived their lives happily, and died free, rather than die under the pall of communism(either of old age, or by execution), and millions upon millions wouldn't have been killed, since WWII would have ended really quickly.
God bless the righteous, Reagan and the Pope among them.

A couple of years ago Buchanan was on C Matthews show and mentioned that churchill had sold poland out, and clearly stated why. I know some people have issues with buchanan but he apparently knows more history than any other public figure on tv today and I have yet to hear a compelling argument about why he was wrong.
Please elaborate
