A old Pole once told me, he fought the Germans for revenge and the Russians for pleasure. By now the Poles have had it with the Russians I’m sure.

We should prepare to setup some nuclear misslie silos in Poland. That should make Russia shut up.

Good idea. But then don’t complain if Russia puts missiles in Cuba or Venezuela .
