It’s a different time and a different Germany, I know, but nonetheless I’m guessing that the Poles rightly have a certain ambivalence about this.

Poles looking east and west. Every time war, Germany grabs them and Russia kills them.

Who would have thought that the Luftwaffe would ever be welcome in Poland?

A Polish soldier encounters a German and a Russian soldier, which does he shoot first?

The German - Business before Pleasure.

Does Poland not have an airforce? I thought the Polish Military was bigger than Germanys.

How “brave” the Germans are to fly in Poland when all the action is in the Ukraine.

The Eurotrash deserve nothing from us.

Are we supposed to be comforted by the Luftwaffe over Poland. Be careful what they wish for. Krauts will get off the leash eventually

Once the Germans were all warlike and mean
But that could never happen again
We taught them a lesson in 1918
And they’ve hardly bothered us since then

“It’s a different time and a different Germany, I know, but nonetheless I’m guessing that the Poles rightly have a certain ambivalence about this.”

They were asked to take the sirens off of the planes first, so, probably OK.

That's it, Germany has affectively lost the respect of the world. Say goodbye to the Nazi Gestapo and say hello to the Gaystopo.

Germany went from "We have ways to make you talk!" to "Let me rub your Würstchen."
