History among peoples always has relevance and especially in Europe.

What we agree on is that you shouldn’t add your emotional responses to my statements in a way that changes them.

Putin’s retreat of Kherson is a military disaster

Times Radio
Nov 12, 2022

“We’ve seen the break in the strategy bridge between political intent and military power.”

Putin’s short term strategy is to plug military gaps with conscripts, hold terrain through winter, and pray the West pushes for diplomacy.

Go cheer on Biden some more, your hero needs help. He’s not doing well. Your mental state and capacity tell me that it’s not worth the attempt to even explain things in extremely simple language that even you may have a possibility of understanding. I’ll just leave you to stew in the cauldron of your own intelligence which seems to know no equal. Please ensure to tune in tonight to the one true and glorious media so they can tell you what you’re allowed to think. Good luck comrade.

I don’t know of any war crimes committed in Poland at the horrific level of Ukrainians Nazi attrocities.

“The accounts of their actions terrified even the Germans. The cut babies out of a pregnant woman and put in a live cat and stitched her up. All of these things are documents. Poland has come out and confirmed that Ukraine REFUSES to apologize for its “dark past” and the world is willing to go to nuclear war all for these people?”

At Babi Yar, during the Ukrainian Holocaust of WWII, the Ukrainian Nazis murdered 33,000 Jews in the ravine over just two days. July 11th is the day of remembrance where the Ukrainian Nazis slaughtered 100,000 Polish and to this day, Ukraine has refused to issue a formal apology

“The Polish Association of Memory of Victims of Crimes of Ukrainian Nationalists documented 135 methods of torture and murder practiced by Ukrainian Nazis. Poland officially called the Ukrainian actions genocide. The Ukrainians have been protected by the CIA for decades ONLY because they hated Russians. They continue to protect the Ukrainian Nazis only because they are waging war against Russia.

The harder the Putin fan club trolls the worse it is for the Russian invasion, and they are trolling hard today.

Here is a rather mundane conclusion of one mass atrocity committed by Russians against Poland in WW2 from encyclopedia Britanica:

“The Katyn Massacre left a deep scar in Polish-Soviet relations during the remainder of the war and afterward. For Poles, Katyn became a symbol of the many victims of Stalinism. Although a 1952 U.S. congressional inquiry concluded that the Soviet Union had been responsible for the massacre, Soviet leaders insisted for decades that the Polish officers found at Katyn had been killed by the invading Germans in 1941. This explanation was accepted without protest by successive Polish communist governments until the late 1980s, when the Soviet Union allowed a noncommunist coalition government to come to power in Poland. In March 1989 this government officially shifted the blame for the Katyn Massacre from the Germans to the Soviet secret police, the NKVD. In 1992 the Russian government released documents proving that the Soviet Politburo and the NKVD had been responsible for the massacre and cover-up and revealing that there may have been more than 20,000 victims. In 2000 a memorial was opened at the site of the killings in Katyn.”

Bottom line: in a single major act, they killed 20,000 Poles

It of course should also be noted that Russia committed Holodomor against the Ukrainians in thee 1930s

I will also say that Poland unfornatnely does not like to admit that they killed Jews during the Holocaust. They did.

NATO isn’t fighting in Ukraine. The Ukrainians are fighting in Ukraine for their homes and loved ones
