Poland’s Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has told Volodymyr Zelensky never to “insult Poles again” after the Ukrainian president suggested his neighbor was putting on a show over their disputes on grain exports.

The Polish leader fired back at Zelensky after the Ukrainian leader offered a veiled criticism of Poland at the United Nations’ general assembly this week, saying the dispute was “political theater” and that “some of our friends in Europe” have “made a thriller from the grain.”

On Friday, at a rally in Swidnik, Poland, Morawiecki hit back.

“I want to tell President Zelensky never to insult Poles again, as he did recently during his speech at the UN,” he said.

“The Polish people will never allow this to happen, and defending the good name of Poland is not only my duty and honor, but also the most important task of the Polish government,” the Polish prime minister added.

I’m from the era when Mad Magazine said remember when foreigners were funny? Poles are fine with me. But comedy does not care… everyone is open season for jokes. That was a better world!

Along with All In The Family, Married With Children, The Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, the original SNL, Seinfeld, In Living Color.

I’m glad as I read down this thread to finally see someone say that. thank you.

The whole premise of this article is that Zelensky somehow insulted the poles. The poles should be grateful that they have a buffer state between them and an aggressive Russia taking fire for them. The Russians have already said Poland is next.

You shouldn't trust any country, not even your own.

I remember seeing that movie but I don't remember that part. Been a long time.

That's not all they removed it from. They replaced the dogs gravestone plaque.
The N word name is gone.


The dog's grave before the change

A guy with a Polish name goes to an eye doctor who displays a chart with the line:

A-X-J-D-E-R-K-L-N

The doctor asks, “Can you read any of that?”
The Polish guy says, “Can I read it? I KNOW da guy!

“That’s exactly what Poland is angling for — a generous postwar slice of western Ukraine.”

Yeah, that’s “logical”, by Peeper standards.
