As some of you know, I have been encouraging FReepers to send messages of thanks to those nations that have supported our war efforts in Iraq. Go to www.embassy.org to send a message. Here is what was sent to the Polish embassy, and what was returned.

Subject: Thank you

Thank you for sending troops and supporting America. Please tell me products that you sell in the United States. I will look for them because I am anxious to return favors to our friends. I hope I can visit someday.

Dear Sir or Madam,

We were very pleased to receive your word of recognition on the Polish support for the United States of America.

Poland and the United States share a bundle of common values and principles including democracy, freedom and liberty for all. Over the centuries both countries supported each other in their struggles – Kazimierz Pu³aski and Tadeusz Koœciuszko under the command of George Washington fought for the American liberation, and the Americans supported the Solidarity movement in the early 1980s.

I would like to inform you, that your e-mail has been sent to President of The Republic of Poland – Aleksander Kwasniewski.

I would also like to recommend you to visit the Embassy’s website www.polandembassy.org and the website of the Foreign Ministry of Poland www.msz.gov.pl. Also worth exploring is www.polandtour.org where you can find information on travel to Poland.

The best way you can harm France is by NOT traveling there.

The best way you can help Poland is by traveling there instead.

Poland is a beautiful nation with a rich history. Warsaw and Krakow rival any other city of Europe in the beauty of their architecture and their historical significance.

Cool.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Your message was actually forwarded to the President of Poland!

Excellent Freep!

[OpusatFR]

No problem.

Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Spain, Portugal and the rest of coalition members are all the family list of products and travel.

Sis and husband cancelled trips to Germany and France this summer. Will never set foot there ever.

Sword in hand we will regain.
March, march Dabrowski!!!!

[KingPin]

Ping.


This is excellent!

[dfwgator]

Zakopane in the Tatry mountains is nice too, or so I've heard.

[try phecta tom]

DOBRZE!

Eastern Europe is a beautiful region that has been blighted, both in the American imagination and reality, by totalitarianism. I hope the recent inclusion in NATO and their support for the coalition in the Iraq war will be the beginning of some new relationships and apprasials.

What's the big deal? I get letters all the time from these important people from Nigeria that are going to arrange for me to make millions:)

[A_perfect_lady]

My letter:

To you who represent the brave nation of Poland: THANK YOU for being a part of the "coalition of the willing" and for sending troops to remove Saddam from power. His is a murderous, despicable regime that warrants removal.

Not only are you supporting the United States and Britain in their willingness to do what is right, but you are also making the entire world a safer place for democracy and freedom.

We appreciate you, we thank God for you, and we wish your troops, as ours, Godspeed in this most important mission!

[doug from upland]

Great message. Please take the time to go to www.embassy.org and write a note to our other friends. I have sent many.

Jeszcze Polska nie zginela!

WOO-HOOski!

[MikalM]

Just sent them a nice thank-you for their support during this war -- AND for sending us heroes like Pulaski and Kociuszko during our own "war of national liberation" back in the day.

[JustPiper]

Doug thank you! I wondered how to thank my countrymen since they gave us support. And I wrote them a long letter ;)
