You're judging a people you know nothing about.
If you reread the article, you can see that the issue is mainly about the visas. You might have an argument if Poland got the visa requirement removed and they were still complaining, but that's not the case. Poland hasn't even been given that.
Secondly, Iraq is hardly a war to save western civilzation. Gimme a break!
France and Germany have no visa requirement, but Poland does. This is the issue!

Then what IS it about?

I said the article is not an accurate reflection of the majority of Polish sentiment. I guess you disagree.

You must have read a different article than the one posted:
Polish disenchantment is rooted in bruised pride and money. More than 70 percent of Poles opposed the Iraq war, but they believed Washington would reward them with huge oil and reconstruction contracts.
Instead, Polish companies have about $70 million in rebuilding contracts and a $13 million weapons deal with the Iraqi army.
Government officials are also negotiating a $100 million deal for Poland to modernize Iraqi tanks. These contracts and U.S. investment in Poland are far lower than what Poles expected.
I didn't write that.

It’s about defeating international terrorism and the nations that sponsor/harbor them. The same goals as the rest of the internationl war on terrorism. I guess in your mind, it’s all about oil.
