While most of these maps are interesting, none provide any detail of the conflict in question. Actually the 38 conflict is only mentioned in brief, as is common with all literature on the subject. But that is beside the point. In 38 Poland created its own downfall, as did France when they chose to allied themselves with Nazi Germany. To solely blame the war on Germany is to ignore vital parts of history.
Revisionist history always seeks to lay blame with whoever is the weakest or least PC in that era so you want to kick Poland because Germany invaded Poland?
Revisionist of history chose to blame whoever fits there bill. The historians who wrote modern history chose to ignore Poland’s role in the Munich agreement. They wanted to see Poland as an innocent victim of an aggressive Germany and USSR. The truth is that the USSR turned on Poland only after Poland turned on the Czechoslovakia an ally of the USSR. Germany followed simply an old pattern using trouble with the German minorities to gain dominance over its neighbours. Poland suffered the same fait that they had prepared for the Czechs just a year earlier, on the same grounds. Then as now did Poland seek to gain advantage over its neighbours by aligned them self with the dominant power (Germany / USA). History shows that it wasn’t wise then and I don’t find it wise now. The US will turn on the Poles as fast as Germany did then, it is in there pattern.
Interesting indeed, line up with or behind some Jews (see the beginning of the thread) and a whole bunch of others who refuse to see the beam in their own eyes. In view of the fact that Poland has now aligned with US perhaps your admonition ("in the case of Poland, the lessons learned should be that if you sleep with a serpent you should expect to get bitten") should be trumpeted at them immediately (since Germany cannot possibly be a serpent that bites). ´
I think Poland’s foreign policy is short sited, and in the long run will cost them dearly.
