They should ask for reparations from Russia too. They also invaded

In time Poles will deal with that too. Germany though is in the same political structures & the EU so it's easier to start with Germany. We can't even make Russia give us back the black boxes & wreckage of the Smolensk plane (no country is ready to effectively support us on this)

Oh that's brilliant, WWII Started because Germany was so economically devastated after WWI that Hitler rose to power on the promise he would bring wealth and power back to the nation. Sure, let's repeat history, it's not like history is there to teach us anything (sarcasm)

@EmeritusRabbi. And I tell you this as descendant of Polish Jews, who were murdered by German Nazis. Telling what you have said you stand by the perpetrators and not victims. Shame on you.

Turnabout is fair play. Poland is one of the few countries who are not actively trying to commit cultural suicide.
