Yes indeed, we don’t have neighbouring countries who dream of world domination, and ethnic cleansing, we North Americans don;t feel the need to start a massive fucking war every 50 years…
really ! statement of the year from an american.
na you prefer every 10 or so
Hey, at least we don’t start wars that engulf half the planet, we just find some small country with no nukes to steal lunch money from,
well at least we taught your something useful
i present to you ! our NATO ally
this guy doesnt mix his words
Kids gonna go home and put a shotgun in his mouth.
Oh my god, I saw this a few years back, and I was doing impressions of that reporter for a couple years after. Classic special fOOrs, the unit comPAKt, the operation well plAANd, the strike TAKTIKALL.
No, we weren’t. Countries like Estonia were Soviet, my country was a communist puppet state. Only the easternmost part of Czechoslovakia became part of Soviet Union (now part of Ukraine).
There is a lot wrong with the EU, but anybody who likens it to Nazi or Communist occupation needs to participate in exchange program with North Korea.[quote=“TheDivineInfidel, post:9619, topic:21032”]
there were no victors in WW2

US fared pretty well (with all due respect to the fallen ones).
I hate to be that guy, but…
[quote=“SirWarriant, post:9621, topic:21032”]We were the only nation that wasn’t pretty much bombed to rubble, so we emerged as the most powerful nation on the planet

Well more importantly, you loaned money to everyone involved. Your government to allies and your corporations to Nazis (prior to US direct involvement).
So not only everyone needed to rebuilt, they also had to repay.
FYI the Germany reduced to rubble is a myth. Their 1945 postwar industrial output was still higher than 1939 prewar, even with all the damage. Its just that the pictures of city centres make it look like everything was fucked, but it was very, very far from it.
Meanwhile they stole intellectual property from all around Europe and capitalized on it for the next 20 years. Prime example being VW Beetle which was a ripoff of Tatra V570/T97.
“Military age men are rounded up.”
Says it all.
Didn’t that happen after the war?
Poland had higher losses relative to population size.
But hey, let’s not forget that Poland took part in the 1938 invasion of Czechoslovakia side by side with Nazis and Soviet Russia in 1939 invasion of Poland side by side with Nazis.
your country sided with the soviet union . there is nothing further to say .

[/quote] the EU is undemocratic , elitist crap that deserves to be banished along side said organisations
whats the issue ? standard stuff , they’re searched , finger prints taken and registered and if possible a back ground check made to ensure they’re not Taliban fighters or bomb makers .
correct , but it was a result of the war , going with the idea that no country would have empires or colonise etc there was also growing desire for independence in a number of the nations we ruled such as india …nothing a few troops couldnt mop out of course hahaha
the general global attitude changed after the war which lead to support for it to be dismantled and the creation of the UN played a large part.
it was taken apart to quickly however and power vacuums were left and many of the nations collapsed into corrupt states . it was dismantled with the heart rather than the brain .
That’s akin to saying that Jews supported Nazi Reich because they worked in factories around concentration camps.[quote=“TheDivineInfidel, post:9639, topic:21032”]

The shit you sometimes poo on the keyboard leaves me speechless.
The difference is that’s a joke the EU is not.
If you’re happy to be ruled by an indirectly elected president and commission then good luck to you but that’s not what I want .
You seem to forget the communists were elected to power in 1946 with 38% of the vote . I don’t remember the Jews voting in hitler
First of all, it was 31%, but that is not the main point.
In line with Yalta agreement Czechoslovakia was de facto occupied by Moscow’s intelligence officers who were pulling the strings, including the killing of Jan Masaryk.
The popularity of Russians who liberated most of the area from Nazis, especially after Munich Betrayal, was understandable. Those 31% however could not lead to a puppet state - that happened only after Moscow orchastred coup in 1948. Hundreds of thousands were sent to prisons and concentration camps and tens of thousands were murdered, including probably my great grand father, who was conveniently found hanged after refusing collectivisation of family farm.
In 1968 the puppets tried to cut the strings and we got Warsaw pact invasion and over 20 years of Soviet army occupation.
Did communist party gain significant percentage of votes? Yes. Was that a direct cause of Czechoslovakia becoming puppet state of Soviet Russia? Hell no.
Polan is apparently trying to exchange support for Cameron’s anti-immigration agenda for NATO troops on Polish-Russian border.
Would you serve in Poland if it led to less Poles in UK?
i dont think we should have to "Exchange " anything with poland over an internal affair of the UK . why is it any of fucking polands business ?
poland can request NATO support if they wish and i would serve my country where ever and whenever it required me to do so .

[/quote] im not bothered about "poles " as such im bothered about the bigger picture , the numbers overall Cameron’s "anti-immigration " plan isnt worth crap it has no effect on our ability to control immigration .
the vast majority to come here to work and better their lives , simply capping benefits doesnt bother these people at all
Because that is what UK committed to when signing EU primary treaties.
You can get out of EU but you can’t get out of your obligations as long as your in. Unless those obligations are renegotiated.
Aren’t the Poles the largest group of EU immigrants?
It seems there are only 35K Czechs, of which I suppose 25K are gypsies. Capping benefits would very likely have significant effect on large number of them.
Isn’t half that number coming form out-of-EU countries, i.e. people over which immigration UK has a sole jurisdiction unimpeded by EU law?
first of all it was 31.2% but thats not the main point
like it or not the communists won the election by 12.8% . the Czech people voted them in . as the germans voted hitler in. In both cases it came back and bit the people in the arse when both parties cemented their power but the Czech people are as responsible for the communists taking over as the germans are with Hitler .
[quote=“snejdarek, post:9643, topic:21032”]
Was that a direct cause of Czechoslovakia becoming puppet state of Soviet Russia? Hell no.
[/quote] of course it was . had the Czech people came out and supported a capitalist style party and they won the election. For starlin to make you a puppet he would of had to all out invade and risk WW3 .
instead your country kneeled before him
Please do tell me about foreign agents acting within Germany and kidnapping/killing members of opposition during the Nazi rise to power.
Please do tell me how Nazi rule was preceded by betrayal of democratic allies and 6 years fascist occupation which led to killing of most of democratic elites in their country.
which shows everything wrong with the undemocratic EU . how is it right that an foreign power has that sort of influence over a democratically elected parliament in regards to its own domestic policy ?
irrelevant who comes from where im not interested in race , nationality or anything such as that im simply interested in my government who is voted in by the british people to have FULL control over who and how many migrants arrive in this country each year .
