What did Poland get out of the wars and struggles for others?

Strange assuption ... In my opinion Poland and France would beat you and everything would be ok. There were milions of Poles on German side of border but I doubt that Poland would like to change it.

Agressive Poland ... LOL :). I think that this war would be good for europe. Beaten Germans in 1933 would changed their mind.

Finaly invasion in 1933 was the best solution,

I find it rather odd that British forgets that Polish depended on them. Just

Hitler claimed Poles to be animials ... he has written it in his book. East was land to conquer. Game we have been playing was more than clear. He was German leader he had broken peace treaty.

We are talking 1933 here...Poland would be the agressor, trying to take over a peaceful and WEAK neighbouring country. Try to leave your polish-centric viewpoint behind and try to look at this from outside, as it would perceived by most countries in Europe and world wide!

Whilst we can argue that Poland and France might have beaten Germany on paper, when it came to the crunch both countries pussied out pretty quickly and needed to be rescued by those with the courage to fight. History shows this quite clearly, theres nothing to be done that can change this

How does it look from out side ? I don't care. If we look on what had happend durring WWII ... burned Warszawa, London, milons people had been killed.

You have no idea what you are talking about here

maybe it wouldn't had become a WORLD WAR, just Germans and Russians slugging it out between each other)

If only Poland could have just ducked.

Should protecting/saving Poland have been a priority for Britain even if it meant that Britain and the entire outcome of war would have been compromised?

The opportunity to fight a brief, localized war against Germany was therefore lost in September 1939. In hindsight, also lost were the opportunities to save millions of lives, to rid the world of Hitler, and to have prevented the creation of conditions that led to the Cold War. As General Ironside commented in 1945, after much of Europe was in ruins, "Militarily we should have gone all out against the German the minute he invaded Poland. ... We did not ... And so we missed the strategical advantage of the Germans being engaged in the East. We thought completely defensively and of ourselves."[21] And so they did.

They should start working their brains instead always so eager to fight (and being proud of it).

Diplomacy, negotiations and smart alliances instead of stubborness would have maybe got them farther....just an idea.

But as we could already observe in the EU THIS particular polish feature is alive and well...

Yes, it was never just Poland. Not just British but also French.

wind up merchants who dont learn from their mistakes

So you do think that Poland's situation should have taken precedence over all other matters?

Go to 1939 and what did you think Polish would do? Therefore we are not the ones without brains, eager to fight.

<div class="quoting">Harry:

IMHO it would have stopped WW2 from becoming a world war.

I believe it would have led to an even greater disaster with a loss of face for Poland and nobody caring if your country get's parted again between the victorious Germany and Russian...in the end nobody cares for an agressor!

What should Britain have done and when should they have done it?

What is even more shocking is your blatant and uninhibited lying, in public, even though you must know the truth if you want to claim any position in the debate. What happened at the end of WW2 and how Poles were betrayed was made possible only by the scumbags like yourself. Unfortunately, garbage like yourself is still well and alive. You are a lowly liar.

It is also notable for the exclusion of all Polish servicemen; hundreds thousands of whom served in the Polish Armed Forces in the West as one of the largest Allied contingents. The 303 squadron was the only Polish unit invited; it declined because the invitation was not extended to any other Polish unit, despite Poland being the fourth largest European ally during World War II.

In what had to be one of the more painful episodes in this illustrious unit and its nation’s history, the worst example of Western backstabbing comes when the U.S. and Britain recognize the post-war Soviet-puppet government of Poland, the most symbolic moment comes when the British are conducting their Victory Parade, on June 8, 1946, and the Labour government invites Communist Poland to take part but, lest Stalin be offended, bars the Poles who actually fought for England. The pilots of the 303 Squadron were the only representatives of the Polish Army invited to the London Victory Parade in 1946 but they were so offended that no other Polish units had been invited, nor the legitimate Polish government-in-exile, they declined to attend, watching from the sidelines instead.

Those [free Poles] invited refused the invitation and stated without hesitation: contingents representing each service or none at all. And so, none it was.

A bit of time lapsed, before the reasons came out to surface. Since Great Britain already recognized new Polish government in Poland, and thousands of Polish servicemen, legally Polish citizens, were still in England, it would be diplomatically correct, to invite a contingent of each service from Poland, and together, in fraternal unisons with the "local" soldiers, take part in Victory Parade in London.
At the time, we couldn’t get over the fact, that the British Government, dealing with Stalin for several years, were so naive as to think that the so called "Polish government totally subservient to USSR, would sent it’s contingents, to join their compatriots in England. We hated the communists, especially the Polish ones, and would rather vegetate abroad, than to return home and be dominated by them. Later on, we heard some rumors, that apparently, the Polish authorities were ready to sent a contingent of men, but at last moment, received a "message" from Moscow: " What’s going to happen, if your soldiers get captivate by fascists in England and never return?" That did it. As I said, it was probably just a spiteful gossip, but there is a kernel of truth.

..always trusting the French and the Brits pulling their nuts out of the fire if chicken came home to roast!They do this again today...trusting in far away countries like the US instead of working closely with their neighbours!

Poles composed the 4th largest forces in Europe during WW2, and only after protests in the British parliament and in the British press were a token few invited, as a consolation prize. They refused the breadcrumbs that someone unwillingly kicked in their direction because this is the way to behave honorably. They all risked their lives, they all should have been invited.

But then, honor is not something you wouldn't even come close to understanding.

Can you tell me the odds Poland had? Stuck between two sick dictators?

An anti-semitic liar is lecturing me on honour. He must be a Pole.

I don't see Germans and Russians giving gvarances for Poland and our peaceful life. Nord Stream is such example . You don't want Americans and we want peaceful life. Build Gas pipe lines thought Poland and we can fell safe and Russians and Germans can play global games.

You are completely resistant to any sense of reason and lack what it takes to understand things. Hatred blinds you and there in no know cure for it.
