Nor did Switzerland but they survived intact. Of course Switzerland did have the advantage of being well established as a political unit.

You're an ignorant moron, Switzerland had mined all passes and was the only country that'd exchange german money otherwise Germany would have overrun it in a week.
Chicago Pollock:
Switzerland was a cohesive political unit, Poland was just starting out.

Rubbish again, Poland had a stable govt since Pi³sudski took over but then again you're a troll who doesnt know sh*t about Poland.

They did what they could to survive. Its called the carrot and the stick.

Pilsudski should have focused on stabilizing Poland instead of picking border conflicts with its neighbors. He wasn't that good for Poland. If he was, they would have been better prepared for Germany.

BTW where did Germany get the money to rearm after the German depression of the 1920's?

He did stabilize Poland, i'm not going to teach you polish history if you know polish google sejmokracja and you'll learn just how stable Poland was (and it was).

Mostly USA, later on Russia.

Poland never had any guarantee with Bolsheviks on its eastern border and I think they lay claim to Poland as it use to be a Russian empire so the war was a war of necessity.
That is your history lesson, if you want to know more visit your local book store.

I'd agree with that but Pi³sudski himself knew of the forthcoming danger and had an awful sense of foreboding! Stable is a good word but security was paid lip service to by RS, his successor. That opened the door for destablisation but not from within, of course.

Marek11111:
No it will not be faster just look at the equipment Poland has. It will be the end to Germans to invade Poland.
Poland will win in any fighting between Germany and Poland

I just took a look at the map of deployment of German and Polish forces in September of 1939 and this time it would not be an end of Germany or anything like that, but now Poland has a much better chance to succesfully defend herself than she had in 1939, at least we don't have to worry about the northern and southern flank plus they have to make over the Oder river.It would be nice though to upgrade the air defence with russian s 400 systems so we can hit hitlerowców soon after they take off in Germany. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Dywizje_wrzesien_1.png#file

They maybe as skilled and as courageous as any other soldiers, but that stupid boy scout salute needs altering. Big hefty blokes giving a boy scout salute, just makes me roll up laughing.

What do others thing of it?

Marek11111, good post. I've always wondered about the origin of that salute.

No, I am not Polish. I am a Chinese restaurant owner, who thinks that Polish soldiers should salute like normal soldiers

There is as much chance of that happening as there is of a lesbian Jew being appointed pope.
