New guy says Hello"

Greetings,

My name is Scott. I live in Minnesota, US. I've collected militaria for about 15 years with a main interest on post WW2 Warsaw pact.

I'm happy to be here and hope to make new friends and contacts, and one day visit Poland

Best regards to all!

Hi there mate! Let us know in brief obout your main areas of interest and we will guide you through.Regards.B

Hi All
Look, Scot from US had send a greetings for You. In period of 11 days lot of people want talking with him. Its OK...
But tell me please why, if (4e)some Rusian asked You for someth., You are not so generos? I think here (in this so special historic site) its very adequate qestion - you dont think so?

Give us some examples, if you want to accuse us. There is a Russian member on this forum, ded, and I don't remember him having any problems with anyone of us? Some Poles don't like Russians, some don't like Germans, some Russians don't like Poles... Nothing new. But on this forum, if you need help - you will get it, no matter if you are from Russia, Germany, Zimbabwe or an other country. We are all enthusiasts and any foreigner is welcomed. We can always share our knowledge. Why not from Russia? Plenty of Russian relics have been found and there were problems with its identification. Thanks to ded, many of them were identified. A Romanian member could help us with identification of Romanian artifacts, a Czech - with Czech, an Italian... and so on... So... wylye, I don't know where are you from, but welcome. And for Scott - welcome! Both of you - feel yourself here at home ;)
Regards from Brooklyn, NYC.

Here You are 4.e. http://www.odkrywca-online.pl/pokaz_watek.php?id=176932#177023
maybe its not enought adequate sample, but just try compare please - how many responder had Scot faund :) and, (over all, this well informed) rusian guy - isnt it?

Look, I am not a truble finder, i am a Pole, and sometime I fill shame for my tribe - in International realtionship (just see our top of representative in gov.)

Wylye ask yourself a simple question:
How many users of this forum speaks english ? And how many of them have a unique skill понимать российскую кириллицу. И сколько из них знает, как написать кириллицу на латинской клавиатуре (to understand russian cyrillic. And how many of them know how to write cirillic on latin keyboard)? Most of todays youngster know or is learning western languages, like english, german, spanish ...

In last 20 years there was a huge whole in education in eastern languages. Even if one know a little how to speak russian there always is a technical problem with writing in cyrillic. Was it really so hard to understand ? A lot of people speaks english and they do so not because of loving US. Nowadays this language is international, like for example latin was in medival. Nothnig weird in this fact.

Probbably Youre right in all of points... But I meant about coded Polish disaste to Rusian. Thats enought. I think we have exhausted this theme... Lets talking now, about famous faithful military alliances in 1939, and especialy about Locarno agreaments... Or something other - depend on You :)

...or obout Katyn and thousands of polish officers murdered it these woods)or 17th of September 1939 or Russian Army waiting for Warsow Rebelians to bleed to death.Lets maybe talk about 50 years of polish enslavement under Red beast or lets talk aobout Polish borders before and after II WW.History reaches far behind these dates.But our society still suffers the consequences.Well how can anybody be amused by the fact that Poles do not like Russians.Is it ignorance or lack of knowledge?

Yeah! And that is why - Poles should hate Russians - for ever (not Soviets), isn't it?
So why you don't call the world to stigmatize Germans (not Nazis) for 2W crimes?
Lets talk abt frontiers, you would like back WEST Polish boarders to the pre 2W position?
I agree - there is lot of reasons antipathy between (an elders) both Polish an Russians, but really our generation should reproach contemporaries on Volga river - times of 2W? And talk them every day - what is wrong with theirs fathers? You think they don't know theirs sad history? You think Lenin, Stalin, Beria, Dzierzynski etc. was murder just Poles? You know how many millions Russian was killed by these beasts?
And what, modern Russians should listening historicist's who lives on Vistula river, and year by year theirs... scouts standing on guard before monument in to Katyn should apologize polish nation for crimes - NKWD?

No, my friend, I don't like this. (Although at last 1 persons from my familly was killed in Katyn)

You said about 50 years of polish enslavement under Red beast"?
Your welcome!
But... first please explain, Who is really traitor
I mean - Locarno, I mean - Yalta, Teheran, etc.
Who left Polish army in 1939r fighting with Germnans - alone?
Who lets Soviets (Not Rusian - that is 2 other mentality - you know that) to kipping Poland under enslavement?
Who lets? and for what price?

As You see my English is poor, but I am sure You can copy my.

Surely I Can.To the reasonable extent.Any further conwersation is pointless hovewer.We will not reach agreement as truth is as some people say just like 'ass' everyone has its own. I agree that our post war situation is an effect of being abandoned by our allies.Not for the first time.I agree that our politicians did many mystakes.What I do not understand hovewer is why post war Russia continued Stalin and Lenins policy of lies.Apology cannot raise the dead but can be the reason to try to forget ..Take care.

I think that our American guest is long gone after what he has witnessed here form the above posts. And I am not surprised.

Some one comes along interested in our culture and what do you do? You show him your worst side - you start arguing and scare him away. Good job!

Do you know this old proverb? Where you have 2 Poles you will get 3 opinions".

For some reason our belowed guest has received red card.I wonder why? Its probably our national haspitality.Or in my opinion he was unsuccessful in his attempts of being friendly and showing his interest in our culture..

Say hello for all. I'm from Silesia , welcome everybody.
