Israel has a defense. Israel is a big boy capable of taking care of them selves. Like Republicans say it is time for people to take care of them selves.

I agree 100%. fact is - if poland needs any assistance, they should first look for it from their EU brothers.. like germany, and france.

we are just an atm to most other countries of the world. and I'm sick of it.

if it is american money, it should be spend on americans in america. PERIOD.

as I see it, any politician on capitol hill that doesn't feel this way should be voted out of office.

I'm gonna say that the Polish military of today compared to that of the Cold War is 100% better trained and combat tested. Having lived under Communism for 70+ years, Russia will be hard pressed to bring them back into the fold.

I once went to a Polish festival 25 years ago and a bunch of us got bad Pirogies. If Poland wants to conquer Russia, just give them some of those. Man were we sick. We all saw God that night. What a mess. Shit and puke was flying everywhere. I wished I was dead. NEVER AGAIN.

Yes I totally agree. All other countries should provide for their own defense and we must bring our troops home and close those bases and eliminate foreign aide.

Come to think of it, Obama makes me feel just like those Pirogies did only he doesn't go away the next day. He just lingers and stinks up the place. Lingers and lingers like the smell of communist dogshit on a loafer.

Yeah, then why is it still on the American tit to the tune of $5 billion a year? Not a "big" boy nor capable of taking care of itself . Time we ended their welfare.

Are you for real? The Polish army at this moment in time could not either defend Poland or, for that matter, fight its way out of a paper bag. You live in some kind of fantasy world and clearly you know zero about the state of the Polish military. May be, with lots of hard work and money, the Polish forces will become a serious force in the future - but that won't happen for another 20 years in my opinion - if even then.

The EU is a vast multinational imperial structure which totally dominates Europe. Sort of like the Roman Empire or the Ottoman Turks of today. Poland no longer exists as a sovereign nation anyway and no one threatens the ever expansionist EU.

So who really cares about defense cuts?

That's OK. We can always use the Georgians. They're cheap, pliable and expendable and based on precedent, we can always blame them for any inconvenient civilian slaughters.

You mean like in 1939?

When France and Britain GUARANTEED Poland's territorial integrity in case of attack .... and then did nothing when it happened!! LOL

Poland got swamped from the West by Germany, and from the ERast by the Soviet Union, but Britain and France didn't lift a finger.

Also, Poland keeps looking at the US as their protector now (missile shield and other rubbish).

Well, I find that dead funny.

Because, as a matter of fact, it's the US that betrayed Poland and gave it to Stalin! So much for protection.

At the 1945 Conference of Potsdam , Truman bartered Poland against the Persian oil fields occupied by the Reds. Stalin couldn't stop chuckling ...

So, who's going to betray Poland next time, eh?

Does Poland even have an military presence in Afghanistan? If not, take a hike, Ivan.

Defend your own country against others. Im tired of footing the bill for it. China is not happy with our spending habits.

That's not our problem. Perhaps you need to ask your government why they aren't very good at protecting your country.

No more foreign aide, until America is taken care of. Our people are dying due to lack of health care, jobs, and our infrasturture is a mess...no more.
